Play.com Voucher Code (£5 off)
September 1, 2008
The Play.com voucher code I highlighted a few months ago has now expired, but I know quite a lot of people coming the site are still looking for a Play.com voucher, so here’s the latest one that I’ve found.
You can use the following Play.com voucher code to get £5 off when spending £50 or more on an order which is a pretty good deal, especially if you’re looking to spend around £50 – I mean that’s like 10% off, that should make for a cheap deal on whatever you’re buying!

August 26, 2008
A new PS3 160GB? If you’ve just bought the brand spanking new PS3 80GB and you’re in a bad mood anyway…..don’t read anymore into this!
Sony have announced that they are to release a 160GB model of the PS3 in October 2008! - Only 2 months after the release of the 80GB model! Also, I very much doubt from what I’ve read that the new 160GB version will have PS2 backwards compatibility or any of the features of the 60GB model.

August 9, 2008
The Sansa Fuze is the latest MP3 player from the memory giants – SanDisk. The first thing that you notice about this device is the glossy finish to the front of the MP3 player and the back of the Sansa Fuze has a grippy, rubberised back which makes it feel secure in your hand and provides a nice design contrast to the front.
The Fuze features an iPod-like wheel interface, however the wheel is rubber and actually spins – I’ve found this to be a great method of controlling the Sansa Fuze, it allows for precise control and the sense of real feedback in operation. It feels remarkably good in use – in fact, I prefer this to the touch control on my iPod Classic as I’m always finding myself moving one option too far in the menus on the iPod.
It has a 2GB capacity which isn’t bad for a device that is priced around the £50 price mark – however the real defining good point of this device is that you can then expand this capacity by using a cheap Micro SD memory card in the slot on the side of the device. A nifty little feature from a company who are one of the most well known memory card manufacturers!

July 25, 2008
How cheap are memory cards going to get?
Around 18 months ago I bought a 2GB Micro SD card for my Orange E650 mobile phone which cost me just over £20 at the time, I’ve now come to buy a memory card for my new HTC Tytn II mobile phone and found that I could get an 8GB Micro SD card for just £17.99.
This kind of storage on a mobile phone is huge! Think of all the photos and videos you could take/record, you could pretty much capture and document your life! Or you could take a lot of entertainment with you wherever you might go, think of all the MP3s or movies/tv shows in Divx format you could fit on a device with 8GB – that’s as much as many MP3 players including some iPods!

July 21, 2008
Do you need convert VHS onto your computer or DVD? Well you can now get a USB VHS Converter, so that makes me ask the question - “Do you even remember VHS?” - Personally I remember sneakily taping a certain leg crossing/uncrossing scene and trying late at night to repeatedly rewind and play it without my parents hearing.
If your answer to the question was NO, then this is grown up talk, go do your homework! If your answer was YES, then you’ll know that my parents (and probably the next door neighbour) heard the horrendous stop, start and rewind whir that all video machines made. The switched on couple that my parents are, knew exactly what I was doing - I feel a little sick! Well that’s enough of me sharing, down to business!

July 20, 2008
Sony are set to release a new model of the Playstation 3. Instead of the cheap Playstation 3 40GB model now available, there will now be an 80GB model which will sell at the same price of £299.99.
Apparently the memory card slots and PS2 emulation will not be making a return on this new model, which is a shame. But I would have thought that this model will feature the new Dualshock Sixaxis controller that was released only a few weeks ago.

July 14, 2008
I recently wrote about getting cheap car insurance online having bought my last 3 car insurance policies online. I have to say that I’m pretty happy with buying my policy online, but what about car insurance for a woman?
In recent years there seems to have been quite a few specific companies targeting the ‘car insurance for women’ sector of the market, these are usually very apparent given their style of marketing campaign, for example Diamond or Sheila’s Wheels.
I’ve often wondered if these style of adverts and approach to car insurance actually persuade you to buy from them as they are very different from the norm in some cases - some would put me off completely, but then I’m a guy. Are you a woman who has bought her car insurance from one of these companies, do you prefer to organise your car insurance online? Do you respond well the the style of advertising and approach these companies take?
