Toshiba Hard Drive pretty cheap

PC World have got a Toshiba 1Tb hard drive for £49.99 online (£65 in store). You can only buy two, though! Seems like a pretty good price, cheaper than competitors. How long can it last?

TV

OK so the 75" TV I mentioned before was a little crazy. So how about a more reasonable, £429.98? What can you get for that? a 40", 3D, Samsung TV, with two pairs of glasses and HD Freeview. Not bad eh?

Save Those Pictures

Bit of an electronics storm today. Just got to thinking about storage and portability, making sure you've not only got stuff saved, but can take it where you want. So this is Western Digital's 1TB My Passport portable hard drive. That should do it. Not bad at £69.99. Buy online, pick up in store.

Inevitably, A Tablet

It had to come. Not just a tablet, which are all the rage, but a Blackberry tablet. Seems such a pity if Apple, or Samsung start to corner markets. So Blackberry it is; the 7" 64Gb Playbook.

And whilst looking, I saw this MacAfee anti virus 2013 Plus which is £14 online (£25 in store)

Digital SLR Camera

Thinking about cameras and it isn't long before I'm looking at the current crop. I have a Sony A500 which is absolutely ace so I know the Sony brand for cameras stacks up well. I decided to suggest the a37K though as it is that bit cheaper but has everything a 'standard' photographer would want  As is usual these days it comes with a lens (18-55mm) that is good quality and ideal for landscapes and portraits.

The mount is the same as Minolta cameras used to use, so any autofocus lenses of theirs would work (in case you have a Minolta autofocus film camera). And at 16 megapixels you can expect to be able to enlarge images with little loss of detail. I love cameras.

I've given a link to Curry's as it is competitively priced and you can go in and shout at someone if there is a problem after ordering online!

Girls to Boys

No I haven't found a sex change clinic, but have just been reminded that I have been gearing everything from a male perspective. So if you are a female searching for a gift for a chap, romantic like, then perhaps some Calvin Klein eau de toilette spray. You know it's for blokes because it is called Man.

One for Me

Being intrigued by all things photographic and having some old film cameras, this ceramic mug is perfect for me. I found it by asking the question 'how do I find something unusual?' and saw the find-me-a-gift website. You might like something very different, they stock some rare and strange things.
