A lot of people liked the idea of Google TV when it was announced last month, but we suspect we weren’t alone in not entirely ‘getting’ it.
Logitech has launched a low cost universal remote control, designed to replace the growing clutter of remotes no doubt currently festooned all over your living room coffee table.
If you’re fed up straining to hear the weedy ‘bssch bssch’ of your laptop’s feeble built in speakers, then Logitech’s new Laptop Speaker Z205 could add some much needed oomph.
If the effort of getting up off your seat to change something on your computer is proving all too much, Logitech’s new Touch Mouse app could prove to be a real treat if you’re an iPhone or iPod touch user.
The free app turns your handset into a wireless trackpad and keyboard for your computer, letting you point, click, scroll and type while you sup beer and slobber all over your sofa.
It’s great having a living room stuffed full of the latest gadgets, but with just about every gizmo coming with its own easily-lost remote control, parlour games of “hunt the ruddy remote” and “where’s the chuffing battery gone?!” have become commonplace in some homes.
Last year’s attempt to replace our flotilla of remote controls with a snazzy all-in one universal handset met with deeply disappointing results (we tried the One For All Kameleon 8 – it was awful), but we decided to wave a bigger wad at the problem and give the Logitech Harmony 785 Advanced Universal Remote a go. And we were impressed.
According to a study last year, the humble computer mouse is set to die out in the next five years to be usurped by fancy-pants touch screens and facial recognition systems.
That’s as maybe, but we still need one to get around our Thinkpad laptop right now, so we invested in the wireless Logitech VX Nano, a sleek black and dark grey number with natty rubberised side panels and slinky contours that feel good to the touch.
We’re not quite sure it lives up to Logitech’s “World’s most advanced keyboard” claim, but if you’re looking to cut a stylish dash at your desktop, then you won’t find many keyboards as likely to impress as the Logitech diNovo Edge.
Looking like a slab of shiny machinery that’s been teleported off a sci-fi set, the diNovo is a beautifully designed, Bluetooth-powered slice of sleek, superslick black and silver.
We tested the keyboard last year and seeing as we’re still using it daily, we thought we’d update the review and also add a long term verdict at the end.
