The iPod docking station looks similar to a lot of the other docking stations on the market, but looks are where … [Read more...]
Dork Review: Dishy iPhone cooking app

Dork Review: Braun Oral B Triumph with Smart Guide 5000
The question is, do you really need to spend £80 on a toothbrush? There's no point asking me, I'm the girl who spent £100 on a toothbrush. If you ask me, you're going to get a resounding "yes". Why's that? Because if you spend a decent amount on your toothbrush you'll have a toothbrush that lasts … [Read more...]
Dork Review: Motorola Digital Video Monitor MBP35
For those occasions when hearing your baby scream just isn't quite good enough, Motorola brings you a range of Advanced Digital Baby Monitors so you can watch it holler too.
