The taste of something fine: Arcam DT-91

Crave Arcam has carved out a fine reputation for good-quality audiophile components and the DT-91 is clearly of the same stock. We've looked at tuners with aristocratic aspirations before, but none so Maharajan in their vaulting ambition.

CES scrapbook: Sights, sounds and general craziness

Crave It isn't a stock product, but might be available on special order. This is how CES began, with a queue for the pre-show press event. And this is only half the queue -- it wrapped round a corner and went on as far again in the other direction.

Widget toothed Tiger

Crave For starters there's a dictionary, foreign language translator and stock ticker. We've been playing with Apple's brand new Mac OSX Tiger like frenzied Ritalin kids. Released last week, this was one of the most eagerly awaited products of 2005 and...

TMX Elmo: Best Christmas present ever?

Crave Indeed, it's currently out of stock at Amazon.co.uk, and you'll be lucky to find it at Argos or Woolworths -- we know, because we tried to buy one. In 1996, Tyco launched a toy called the Tickle Me Elmo that cost a mere $30 (£15).

The Apple factor...

Crave That's why they're languishing as remaindered stock while people queue for miles to pick up anything with a half-eaten fruit on the front. Apple's the best brand on earth at the moment, say marketdroids, beating Google into second place.

Speakers' corner: Eclipse 307s

Crave Dixons don't stock the Eclipse 307BABK (pictured), so they won't have any speakers that reproduce the original waveform. Do you know how to pick a pair of good MP3 player speakers? When some mean looking day-release youth offender barely contained...

A vision in white: Miglia TVMini

Crave Given the aerial's tiny size, it's pretty impressive, especially considering we tested it with a stock LCD screen -- no high response time here to mask the inadequacies of digital TV. If, as the electronic prophet in David Cronenberg's Videodrome...

MP3 goes dual-core: Teclast C150
