Wacom Bamboo: Pen tablet in mouse-banishing shocker

Make a Dick Tracy of yourself with Fossil

Crave The Abacus has a touch-sensitive, 160x160-pixel display and comes with a foldable stylus that tucks neatly into the buckle. Most of us had a childhood hero. If you're a girl it might have been Wonder Woman -- with that bright smile and pleasing twirl.

Toshiba Portege R400: Sexy, smart and in your lap

Xun Chi 138: The world's smallest mobile phone?

Crave There's a stylus tucked round the back, but this will inevitably get lost, so you'll probably end up using a matchstick. Taking a rare break from watching people set fire to their faces on YouTube, we stumbled across the Xun Chi 138, a mobile phone...

Nokia touchscreen iPhone-a-like resurfaces
