Video: Ferrari California folding hardtop

Crave With a roof that retracts in under 14 seconds and super-fast hard drive-based sat-nav, it's not just a pretty face. Remember the stunning new Ferrari California we showed you photos of yesterday? Here it is in the flesh, as our colleagues at CNET...

Ferrari California: Sometimes roofless, never toothless

Crave The hard drive-based sat-nav system is a relief. Ferrari has just unveiled its latest stunner, dubbed the California. It's a coupe-cabriolet, or in layman's terms, it has an electrically operated roof, which retracts in under 14 seconds.

Apple's September event: Definitive rumour round-up

Photos: Hands-on with the iRiver P20

Crave There was just something that wasn't ticking all the boxes for us, though, and we're convinced it was solely the result of the chunky device's interface and nav. Would you go to Crufts to look at a stuffed version of a dog that hadn't been born yet?

Photos: Samsung i8510 8-megapixel camera phone

Crave Interestingly, Samsung has squashed a touch-sensitive navigation pad in the middle of the four-way nav key. 'Anything you can do, Samsung can do better' is what we imagine Samsung's mentality is when it comes to developing its mobile phones.

Photos: Lightning electric supercar recharges in 10 minutes

Crave Most importantly though, it has a massive touchscreen attached to it, so using the sat-nav shouldn't be very difficult. That's right -- this bad boy runs entirely on rechargeable batteries. It'll put your dad's Ferrari to shame, too.

Crave Podcast 90: Gadget lovers are arrogant? Get lost

Touchscreen titans: HTC Touch Diamond vs 3G iPhone vs Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 vs Garmin nuvifone

Crave Garmin nuvifoneDefinitely one of the more unusual entries into the touchscreen market, the Garmin nuvifone is more of a sat-nav with a built-in phone -- as you would expect from a previously sat-nav-only company.

Motorola Rokr E8 vs Sony Ericsson W890i: Music, mano a mano

Crave On the E8 you can use the scroll wheel, whereas the W890i relies on a nav key, which you have to press up and down. Moving sharply away from the familiar clamshell design of the Razr V3, and the thoroughly disappointing Rokr E1, the Rokr E8 is a...
