Zeebox was the last item featured on this week’s Something for the Weekend gadget round-up. It’s a free app available for iPad owners, coming to iPhone and other platforms soon. Zeebox is a social media app dubbed ‘the new way to watch television’.

Zeebox works with Sky and Freeview, and it knows what you’re watching. It features a tweet stream relevant to the TV show you’re watching, and shows you which shows are most popular in real time. Zeebox also allows you to buy relevant stuff, and view relevant links connected to whichever TV show you are watching. Tim Lovejoy said that plans are afoot to stream live TV through the app, so you can watch and interact at the same time, on the same device.

Gadget girl Lucy showed off Zeebox’s live Twitter stream and news links. She said it was an essential hub with which to access everything related to the TV show you are watching. News, links, tweets, information and more. On top of all this, you can connect with all your facebook friends via this clever app – to chat about the show you’re watching with it’s built in messenger, or just to let your friends know what you’re watching and what you think of it. Peter Jones said that Zeebox was undoubtedly the future of television and TV interaction. He loved it.

 Samsung Galaxy Tablet as seen on Something for the Weekend

The brilliant Samsung Galaxy Tablet was the second of this week’s Something for the Weekend gadgets. The first tablet from Samsung is a sleek and small entry into the multimedia tablet market. Ella Williamson said that this Galaxy Tablet was really giving the iPad a run for its money. It is smaller than the iPad, and has 4 killer features which make it an enticing prospect.

The Samsung Galaxy Tablet has an SD slot. It has an internal memory of 16 GB, but with the SD slot you can considerably extend the memory with a 32 Gig SD Card. It also functions as a phone thanks to it’s SIM-card slot. The operating system of the Samsung Galaxy Tablet is Android 2.2 which gives you access to Android Market and hundreds of thousands of apps. It has both a front-facing and a back-facing camera with video recording function in portrait or landscape. Finally it supports flash websites, putting it ahead of the iPad in web-browsing terms.

All in all, the Samsung Galaxy Tablet is a fantastic bit of kit, and at around £500 it is a real alternative to the iPad.

Something for the Weekend priced the Samsung Galaxy Tablet at £500 – £600, but we’ve found it much cheaper at £469.

Top 5 Tech Tips as seen on The Gadget Show

Computers & Software, Electronics, Gifts & Gadgets, The Gadget Show No Comments »

On this week’s Gadget Show Jason’s top 5 dealt with a number of ways you could enhance, advance and improve your tech life. Here were his top five tech tips:

5. Q-Waves Wireless USB AV Kit

 Top 5 Tech Tips as seen on The Gadget Show

The Q-Waves Wireless USB AV Kit costs around £85 and it sends a video stream of whatever your laptop or PC is showing you to your TV, essentially turning your TV into a wireless monitor. You can use it for watching things like Sky Player, BBC iPlayer and other media on your TV in high quality.

 

4. Vitamin D Video

This is free software which essentially allows you to turn your webcam into a home security system. It recognises when people come in or go out of a door for example, and emails you when they do.

 

3. Mobile Air Mouse Pro

This nifty little app for your iPhone or iPod Touch essentially turns your iPod into an advanced trackpad, or wireless mouse with which you can control your PC or Mac.

 

2. Earphone Cable Fold

Wrap the cord around your hand leaving the jack hanging a little. Pinch the middle to form a bow and wrap the remaining cord around, pushing the jack through the middle and pulling it tight. Hey Presto – no more annoyingly tangled earphones.

 

1. Tinfoil Wi-Fi Booster

Another free tip from Jason. There is nothing more annoying than losing your wi-fi signal halfway through an online gaming session, but you can use this tip to solve the problem. Get some tinfoil, Make it rectangular and place it next to your router, so that it can reflect signal from your wireless router towards the room with your wireless laptop, gaming console etc. You will find that the signal is automatically boosted. A great tip, and it’s free!
