This week’s Something for the Weekend gadgets included a tablet/ereader hybrid, a health and fitness wristband and a digital smart pen for sketching.

First up was the Kobo Vox, described by the Something for the Weekend gadget girl as a cross between an e reader and a budget Android tablet. Unlike the highly rated Amazon Kindle it has a colour LED backlit display. It also has a touchscreen and audio capabilities – it will read the book to you if you would rather listen than read. The Kobo Vox runs Android 2.3 with web browsing and email capabilities, though you don’t get access to the full Android app store. It costs £189.99.

The final gadget on Something for the Weekend this week was the Wakom Inkling digital pen. Attach the sensor to any piece of paper, draw a picture and the Wakom Inkling reproduces that image straight onto the computer. The Wakom Inkling pen is clever enough to distinguish between light and heavy strokes of the pen.

Jeremy Clarkson caused quite a stir during his appearance on The One Show recently, when he suggested that the people on strike in the UK should be rounded up and shot. Jezza is no stranger to controversial comments and not the type to keep his mouth shut around sensitive subjects – he once described Mexican food as ‘refried sick’. Though many people despise Jeremy Clarkson, many more people love him. He’s a true ‘marmite’ character.

Jeremy Clarkson’s The One Show outburst has probably done wonders for his new book’s publicity. Entitled Round the Bend, his new book has been described as Jeremy Clarkson at his brilliant best. It’s packed full of interesting facts and anecdotes about every topic you can imagine, including (not surprisingly) cars. This book will make a great stocking filler for any Jeremy Clarkson fan at just £8.

The Sparkling Gold Cuvee was enjoyed by Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby on the This Morning sofa recently, and went down a treat. This Sparkling Gold Cuvee also comes in Rose and Strawberry flavour.

Like QI, the intelligent quiz show hosted by Stephen Fry? Then you’ll love playing the QI Board Game with the family at Christmas.

Stephen Fry and his counterparts chew the fat each week, producing interesting anecdotes and facts in abundance. The QI Board Game is based on the successful TV show – players take turns to answer interesting and challenging questions to move forward, but a wrong answer means the klaxon sounds and you have to go backwards.
