Griffin Armband - For iPod Shuffle 2nd Generation - Black

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Accessories
from: Griffin Technology

December 05, 2007
I bought this to hold my ipod shuffle whilst I run. I know that the shuffle itself has a clip, but I find it difficult to clip it high enough up my clothing to avoid having yards of wire dangling about whilst I run. It's also handy to have the shuffle somewhere it's easy to skip tracks and adjust volume, rather than clipped to the back of my shorts.

In retrospect I would have preferred a plastic node to wrap the spare wire round, but in the end I just wrap it round the armband itself. All told, a useful little item that's well made and easily adjustable. (A word of warning - if you're like me, you'll need to wash it regularly and it will attach itself to your sports socks.)

Sennheiser MX75 - Twist-To-Fit In-Ear Stereo Sport Headphones - Green

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Accessories
from: Sennheiser

October 12, 2006
I mainly bought these for use with my Sony Ericsson W810i Walkman Phone. The sound quality is good, and the volume control is essential for my purpose (Google "W810i hiss" to find out why). The main drawbacks for me are:

(a) The discomfort. It does get better after a while, but is never really comfortable.

(b) The little rubber bits have a tendency to fall out. Fortunately, the MX55VC comes with a few a spares.

Strand Gold Plated Scart to Scart Lead 1.5m

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Accessories
from: Strand


Ordered this cable at the same time I ordered PVR from another supplier on 18th June. PVR arrived on 20th.
The cable finally arrived this morning, 25th.
Happily the PVR came with its own cable-however,the downside to this was that the cable was cheap and caused a lot of "ghosting".
The Strand cable has cured most of the "ghosting", and, as such, is very good value for the unit cost and P&P- if you can afford to wait for delivery, that is.

Mains Wall Travel Charger for Archos 405, 605 & 705

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Accessories
from: INNOV8 GB


Having taken my whole dock plus wires on holiday before this charger is great as it is so small. It doesn't charge quite as fast as the dock but this is far out-weighed by its smallness. Would definatly reccommend it to any archos owner and would also reccommend INNOV8GB as a seller as it arrived well packaged the next day.

Imation DVD+RW 4.7GB 25pk Spindle

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Accessories

February 18, 2007
Using these discs to record video is not a good idea. When playing back the video, all i got was unknown meaning that i could not watch what i recorded. I recommend going for either the maxell or verbatim brand as i have not had any problems so far. Basically these discs are used as only frisbee's and coasters with the occasional one that works only once.

Sony Ultimate MDR EX90LP headphones with wide dynamic range

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Accessories
from: Sony

August 22, 2006
I also own:

A pair of MDR EX85LP which are slightly bass heavy until you crank up the volume, then the mid-range cuts in. They are very detailed.

A pair of cheap "MDR EX90LP" from a non-Amazon seller. These look identical to the Amazon supplied units, although they came in a blister pack. There are a couple of differences however; the earbuds do not fit the carrier well - they get a little stuck - and the sound is compressed and "muffled" or "confused". They cost £12 and I guess you get what you pay for at that price, I got a fake.

Now I also own a pair of these Amazon supplied MDR EX90LP at roughly £50.

These Amazon supplied MDR EX90LP are supremely detailed. The bass isn't as heavy as the EX85LP. In ... Read More:

Fuji FinePix S5700 Digital Camera Case

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Accessories
from: FUJIFILM

April 23, 2007
In case you're wondering, this fits the S5800 too, just check the dimensions in the specs, they're identical.

Only annoyance (and this is really minor) is that it comes with its own strap while the camera already has one, and they could have designed the case with that in mind.

Creative ZEN Clear Case - Case for digital player - acrylic - clear

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Accessories
from: Creative Labs


This case is absolutely essential if you own the Creative zen. You can put it in your pocket without fear of it getting scratched. I have been using it for nearly a year now and the case is still in excellent condition. the player looks like new!

The problems are that it lets dust in too easily (so you have to remove it occasionally for cleaning) and be careful that the player and case are spotless before putting the player in. as it is a tight fit, a grain of sand, for instance, could be pressed into the screen.

The other drawback is that there is no access fo rthe memory card slot and the recess for the headphones is made deeper.

These problems are minor, however, and the case will ensure you enjoy the fabulous Zen ... Read More:

Leather Case Cover for Apple iPod Touch 8gb, 16gb & 32gb

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Accessories
from: INNOV8 GB


I'm sure these cases are not made of real leather! They are, however, good quality vinyl imitation leather. Like most of the cases on sale, they cover the daylight sensor, requiring you to set the display brightness to manual. This is not a problem, but potential buyers should be aware.

The fit is good and the touch screen is well protected by the closed flap, which has a stiffener inside.

Good value at £3.98 ...
