The Toshiba Thrive 10.1 inch 8GB Android Tablet is a superb Tablet, and out of over 330 reviews it has received 4 stars out of a possible 5, so people must be happy with it!

If you are interested in a powerful Android Tablet that has good quality resolution, a powerful NVidia Tegra Dual Core processor and many storage options, then the Toshiba Thrive is an option that is very affordable – this could well be the tablet that rivals the popular Samsung Galaxy and the Asus Eee Pad Tablets.

This review primarily covers the Toshiba Thrive 8gb, but also touches on the other two storage options with the Thrive, the 16gb and the 32gb.  Buy the Toshiba Thrive 8GB here and get free shipping.

- $368 (8gb)to $580 cost - Released in 2011 - Uses Android 3.1 OS - Weighs 1.6 lbs / 0.73 kg - Measures 10 3/4 inches x 0.62 inches x just under 7 inches - Has a 10.1 inch screen - 8GB, 16 GB or 32GB storage options - 1280 x 800 HD resolution - 5 mp and 2 mp cameras -WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity - 7 hour battery life

The Toshiba Thrive offers different storage options, so you can get just what you need and pick the storage that suits your particular budget.  Generally you would go for the highest storage you could afford as you will probably want to expand your tablet in the future.  However even going with the lower storage still gives you room for apps.

The Thrive has a non-slip interchangeable rubber back plate which means that your tablet is not so likely to slip whilst you are in the middle of using it – some iPad users may well relate to this particular problem.  It is also more comfortable to hold for long periods which is important when you are going to have something in your hands for any length of time.

With the Toshiba Thrive it’s really easy to personalize the design as the back plate has the option to be changed for one of six colors.  These may cost a bit more but they will help your tablet to stand out for others, and be different from the more standard black.

This is a fantastic gift for the guys (or gals), it is a remarkable flying toy, and is recommended for those over fourteen years old – although as you will read further down in this review, several people feel that it can easily be controlled by someone younger than this.

This is modern technology in the palm of your hand! The helicoptor only measures around 7 1/2  inches long. It is fully functional and comes equiped with the very latest Gyroscope technology which is why it has become such a hot favorite within the remote control world.

You can charge the  Syma S107/S107G R/C Helicopter either from the usb cable, or from the controller itself (this uses AA batteries).

This model gives a lovely smooth flight, and although it is recommended for aged 14 and up, it could be controlled by someone youger (with the necessary supervision).  Just about everyone who has reviewed the  Syma S107/S107G R/C Helicopter  says that it is very easy to fly, and this is especially true for users that are making a comparison to other model helicoptors that they may have flown previosuly.

The helicoptor goes up, down, right, left forwards and backwards at a well balanced speed – not so slow that it becomes boring, nor so fast that you are not able to control it properly.

The helicoptor itself is made of metal and is very durable, and the rotor constructions means that the odd crash landing or hitting into walls does not spell disaster. One reviewer even commented that the  Syma S107/S107G R/C Helicopter is virtually indestructible. Read the rest of this entry »

You won’t need to worry about the LeapFrog LeapPad not being able to cope with anything children can throw at it, it is both sturdy, sleek and designed to handle all the wear and tear that kids will likely put it through – it can be shaken, plipped and turned, plus it includes a title sensor so that they can dynamically control any of the games they are playing.  The color touch screen is a generous 5 inches and the perfect size for all ages to be able to interact and to learn.

 Air Swimmers Extreme – Who Will Get The Most Fun From Them?

Air Swimmers eXtreme – a real “flying fish” that actually flies through the air all by way of a remote control. You can make the fish turn and go up or down. As it moves along it is very realistic even though we know it’s only a toy floating in the air!

At the moment you can buy the Air Swimmers in two designs: clownfish (this species was made famous in a  recent Disney film), and shark. Both of these are made with a lightweight material that won’t harm anyone or anything they may come into contact with.  The clownfish frolic around in mid air, and children of all ages will take great delight in watching it with all its lovely colored markings. The shark is on the lookout for invisible prey as it is ‘swimming’ around the home or office. Yes, this is not a gift for children alone, adults get a huge amount of pleasure from the Air Swimmers.

The Air Swimmers  are able to swim through the air as they are filled with helium, but you need not worry they are easy to refill when needed – just buy a helium tank or take them to a local store that has one. Those that make the Air Swimmers state that they will stay afloat for around two weeks for each fill, however, this will of course depend partly on your elevation above sea level and some buyers have stated that a fill only lasts them for a few days. Even so the Air Swimmers are a great gift idea for young and old alike as it is quite easy to get them refilled.  Read the rest of this entry »

Lalaloopsy Silly Hair dolls are a great favorite as most children love having the ability to style their dolls hair, and the Lalaloopsy Silly Hair dolls certainly allow this! Most toy dolls have synthetic hair and this is really hard for a child to style and often ends up being matted. Luckily this is not the case with the Lalaloopsy doll.

The hair on the Lalaloopsy doll is bendable so the children can easily bend, turn and twist the hair into all types of shapes, or if they prefer they can straighten out the hair. They can change the style of their dolls hair as often as they want to. The Lalaloopsy will never object and always be at the ready for a new hair style!

Whatever style your child thinks up, the Lalaloopsy Silly Hair doll will oblige, so if they want to have silly curls, pigtails, straight up or straight down no problem. The Lalaloopsy doll has beads, bows and other great hair decorations can easily be added, so you child can have great fun styling the new doll with the brush that is provided.

When your child opens up the Lalaloopsy Silly Hair doll, they will find that it also comes with a little pet. Even better, the pet’s tail comes complete with a bendable strand that is the same material as the doll’s hair so this can be styled too.  One  thing is for sure, these are going quickly and they are sure to be one of this years top selling toys.   The dolls are suitable for children aged four years and upwards.  You can buy the Lalaloopsy Silly Hair Doll here

The Black & Decker Workmate WM425 is a great product for someone who loves diy, or that simply likes projects to get stuck into.

Buy At Huge Discounts Here

The WM 425 workmate is a heavyweight steel design and as such it can hold up to 550 pounds, yet it is still lightweight and easy to move around. 

The working surface is strong and stable and it is supported with rubber feet.  The one handed vice clamp system will let you adjust all the clamps together or each one on an individual basis.

The center panel is totally removable so you can easily make the Workmate into a bench tool stand or a spacious workbench. A couple of people that have bought the product did mention that using the Workmate as a tool stand was a great idea. 

Generally the Black and Decker WM425 Workmate is a top of the range design that you could expect to get years of use out of, just like the other Black and Decker products

One of the great things that various reviewers loved  about the Black and Decker WM425 Workmate is the fact that it is truly portable and easy to fold up to a nice compact size.

The one slight issue that a couple of people had was that it was not that easy to put it together, although to be fair everyone did manage this, it just took some a bit of time.  The packaging for the product was also a bit lacking from some suppliers, but this was down to the companies selling the product rather than the product itself.   Unfortunately, this can lead to your new workmate being delivered damaged.  Luckily, you can easily overcome this by buying the product direct from an established company such as Amazon.
