Coolness Roundup *added to list

It lies in the same vein as my other gadgety sites Engadget, Gizmodo and eHomeUpgrade so – expect my tech lust to increase over the next few weeks while I catch up with the back issues… If you want to add the podcast feed to you […]

Yeah… 100Gb/s – that’s what I’m talking about!!
