best things to shop


Jabra BT-125 Bluetooth headset
We figure you'll have packed in your mobile, so here's a budget Bluetooth headset that you can take along with you. The BT 125 weighs just about 14 grams and offers upto 8 hours talk time and 170 hours standby time. This over-the-ear Bluetooth headset is available at leading retail stores for approximately 40$




Sony-DVP-FX810
If you really like your entertainment with you wherever you go, then its well worth the effort to carry the Sony-DVP-FX810 portable DVD player along. It offers DivX support too along with multi-format support for VCD/ SVCD/WMA/JPEG/ Kodak CD/ CD-R/ RW/DVD R. The player sports a 8-inch screen large enough to enjoy videos when on the move. This player comes with the features like 5.1 Channel with Dolby Pro Logic codec, Disc Resume Play, Built in Stereo Speaker, Parental Control and Screen Saver control function. Also at Rs 12,990, this won't exactly burn a hole in your pocket.




Sony Playstation Portable
This one’s for the incessant gamer in you and will come handy if you have to put in long hours of travel. We don’t really need to talk too much about the Sony PSP but if you haven't got yourself this lean mean gaming machine then now is a good time to buy it. It's available at an 198$.


GPS Navigator
These aren’t as popular back home, but if you are travelling overseas, especially through the road, GPS is a must. Garmin's new Colorado devices are just what you need, especially if your destination is someplace in the United States of America. There’s Colorado 400t for the hiker, 400i for the fishing enthusiast and 400c is a coastal companion. Of course 300 offers a worldwide base map. With 15 hours battery life, 3-inch screen, this GPS at $499 is quite worth the money spent. For those back home, SatNav’s latest personal navigation device is a cheaper and more effective device, retailing at just Rs 12,000 and offering comprehensive detail on locations within the country.




Memory Card
Plenty of variety here. Depending on the type of memory card accepted by your digital camera, you could either go for an SD, microSD, MMC or a Memory Stick in case of Sony digicams. A Sandisk 2 GB SD card is available off ebay for Rs 875. Memory cards are easily available at electronic outlets and these are a must



Ultimate Hi-Fi earbuds
This is the ultimate headset for your phone. A snug in-ear format, with soft rubber earpieces to block out external sounds, this one offers a tund filter for greater bass and treble effect. These earbuds come with a built-in microphone in the cord itself along with a answer/hang-up button. While, the ultimate earbuds were (like many others) made for the iPhone, non-iPhone users can also use, i.e. if $150 seems like a reasonable price for it.



Techcom all-in-one card reader
This card reader can read upto 36 different types. This will come handy if you’re traveling in a large group with each one carrying a different type of digicam. Just insert the memory card in the card reader and transfer pictures and videos at ease. This is available at a retail price of Rs 452. Quite an inexpensive purchase.



Altec Lansing iM7
Here’s an iPod dock for those who want to immobile their iPod for some time, perhaps to tear the house or car down with your Pod music. This stylish looking dock is compact with portable speakers, an enhanced subwoofer, a built-in iPod cradle along with a remote. Not exactly brand-new but the iM7 is among the popular docks available today. Priced at Rs 13,450, this dock is available at various online shopping sites as well as most leading retail outlets.
