Nintendo Wii accessories are usually pretty pointless but we’ll make an exception for CTA Digital’s Wii Inflatable Kart.

The Asus Eee Tablet is the slightly odd name for Asus’s new ebook reader. While the Windows 7-packing Eee Pad is aiming to unseat the iPad, the Asus Eee Tablet wants to take on the Amazon Kindle and, according to Asus, neutralise your old school paper notepads too.
iPad sales have soared to two million in two months, double the amount shifted by the original iPhone in its first 60 days.

That’s bad news if you had your fingers-crossed for the imminent arrival of an iPad rival from Asus. Read on to see whether the Eee Pad specs will be worth the wait…
The Cowon J3 doesn’t do apps. It won’t multitask, and it doesn’t have Wi-Fi to get you surfing online in hotspots.
