Ever since I was a child I have dreamed of having my very own planetarium and Segatoys appear to have finally created a device to make that dream a reality: The HomeStar Pro.

The HomeStar Pro is a small spherical device that can project 10,000 stars on your ceiling or wall at home - just like a real planetarium. The unit is portable and the teacher in me thinks the HomeStar Pro would be an ideal teaching aid to learn about our universe.

WINPLUS’s range of home automation products appear both easy to use and install, with the only real difficult part being choosing what to automate!

The Ultimate Starter Kit contains five different controllable power outlets as well as a universal remote control that allows you to activate multiple devices at the touch of a button as well as replace all your other remotes.

All WINPLUS starter kits are upgradeable and expandable, allowing you to start small and end with a completely automated home.

We’re not sure exactly how easy these kits are to install and use, but if we can get one into the lab for some testing, we’ll be sure to let you know.

Eton's FR1000 is a self-powered hand crank radio that allows you to stay informed even when all regular means of power are exhausted. Not only does this unit allow you to tune into AM, FM and weather band frequencies, but it also has a built in Voicelink for two way communication, ala walkie-talkie.

The FR1000 also features a flashlight, a beacon light that can function as an SOS signal, and a siren. All of which can be powered by a twist of a crank. Awesome.

Was it worth the $50 that they cost?
