Picture perfect: Sony smile recognition camera, £185
DESKTOP VACUUM
စားပဲြတင္ ဖုန္စုတ္ၾကြက္ အဲ စားၾကြင္း ဘီစကြတ္မ်ား သန္ ့ရွင္းေပးေသာသတၱ၀ါ
(Ella's verdict: A battery-powered novelty item - which is almost 4in tall - with a serious purpose. In workaholic Britain we spend more time at our desks than our European neighbours. If the office has become our second home, is it any wonder we're getting a little desk-proud? £9.99 )
CASSETTE MEMORY STICK
မယ္မုိရီ အာလံျပဲ.. ပံုမွန္ memory-stickမွ သီခ်င္းမ်ား ကက္ဆက္ကဲ့သို ့ ျပန္ဖြင့္နားေထာင္နုိင္ပါေသာ သတၱ၀ါ။

(Ella's verdict: It may not be high-tech but, like all the best gadgets, the mirror provides a solution to a problem that's been bugging us for ever. It's hard to believe no one thought of it sooner. £18 )
Seeing double: 360 degree mirror, £18
FIAT 500 WITH BLUETOOTH
ကားနဲ ့ ဖံုး... သိပ္လက္မခံနုိင္ပါ။ ကားေမာင္းရင္း ဖံုးေျပာမႈ ့ေၾကာင့္ လူေပါင္းေျမာက္ျမားစြာ ေသဆံုးေနရဆဲ
(Ella's verdict:Volkswagen brought back the Beetle, BMW revived the good old Mini, but the new Fiat 500 is affordable, it looks great and it offers the kind of top-spec features you'd expect to find in top-of-the-range cars. If you have a mobile with Bluetooth capability (which lets your phone transmit data wirelessly on a radio frequency), a chip built into the dashboard of the Fiat allows you to operate your phone using voice recognition or the radio controls on your steering wheel - so hands-free is built in. From £8,100 )
Hands-free: Fiat 500, from £8,100

(Ella's verdict: As this gadget proves, there's no end to the ways technology can personalise our worlds these days. It's very simple. There is a tiny speaker deeply embedded in the pillow which connects to the headphone jack of your radio or iPod or MP3 player via the audio cable that comes with it. £20 )
RETRO IPOD ALARM
အျမင္အကပ္ဆံုးသတၱ၀ါ
(Ella's verdict: Your iPod already has a built-in alarm clock function. All you need to do is connect it to this speaker dock, shaped like an old-fashioned alarm clock - and it'll wake you with whatever tune gets you out of bed. It's a clever way to fuse new technology with the rather comforting idea of an alarm clock. £39.95)
Rise and shine: iPod alarm, £39.95WIZARD PEN

It's a pen pen, that writes and everything. But it records every movement you make, then you plug it into a computer and suddenly there's all your writing on screen (with nice circles and hearts above the 'i's!) Or if you're boring, you can take notes in lectures, then put them in your computer.
Ella's verdict: The Z Pen makes it possible to save and then send handwritten missives as digital documents. Just clip the receiver to the top of the page and it will store every pen stroke in its memory. When you plug the receiver straight into your PC, the preloaded software will convert your handwriting into (handwritten) text. £99.99
DIGITAL VIDEO CAMERA
This is the best video camera EVER. It's tiny, and pink, and you just turn it on, point it at whatever you want, press one big button that you can't miss ... and that's it. Now pull out a little thing from the side, plug it into your PC and your film's on YouTube in seconds, practically!!!
Ella's verdict: The Flip is the ultimate in user-friendliness, plugging straight into your computer's USB port and uploading with no fuss. It has a 2GB memory and a capacity to store up to an hour of video footage, as well as stills. £99.95)
Suppose you want to record a video for your internet diary, or talk to your friends, or boyfriend, online, yeah? Well you've probably got a camera in your PC, but it makes you look yucky!

Memories: Photoframe keyring, £44.95
TOUCH SCREEN MOBILE
ဒါက သိျပီးတာ အေကာင္ဗ်။ မမိုက္တာက ဒီအေကာင္ကို ေထာက္ဖို ့ ျပသနာဘဲ။ ဘာဘဲ ျဖစ္ျဖစ္ခလုပ္နဲ ့နိွပ္ရတာ ဘဲ ေကာင္းပါတယ္ဗ်ာ
Ella's verdict: The iPhone and the high-tech touch phones that came in its wake were aimed squarely at the male market. But as the limited edition, Needle Phone goes on sale, it's clear it is not just geeks and businessmen who want a phone that can do it all.
E-mails, weather reports, music, video, it's all available at the touch of a button. Its stylus function makes it possible to handwrite your texts. Free with Orange.
Touch screen: Ted Baker mobile, free with Orange
