These HOT, HOT SBA1500 speakers from Phillips are unlike any other sound blasters around. Though just the size of a cricket ball, one single speaker has the meat to blast off the jazz in style! The speakers come with their own power pack to amplify the music, which clips together pretty neatly with the speakers for true compact portability. And best bit: These portable balls of power are made to actually live off the power from your music device. So just plug them in and set the ball rolling!

If touch is the big thing right now in gadgets, this touchscreen is the next big thing! Unlike in iPhone, Google’s G 1 or any other touchscreen phone, the BlackBerry Storm has Click Through, which has a suspension system beneath the display, so that when you go to select an application, you actually push the screen down like you would with any key. It sounds pretty realistic… But what keeps it in our virtual wishlist segment is that no one except Texas-based Research In Motion knows of its scheduled launch date (in India arid globally) or its pricing! Well, we guess we just have to wish and watch…!

SPEC CHECK!

• 3.25 display
• Auto switch between CDMA and GSM networks
