Researchers have found that our British counterparts pay almost double for gadgets. Paul Trotter of PC Pro magazine found that a basket of gadgets and software that cost £3,500 from the UK, was £1,000 less when bought directly from US. Items such as digital cameras can cost almost as much as 40% more.
Manufacturers claim that the price difference is due to a desire to “localise” software and/or protect consumers from potential currency drops.

Speck has another case available for the Treo 650.
The ToughSkin for Treo 650 provides rugged protection and good looks. Its one-of-a-kind design customizes the popular rubberized skin for extreme lifestyles on the job or at home. It's the only skin to feature ruggedized bumpers, screen protection, optional keypad protection, and a deluxe swivel holster. If you're tough on your stuff, the ToughSkin is right for you!
Not sure how the covering of the five way navigator affects operating the Treo, but it definitely looks like an option for someone looking for extra protection without extra bulk and weight that many other cases add. You can purchase it for $34.95 in black and clear.

MobileTechReview has reviewed the Southwing SH 305, one of the smallest Bluetooth headsets on the market. I found this review especially interesting since we're in the process of testing several different Bluetooth headsets (the Jabra BT110, the Jabra BT250, and the Palm Treo headset). But back to the Southwing SH 305....this headset features a Favorite Number button that can be programmed with your favorite number and can be dialed with just a push of the button. Visit MobileTechReview to read the remainder of the favorable review of the Southwing SH 305.
