Gerber Legend 800 multi-tool long-term review
Price paid around £65 from ebay.co.uk
Every geek really should own a multi-tool, just like every extreme sports freak should. A multi-tool is just as useful repairing computers in the server room or fighting your way into blisterpack products as it is repairing a Landrover in the Sahara or fighting off a giant squid. The multi-tool of choice for most has been the Leatherman Wave, but I decided to get the Gerber Legend 800 instead.

Citizen Cyber Aqualand NX dive computer review
Price paid: £499 from Ernest Jones

Sony MDR-EX85LP studio monitor in-ear ‘phones
Price £34.99 with free delivery from play.com
iPod headphones are crap – lets face it. Everyone says they are, and I found out for myself when I bought an iPod Touch recently. They sound mushy in the midrange and lack clarity in the treble, they hurt if you wear them for too long (especially when excercising) and they look pretty cheap as well. They need to be replaced with something to do your iPod justice....
