iPod Shuffle system helps alleviate the annoyance of arranging a new track selection every day, I don’t really believe that anyone’s music collection is so good that each random track selection will contain more than five decent songs. Fortunately for the lazier listener, recent technological advances might soon see Apple’s flash players leap forward in capacity up to a rumoured 2GB and 4GB, which means it might select anything up to, say, 10 decent tracks!

Telewest's Teleport TV
Telewest has been a bit slower rolling out Video on Demand (VOD) services than its rival NTL. But now it seems the Woking-based company is fighting back with the launch of a new on demand service called Teleport (wonder where they got that name from then?)
Telewest viewers can access the Teleport service via their existing set-top box and remote control. Teleport Movies offers a library of 200 current and classic films from FilmFlex for between £2 and £3.50 per night. Other services include Teleport Replay (a second chance to catch programmes like EastEnders and Casualty) and Teleport Life (specialist interest programmes).
