Measuring 5 inches long by 3.7 inches wide by 1.7 inches tall, the Cell2Tel looks a bit like a boring black answering machine. On the front are two LED indicators; the one on the left glows green to indicate that the power is on and the phone is connected, and the right one glows red when it isn't connected. Underneath that are two buttons, one for Cell Phone 1, and the other for Cell Phone 2. Next to both buttons are amber indicator lights, to show which cell phone is connected. On the back of the Cell2Tel are the connections for power, the USB port for firmware updates, a telephone line-in jack, and then the phone jack that leads to the desk telephone.'

A review of the Krups Citrus Expert ZX 7000 juicer has been posted over at Pocket-lint.com. 'First up, the ZX7000 is a citrus press not a full-on juicer, so it won't squish your apples, carrots and wheatgrass into a worthy mush.

Smaller areas for connectors, fasteners, fuses and the like are another desirable feature, as is a solid finish and lightweight construction - tools are heavy enough on their own without adding a hefty box to your load! Price was our final consideration.'

Once you jump over the edge, cutting feels pretty effortless if the package has straight sides. You basically just guide the cutter along the edge. You don't really don't need to press it forward as it almost feels self-propelled.'
