Gadgets; Jon Perks picks his favourites from last week's Gadget Show Live.(Features)

Byline: Jon Perks

It's the ideal showcase for this season's latest must-have gizmos and gadgets, but Gadget Show Live was, as ever, a smorgasbord of the good, bad and ugly of all that go under the umbrella that is gadget.

Moshi Moshi's handsets looked the part, but how many people will shell out pounds 40 for a retro phone handset to plug into their mobile phone to try and alleviate the radiation waves (allegedly) frying their brain? There was a sea of stalls selling every cover, pouch and bag imaginable for your iPad, iPod, iPhone, BlackBerry; chargers and adaptors of every shape and size - and a glut of new accessories for the iPad2.

My favourites, however, were the quirky but useful gadgets - none more so than the Nike+ SportWatch GPS.

The ultimate runner's watch, this collaboration with TomTom (pounds 179, tomtom.com) has a tap screen for setting laps, heart rate monitor compatability and, of course, built in GPS to log where you've run.

Plug the watch into a USB port and you can store all the data and even see fellow runners' routes nearby.

Genius - as is Papershow, a clever new invention to give your presentations a touch of class.

The USB key plugs into your PC/Mac and then, using the special pen and paper, you can draw and write directly onto the screen or, using one of the special pages, your powerpoint pages.

It works via a camera and Bluetooth and retails around pounds 120. www.

papershow.com I also loved the range of internet radios from Scottish-based Revo (www.revo.co.uk); the odd-looking toed running shoes from Fivefingers (primallifestyle.com); mouldable silicon rubber Sugru (www.sugru.com) and, finally, Brasso (www.brasso.co.uk) No, not the stuff your auntie used to clean her knick-knacks, but Brasso Gadgetcare, a new alcohol-based solution to clean the screen on your smartphone or iPad which, let's face it, soon gets covered in fingermarks.

Your gadgets will thank you for it.

Correction: In last week's earphones reviews we incorrectly marked the Sennheiser phones - they were in fact the PMX680.

Knuckles have been rapped.
