FOLLOWING a successful launch in the UK last year with a range of home laundry, dishwashing and refrigeration products available exclusively through independent buying group CIH, Blomberg is now adding built-in appliances to its line-up.

PURE has added the Contour 100Di to its expanding family of Contour docks.

WATERPROOF, shockproof and dust-proof, says Philips of its ESee CAM150 camcorder, which it designed for the rough and tumble of a day out.

It plays 3D Blu-ray discs, DVDs, CDs, will dock an ‘i-device’ and even has an integrated music-recognition service powered by Gracenote (if an internet connection is available), so the user will never again wonder who wrote or performed a soundtrack.
