By far the quirkiest – and possibly coolest – MP3 player I’ve seen in a long time – the Chinavision cassette-shaped MP3 player.

As well as the retro design (which also features an image of a record deck on the exterior), the player allows storage of MP3 tracks on an SD or MMC card (up to 2GB), with buttons on the front for accessing your tracks and changing volume, an earphone socket and a rechargeable battery.

This is a new product, with no price as yet – but it’s unlikely to sell for more than £20.

A 70s stereo off eBay? Actually no – this is a very modern home theatre system from Japanese firm Amadana – the DDA134.

We love the walnut wood and chrome finish that gives it that 70s look, but more practical buyers might appreciate the progressive scan DVD player, state-of-the-art amplifier and selection of surround sound technology (including Dolby Virtual Speaker technology), not to mention an old-style remote control.

On the downside, this only seems to be available in Japan and it’s also got a fairly high price tag – the equivalent of £775.
