Launched for Christmas 2007, Mi-Vox is an entire audio book in the palm of your hand.

With no cassettes, CDs or downloads, just pure pre-loaded audio, the books are being pitched as a simple and portable solution to listen to a book on the go.

Packed complete with ear phones and batteries, the device will bookmark where you stop listening, so you can just pick up in the right place on your next journey.

The Mi-Vox selection for men contains everything from non-fiction like the Jeremy Clarkson and Ricky Gervais biographies to "The Increment" by Chris Ryan.

There's also offerings for kids, including classics, and comedy "favourites" as well as newer novels.

Prices are from £8.99, available online now.
