Does anyone know where I could find an Annoy-a-Tron?
I read about it in a recent computer mag (PC Format I think), but can't find anywhere local to buy one.
I've found reviews of it:
http://uk.gizmodo.com/2006/11/29/the_annoyatron.html
http://www.redferret.net/?p=8059
but the only place that appears to sell it is in America:
http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/electronic/8c52/
The price is only $9.99 but the delivery charges are extortionate.
Also does anyone have one? What are they like? They 'sound' (no pun intended) like great fun...lol...

They sound pathetic to me... $9.99 for a beeper with no real purpose? I can see the game wearing thin very quickly indeed.
Why would you want to annoy your friends / colleagues / family? Will it endear you to them?

I don't know, and I don't care, but I DO wish a certain colleague had never bought one to annoy our team leader at work. Team leader: blissfully unaware of the annoy-a-tron. Everyone else: going slowly insane with the irritating beep.
The two sounds that I have heard are a high-pitched, difficult to locate noise and a beep that sounds like a PC encountering an error.
I can't understand why these are legal, but mobile-phone blockers aren't. I'd love to enable one on the bus home from work when 16-year slapper McChav starts gassing about her sex life for the whole bus to hear.

The Annoy-A-Tron is available excusively in the UK from pranksterhouse.com
If the Annoy-A-Tron appeals to your wicked sense of humour then wait till you check out the Eviltron and the Phantom Keystroker.
Best of all for all you Money Saving Experts they are all on special offer for a limited period!0
