Standing at only 9cm tall in his little cold tootsies he really is a little charmer. To bring him to life and really make him glow you just need to introduce him to any spare USB port you might have. If you push his buttons he’ll start to show

We’ve all done it I’m sure – deleted something off our phone by accident, orperhaps you really wanted to see what what a friend, colleague or partner deleted off their phone…
Well if you do then the LM SIM Recovery Tool will do just that. The SIM Recover Pro allows you to pull out phone numbers or text messages that have been deleted! So even if you thought it was gone you can still gte it back.
Great for those genuine accidents where you’ve managed to lose that important text or number, or when you have a sneaky suspicion you’re not getting told something by someone important in your life.
The SIM Recovery Pro is easy to use; you just insert the SIM card and connect the reader to your PC via the USB Connector. The software provided (you need to install this on your PC) them allows you to download and recover deleted texts and phone numbers.
If the SIM has been locked you will need to know the password before you can access the data. For more details check the link below:

Our incredibly handy and easy to use USB to IDE and SATA adapter continues to get a great response from customers. Of course if your PC has just crashed and you need to recover data from the Hard Disk Drive in the PC its understandable that you’re going to be thankful of a solution, particularly one that is relatively inexpensive and supports all types and sizes of hard disk drive.
Here’s some actual customer comments on the USB to IDE and SATA cable Kit (Product number: 52 and model VE328)
- “excellent excellent excellent he best thing i have bought”
- “Fantastic product, laptop video card errors rendered it unusable and needed urgent access to data on the SATA hard drive. Easy to use and highly recommended.
”
- “Works well on 2 of my old drives, 2 which are *really* old dont respond, but very pleased overall. Allowed my laptop to clean a multiple virus infection on a friends drive!”
- “Took the HD out of the failed Maxtor External Drive box, Hooked it up and ‘Hey Presto’ recovered all my early Digital Family Photo’s etc. I thought I’d lost. Much cheaper than a data recovery service and not too difficult to use if your machine is out of waranty and you don’t mind taking things apart. I didn’t get all my files back due to some corruption (which is almost inevitable with a drive failure) but by far the majority. Wish I’d bought it a year ago.”
If you do need to recover data from a hard disk drive then this adapter kit is what you need.

Whether you have an old internal IDE hard drive or you’ve just recently purchased a new SATA hard drive. If your anything like me then you’ll have two or maybe even three hard drives laying around… They seem to accumilate pretty quickly when having to upgrade for a bigger size or faster unit. The other problem is many motherboards will only support up to two hard drives. Let’s say for instance your internal hard drive was USB powered, there’d be no limit to have many you can have! And with our special offers on USB Hubs, you can connnect as many as your USB ports allow!
We have two great options for making use of them!
- Hard Drive Enclosures
Hard Drive Enclosures (also known as Hard Drive Caddy’s) are rigid cases that Hard Disk Drives “sit” inside. They are designed to support standard Hard Disk Drives of all types and sizes and once installed inside the enclosure, the enclosure can be connected to the computer via USB, Firewire or e-SATA.We have a large range of Hard Drive Enclosures…
