Craig was sucked into the endless vortex of tech at an early age, only to be spat back out babbling things like "phase-locked-loop crystal oscillators!". Mostly this receives a pat on the head from the listener, followed closely by a question about what laptop they should buy.

Announced today, Asus is offering a free GPS extension kit in the form of a dongle.

Owners of a Prime can apply for their free kit here, and will need to sign up to an Asus account, register their product and supply their serial number to complete the transaction.

The program will operate until 31 July 2012, so if you're an affected customer you'll need to act quickly.
