Rollers. Far more involving and good for your core strength. Or you fall off. Turbo was sooooo boring.
Re:
I maybe wrong, but I don't think you have any resistance with rollers, whereas with turbo trainers you do. Mine has a lever that you attach to the handlebars that allows you to adjust the resistance from nothing to having to stand to turn the pedals.
I recommend getting a proper turbo trainer tyre too, standard tyres get very hot and start to fall apart, you definitely don't want anything with tread on: http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/schw ... -prod83324
You might also want a fan to stand in front of you, if you're indoors you get really hot and sweat buckets.
