Reviews

  • Dell Latitude XT2 Tablet

    Dell's tablet isn't cheap, but it'll appeal to the business crowd who desire a solidly built system.

  • Lenovo IdeaPad S10-2

    Lenovo's popular IdeaPad S10-2 netbook has been slimmed down and its price reduced, making it a better netbook — as long as you can live without ExpressCard.

  • Virgin Mobile Broadband WiFi modem

    It lacks some basic features you may require — touch pad, optical drive — but the 12.1-inch ThinkPad X200 offers strong performance and the longest battery life we've seen.

  • Asus Lamborghini VX5

    Asus' Lamborghini VX5 is a luxury laptop, with a luxury price to match — thankfully justified by the quality of the laptop and package. If you've got a wad of cash burning in your pocket, and don't mind a little luxury, the VX5 might be for you.

  • Samsung N110

    An easy-to-use netbook with a long battery life, but there are cheaper options.
