Reviews

Canon Pixma MP560

As a mid-priced multifunction the MP560 performs well, and we appreciate the inclusion of realistic claimed print speeds.
Jak and Daxter: The Lost Frontier

Solid gameplay, challenging platform puzzles and a touch of whacky humour make Jak and Daxter: The Lost Frontier a good addition to Sony's much-loved series.
Canon Legria HF20

As far as mid-range camcorders go, there's not much to fault the Canon Legria HF20 for; the image quality is good, the autofocus speedy and feature list fairly full.
Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 G

The Sony 70-200mm lens is an excellent telephoto zoom choice for Alpha cameras, providing you've got deep pockets and strong, strong arms.
Sony PlayTV (PS3)

The Sony PlayTV is an add-on for the PlayStation 3 that allows you to use your console as a fully-fledged, dual-tuner video recorder.
DJ Hero

DJ Hero spells a new frontier in rhythm gaming of electrifying fun, but the cover charge is steep.
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX1

Sony's DSC-TX1 is an exciting step forward for compact cameras, pushing for better image quality rather than more megapixels — and it pulls it off in style.
Sony Dream Machine (ICF-CL75iP)

We have a few nitpicks and grumblings, but overall the Dream Machine is a happy marriage between the alarm clock, iPod dock and digital photo frame.
