Reviews

  • Toshiba Satellite P100

    Toshiba's Satellite P100-PSPAGA offers excellent components, features, and performance, but you can find similar systems for less.

  • Samsung BD-P1000

    Samsung's BD-P1000 is the first Blu-ray player to land in Australia. While it raises the bar for high-definition video with 1080p output, it also carries a lofty price tag.

  • Acer Aspire 5675WLHi

    The 5675WLHi is a poor man's way to HD DVD early adoption, but it clearly lacks the polish of its competitors.

  • Toshiba Qosmio G30

    Although the benefit of HD DVD is questionable, the Toshiba Qosmio G30 is still the most feature-rich home entertainment notebook we've seen to date.

  • Apple Mac Mini Core Duo

    Apple packs more media-specific features into the Mac Mini to make an inexpensive and useful entertainment-room computer. It's tremendously easy to use, although it surprised us with poor image processing.

  • Acer TravelMate 8200

    From a performance perspective, the fast Acer TravelMate 8200 does Intel's new Core Duo processor proud -- but its mediocre battery is hardly the five hours Intel promised.

  • Sony Handycam DCR-PC1000

    A compact three-chip MiniDV camera that combines advanced features with point-and-shoot design.

  • Sony Ericsson P910i

    Those looking for a capable device to complement their busy routine can consider this improved smart phone from Sony Ericsson.
