Reviews

BenQ Joybee GP1

The BenQ Joybee GP1 is a small and impressive LED pico-projector, but you'll pay handsomely for the "wow" factor.
HTC Touch Pro2

Those who can afford the Touch Pro2 will be buying a feature-rich smartphone with a unique conference calling feature and a decent suite of business apps.
Samsung BD-P1400

The Samsung BD-P1400 has a lot to offer for the price in HD audio-video performance and is highly recommended — especially if you don't care for interactive features.
Dell 3008WFP

With a crazy number of inputs, 1080p over component and good rendering of 1080i, this screen has set itself up as a potential TV replacement, let alone a huge monitor. This one's the new king.
Nokia N95

If you need an all-in-one communications, navigation and imaging device and don't mind charging it every night, Nokia's N95 raises the bar in the mobile world.
Toshiba Satellite P100

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

Samsung DVD-R135

The Samsung DVD-R135 is a relatively inexpensive and stylish DVD recorder with HDMI upscaling, but it's not quite as good as the competition.
