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.

  • Panasonic SC-PT870

    The Panasonic SC-PT870 is a good system, offering decent-quality surround sound and very good picture performance.

  • TEAC iTB1000 iPod dock

    The TEAC iTB1000 sits at the top of the "party" dock food chain with no known predators, but other devices give better bang for buck.

  • Fujitsu M1010

    Fujitsu's netbook offering doesn't really differ much in performance, but redeems itself in design. We still wish it was a touch cheaper, though.

  • HP Mini 1000

    HP may have arrived late to the consumer netbook game, but by lifting the generous keyboard from last year's business-oriented model, the Mini 1000 easily joins the category's top tier.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended

    Adobe Acrobat 9 document-creation software is adding dynamic features such as integration of animation, dynamic maps, 256-bit encryption, and improved forms. We've been playing with the beta edition of Acrobat 9 Pro Extended.

  • MSI Turbobook GX600

    Good value for money, considering the fact it can so easily be overclocked, but it's far from perfect

  • Belkin TuneStudio

    The Belkin TuneStudio is an excellent four-track recorder which is best when used with a Mac or PC. It includes pro-level features such as a compressor and phantom power.

  • Nokia's adds digital TV, home connectivity to Nseries
