Tech you loved in 2004

Here are some of the products our readers were passionate about in 2004, and the reasons they thought they were great.

Sony Ericsson W705

Reviews

  • Sony PSP-3000

    With its impressive game library, lower price and expanded feature set, it's certainly a much better deal than the original PSP — and it's even better than the PSP 2000. While its media and online functions won't necessarily replace a dedicated AV device or laptop, it will be good for most portable gaming and multimedia needs.

  • Sony STRDA5300ES

    With six HDMI inputs, an intuitive graphical user interface and excellent audio and video quality, the Sony STR-DA5300ES raises the bar on what to expect from a high-end AV receiver.

  • Toshiba gigabeat X30 (30GB)

    Slightly smaller and thinner than the original, the new Toshiba gigabeat X30 gives the overall effect being of a much sleeker unit than its predecessor.

  • Sony NW-A3000S Walkman (20GB)

    Sony won us over with its latest MP3 entry, the 6GB NW-A1000 Walkman, and with the exact same design and features set, the 20GB NW-A3000S Walkman looks set to do the same.

  • Archos Gmini 400

    Vastly portable and filled to the brim with features, the Archos Gmini 400's essential missing ingredient is its lack of MTP and Janus support.
