Reviews

Archos 605

The Archos 605 Wi-Fi portable video player is one of the best mobile distractions money can buy.
Apple TV

A lack of playable formats and limited functionality really stunts the appeal of the otherwise elegant Apple TV. Read our Australian review.
Sony Handycam HDR-SR1

A very attractive high-end consumer camcorder, this is easy to use out-of-the-box, offering great features even if video quality could be better.
Creative Zen Vision:W

The bulky but easy-to-use Creative Zen Vision:W and its nice screen will dazzle video lovers who don't require video recording.
Toshiba gigabeat S30

Those turned off by previous gigabeat players' messy interface should take a look at this Portable Media Center model, which shows a huge improvement in the usability stakes.
Archos 404

The attractively priced Archos 404 is a PVP in an MP3 player's body. If you want a better screen and a removable battery, spend a bit more for the wider 604.
Novonde NV-15

The Novonde NV-15 PMP offers a lot of functionality above what you'd expect from a personal media player, but the implementation and results are less than spectacular.
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.

We know what you're thinking: Why mention the iPod in the same breath as digital audio players from Archos, and Creative when the iPod doesn't even play the WMA format?

The iPod is growing up

If Apple really is putting a version of Mac OS X in a new iPod, presumably it has more in mind than showing high-quality highlights of Australian Idol.
