GPS buyer's guide

Prices for GPS devices and apps have come down in the last year and many of us are looking at jumping on the bandwagon. We take a look at how it works, why you should (or shouldn't) buy a GPS, as well as key features to look out for.

Sony Ericsson W508

The W508 is a great phone for listening to music and playing games, but it's yet another Walkman phone from Sony Ericsson that doesn’t really standout from the pack.

Reviews

  • Sony Ericsson F305

    It's cute as a button and packed to the gills with games to play. The F305 is a nice phone for its price, but there's nothing ground-breaking here to recommend.

  • Lexus RX400h (2006)

    For those craving a luxury four-wheel drive with an emphasis on luxury rather than cornering elan, then the RX400h is a good choice. It's about as much four-wheel drive as many of us will ever need, and its fuel thrift is pleasing too.

  • Linksys Media Center Extender DMA2200

    The MCE DMA2200 is probably the best media streaming device we've ever tested. It only works with Windows Vista, but for streaming media from a PC to the TV, it's ideal.

  • Sony Ericsson K810i

    The Sony Ericsson K810i is a good camera phone, but it lacks the wow factor of its predecessors -- if you don't already own a K800i then it's worth checking out.

  • Beyonwiz DP-P1

    The Beyonwiz DP-P1 is a twin-HD tuner digital video recorder with network capabilities allowing you to stream content such as photos and DivX movies from your PC.

  • Samsung Digimax i6

    The Digimax i6 takes pictures and plays MP3 and videos. Just don't expect too much by way of performance and image quality.

  • Apple iPhone

    Despite some flaws, the Apple iPhone sets a new benchmark for an integrated phone and MP3 player.

  • Road Angel Navigator 3000

    The Road Angel Navigator 3000 enters the entry-level GPS fray and provides formidable competition. We wish it came with an AC charger and better instructions, though.

  • Format wars: the tech that should have won

    Did you love Laserdisc? Were you bonkers over Betamax? Do you cry yourself to sleep because BeOS never hit the big time? Fret no more -- superdork Captain Tech is here to travel back in time and save the format losers that should have triumphed.

  • Samsung YP-Z5 vs. Apple iPod Nano

    A collection of judges from CNET.com and MP3.com put the Samsung YP-Z5 and the Apple iPod Nano through their paces, pitting the players head-to-head in five rounds.

  • Dual-core desktop CPU bout: AMD vs. Intel

    AMD and Intel both have dual-core CPUs out on the market, but which chip maker's technology is truly the best?

  • Top 10 mobile phones of August

    Sony Ericsson's is-it-a-camera-or-a-phone K750i takes out the number one spot again with Nokia's premium 8800 rocketing up behind it to come in at number three.
