Lexus IS250 Sports Luxury (2009)

What the IS250 lacks in badge snobbery, it makes up for in good looks, rock-solid quality, neat handling and serenity enough to becalm a frazzled monk. While stuffed with tech, it isn't quite as up-to-date as we'd have liked.

Sony Handycam HDR-SR12

Reviews

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.
Toshiba Qosmio G40

Like its predecessor, the Qosmio G30, Toshiba's flagship multimedia desktop replacement offers a complete suite of entertainment features. The G40 is slightly slimmer and has a couple of tricks up its sleeve.
Dell XPS M1330

If you're in the market for a portable, the 1.78kg Dell XPS with its HDMI port and slot-loading DVD is both stylish and a pleasure to use.
JVC Everio GZ-MG275

The GZ-MG275 is a hard-disk based camcorder ideal for entry-level videographers, although its asking price might give some HD enthusiasts pause for thought.
Toshiba Satellite A200

The A200 is a good all-rounder notebook with plenty to offer those on a budget. Just don't expect a performance powerhouse at this price.
Panasonic SDR-H250

The H250 has a lot to offer today — notably a great lens, flexible storage and usable manual features — but it'll soon look as quaint and outmoded as VHS.
Panasonic DMR-ES15

Limited specification but affordable, easy-to-use and both the recording and playback performance is impressive.
Legend Digital LPVR160 Personal Video Recorder

Legend's LPVR160 PVR comes with twin digital tuners and 160GB of recording space, but at its heart it's very much an entry level unit.
