Reviews

  • Toyota Prius i-Tech (2009)

    the best tech goodies, such as the solar powered air-con, parking assistance, LED headlights and radar cruise control, on the new Prius are reserved for the i-Tech model.

  • Nikon D5000

    Judged on its own merits, the D5000 is a great digital SLR for those wanting something a bit better than the entry-level D60 model, and equals or betters a lot of the performance specifications of the D90.

  • Sony BDP-S5000ES

    The Sony BDP-S5000ES is a premium Blu-ray player, which features impressive build quality and audio performance, but if video is what you crave there are cheaper options.

  • Olympus E-620

    If you've been hankering after an Olympus E-30 but baulked at the price, don't despair ... just get the E-620 instead. It's a competent, capable digital SLR in the vein of its older sibling, but a lot smaller and cheaper.

  • Canon EOS 500D

    The 500D is a very capable camera that is ideal for someone entering the world of digital SLRs. The inclusion of high-definition video adds even more appeal to the already good-looking package.

  • Marantz DV4003

    If you're looking to play your existing collection of DVDs and don't want a Blu-ray player, then the Marantz DV4003 is an excellent choice.

  • Rotel RSX-1550

    The Rotel RSX-1550 receiver features an up-to-date specification, and though a little simplistic compared to rivals, it's a great movie machine.

  • HP iPAQ Voice Messenger

    The iPAQ Voice Messenger is at best, mediocre. There's nothing here that HTC, BlackBerry or Apple don't already do better, and unless your company already has a great HP contract, it's hard to recommend.
