Garmin Nuvi 5000

It might be perfect for truck drivers, but the 5.2-inch Garmin 5000 is a bit too big for us car-bound road denizens. And the lack of Bluetooth hands-free, lane guidance and junction view condemns it to also-ran status.

Reviews

  • Kogan Blu-ray Player BD 2.0

    The renewed Kogan Blu-ray player is a bargain, with many of the niceties of much more expensive players but you can't expect video precision for the price.

  • HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One C309g

    The Photosmart Premium is a nifty little multifunction with the added novelty of a touchscreen. It does a great job of plain text, but it's a pity about its colour prints.

  • FIFA 10

    FIFA 10 offers the best gameplay in the series' history and includes even more features and game modes to boot.

  • Microsoft Security Essentials

    Microsoft Security Essentials is recommended for those who want something to set and ignore, but users who want more robust configuration choices or don't want to contribute to the cloud should look elsewhere.

  • Norton AntiVirus 2010

    Norton AntiVirus 2010 builds on the immense progress made in last year's version, maintaining a low system profile while strengthening its security framework. It's not perfect, but even Symantec's detractors should check it out.

  • Norton Internet Security 2010

    Norton Internet Security 2010 builds on the immense progress it made in last year's version, maintaining a low system profile while strengthening its security framework. It's not perfect, but even Symantec's detractors should check it out.

  • Nikon D300s

    The D300s is a fast, reliable workhorse for the semi-professional or amateur photographer, and it feels great to use and makes picture taking a real pleasure. But if you don't need HD video, you might want to try the plain old D300 instead.

  • Oppo BDP-83 Blu-ray Player

    With a mind-blowing feature set and superlative performance, the Oppo BDP-83 Blu-ray player could very well be the last disc spinner you'll ever need.
