In the market for a new notebook? Check out our list of 25 things you need to consider before you hit the shops.

Apple iPhone 3GS (32GB)

The iPhone 3GS is faster and we appreciate the new features and extended battery life, but call quality and 3G reception still need improvement.
Samsung UA40B7100

The Samsung UA40B7100 is the most "entertaining" television yet, and further evidence that the way forward for LCD televisions is in LED-backlighting.
Motorola MOTOSURF A3100

The MOTOSURF A3100 is a valiant attempt at a Windows Mobile handset, but its various problems affect important aspects of the phone and spoil the overall experience of using it.
Samsung UltraTouch (S8300)

Its camera is great and the screen looks amazing, but the UltraTouch is not a knockout. It's a weird mix of business looks, average apps and dodgy performance, and we just can't tell who exactly Samsung is trying to sell it to.
Sony XEL-1

Sure, the Sony XEL-1 OLED is ludicrously expensive, but it is also hands-down the most impressive television we have ever seen. Read our Australian-first review.
Dell S2409W

The Dell S2409W is a 24-incher that sacrifices features for price, but makes up for it in performance and ease of use.
Samsung SyncMaster 2333SW 23-inch LCD Monitor

Samsung's attractive "cream" monitor has a lot of upside, once you get the annoying base unit snapped on.
Sony Handycam HDR-XR200V

It's the active image stabilisation system that finally makes shooting lengthy handheld movies or on-the-go videos a viable option, which elevates this camera from average to good.

Samsung has seemingly come out of nowhere with its new "LED TV" range. Yet, despite the name, the technology is more familiar than you'd think.
