HTC Snap

The Snap will appeal to a specific segment of business-minded road warriors who need good messaging but don't want to pay for extras like media or social networking.

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.

Reviews

  • Sony Handycam HDR-SR12

    A little cheaper and a bit more capacious than its predecessor, Sony's top-dog consumer camcorder is the one to get should you have the desire to go high-def.

  • Asus EeePC 900

    The Asus EeePC 900 is an excellent update to the EeePC 701, and a fantastic purchase.

  • System Mechanic 7 Professional

    System Mechanic 7 Professional goes beyond its original greatness, morphing a system utility suite into a kind of grand security suite. As such, it comes up short.

  • Norton 360

    For home and student use, we think Norton 360 represents the best value for ease of use, tools offered, and overall system performance.

  • Rojo RSS reader

    Rojo is a respectable newsreader, but it's not our favourite. We like its community-oriented features, but competitors such as Bloglines are easier to learn.

  • Google Desktop 4 beta

    Google Desktop 4 beta is less clunky than its predecessor and we love the zippy search and creative Sidebar Gadgets. Still, we're wary of handing over our computing habits to Google's servers.

  • Google Desktop 2

    Google's new desktop search app includes a sidebar to display your local files, as well as your e-mail inbox and Web journeys.

  • McAfee Internet Security Suite 2006

    McAfee Internet Security Suite 2006 packs a powerful protection arsenal -- but it's far too slow. Loyal McAfee users should upgrade for the automatic spyware and phishing blockers, but the rest of us should seek security elsewhere, such as ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite 6.
