Reviews

  • Norton Internet Security 2008

    While Symantec's protection is solid, the overall user experience within Norton Internet Security 2008 could be much, much better. Not all the features work together and use fewer system resources.

  • Netgear RangeMax Next Wireless ADSL2+ Modem Router DG834N

    The Netgear DG834N is a flexible and consistently performing draft-N modem with some excellent security features -- but you may baulk at the price.

    Vodafone's enhanced notebook PC Card delivers what the mobile telco calls 'business class 3G broadband' — but until more of the 3G network is upgraded with HSDPA, most users will remain stuck in economy seats.

  • Telstra hiptop 2

    With consumer-friendly mobile email, instant messaging, SMS and even Web browsing, and a deal that gives you almost unlimited data for $1 per day, Telstra's hiptop 2 looks set to become BlackBerry for teens and twentysomethings -- it could even topple an iPod as the hottest thing under the Christmas tree this year.

  • AlphaShield Firewall

    The AlphaShield's fixed firewall features are fine for newbies, but users who want protection for an always-on Internet connection will want the firewall flexibility found in most full-fledged routers.

  • Netgear WGU624

    The WGU624 offers a well-rounded amalgam of fast throughput, long range, and tight data security.
