Apple iPhone 3GS shortcuts

We know you love the iPhone, but do you know all the shortcuts implemented by Apple to make using the iPhone easier?

The Asus MS236H is an attractive monitor with a few shortcomings; the buttons are frustrating, and the lack of adjustability may annoy some. It does, however, represent excellent power savings, looks great and delivers acceptable performance.

Reviews

HP Mini 210

HP's Mini 210 combines style and battery life in a combination that makes it genuinely compelling.
Samsung R580

The R580 combines attractive design and performance grunt, but you can't take this desktop replacement too far away from a power source for long.
iXpand 3G

Despite its stylish iPhone-like design, the iXpand 3G is best avoided due to its sub-par battery performance.
MSI Wind U135

MSI's latest netbook impresses us with a quality keyboard.
Asus VH232H

The VH232H is great on build quality, but stumbles on image quality. Colour accuracy isn't its strong point, sharpness is set too high and movie watching over HDMI isn't the best; but if you just want to do some basic gaming, it might fit your bill.
Garmin-Asus nuvifone A50

The nuvifone's Linux heritage can be seen in the M50, an Android nuvifone that certainly doesn't skimp in the navigation department.
HP Mini 311

HP's Mini 311 adds a larger, high-definition display and advanced graphics to a basic netbook, while keeping the price very appealing.
Asus EeeBox PC EB1501

We've yet to be truly bowled over by any nettop PC, and while this one is not the be all and end all of systems, if you yearn for a full keyboard and external monitor presence, it's a fair option.
