Reviews

  • Skype 4.1 beta

    Skype's new screen-sharing feature is a clever addition to the VoIP communications application. The new beta also sees birthday reminders reinstated, a favourite feature of past builds.

  • Chrome (beta)

    Google has rethought the Internet browser — some of its basic underpinnings are quite novel — but users will recognise some features as they exist in other, open-source browsers on the market today.

  • Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium beta

    Digital designers who don't need support for print or film work will find enhanced integration throughout the updates to Flash, Fireworks, Dreamweaver, Photoshop, Illustrator and more.

  • Adobe Dreamweaver CS3

    Dreamweaver CS3's universal binary alone could make the upgrade worthwhile for some users, and improved CSS plus new Spry features will be welcome to pros, but that's not a lot of advances for the steep price.

  • Adobe Fireworks CS3 beta

    Adobe's page prototyping tool plays better with Photoshop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver, and Flash.

  • Norton Internet Security 2007

    Norton Internet Security 2007 makes significant gains over last year, including cutting-edge rootkit and behavioural monitoring features found nowhere else, but the overall package could be serious overkill for the average desktop owner.

  • Sony Ericsson W950i

    Convergence? Yeah, Sony Ericsson's heard of it... This is an excellent MP3 phone let down by a clunky PDA interface and no camera.

  • FeedDemon 2

    FeedDemon is a terrific RSS reader that can handle hundreds of subscriptions faster and better than the many free Web-based readers available.
