Reviews

Virgin Mobile Broadband WiFi modem

This WiFi modem/router works well and provides great value on some plans, but we're still left wanting better performance out of Virgin Mobile's actual broadband.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH1

The Lumix DMC-GH1 proves that there's fight and fury in the Micro Four Thirds format, with brilliant HD video quality and great still images.
Fujifilm FinePix S1500

The S1500 is a mini-superzoom with a 12x optical zoom lens, panorama mode and a 10 megapixel sensor.
Fujifilm FinePix J250

The J250 features a 28mm wide-angle 5x optical zoom lens with dual image stabilisation.
Fujifilm FinePix J20

The J20 is an entry-level compact digital camera from Fujifilm, with a 10 megapixel sensor and 3x optical zoom.
Nikon Coolpix S610

The S610 is a 10 megapixel compact with a 4x optical zoom.
Samsung NC10

The NC10 betters previous Samsung netbooks with a built-in HSDPA SIM card reader and the portability this provides. Optus wireless broadband bundles seem like excellent value.
Sony Alpha A850

Sony's A850 is a full frame sensor digital SLR which is set to go head-to-head with Canon's 5D Mark II and Nikon's D700. With 24.6 megapixels inside and in-body image stabilisation it's certainly not a shrinking violet, either.
