Reviews

Toshiba Regza 47ZV600A

The Toshiba Regza 47ZV600E is a capable LCD TV which delivers in the audio-visual department, all at a fairly inexpensive asking price.
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.
Samsung EX1

Touted as "the LX3 killer", Samsung's EX1 is set to go up against the Panasonic power compact.
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX5

Sony enters the waterproof camera fray with the TX5, a slim and stylish take on the rugged bricks we've seen elsewhere.
Asus Eee PC Seashell 1201N

As one of the few netbooks with a dual-core Atom processor and Nvidia Ion graphics, the 12.1-inch Eee PC 1201N has superior performance compared with most Atom-based machines, but any higher-level ULV thin-and-light will still do better.
Dell Inspiron Zino HD

While our review sample doesn't quite have the power to be a usable HTPC, if you're willing to spend a little more Dell offers the upgrades to get there.
Dell IN1910N

The Dell IN1910N is an economy monitor that sacrifices too much in terms of performance and features to achieve its low price tag. We recommend saving up for a better model.
Olympus E-P2

Sharing a host of similarities to the E-P1, the E-P2 just doesn't have that wow-factor anymore. But if you can forgive it for this, you will find that it's a great Micro Four Thirds camera.
