Reviews

  • Optus USB Slimline Modem

    The Optus USB modem works as advertised, but fluctuations in service and a few software bugs have hampered our experience during testing.

  • Vodafone Internet Stick

    For those blessed with excellent 3G reception in their homes the Vodafone Internet Stick will serve you well. Be sure to check Vodafone's coverage map before coughing up the cash.

    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.

    McAfee Internet Security 2008 trounces Norton Internet Security 2008, offering a better designed product with more security tools.

  • Nokia N800

    While not a phone, Nokia's N-Series N800 makes Skype and Google Talk calls over a Wi-Fi connection. Sporting a 4-inch touchscreen display the N800 plays back a wide range of multimedia formats and allows you to surf the Web using a built-in Opera browser, and keep connected with instant messaging buddies.
