Reviews

Apple iPhone 3GS (32GB)

The iPhone 3GS is faster and we appreciate the new features and extended battery life, but call quality and 3G reception still need improvement.
Sony DAV-IS10

The Sony DAV-IS10 is a likeable system with incredibly tiny speakers but it stops quite short of a hearty recommendation.
Nokia 5700 XpressMusic

Although it's not brimming with features, Nokia's twisty 5700 is a decent enough music phone, but its poor quality headphones and other minor flaws let it down.
Archos 605

The Archos 605 Wi-Fi portable video player is one of the best mobile distractions money can buy.
Zensonic Z500

Zensonic's Z500 is one of the most advanced DVD players we've seen. It has built-in 802.11g wireless, Ethernet and USB connectivity to play almost any type of format you could throw at it.
Apple iTunes 6

Version 6 of Apple iTunes is the perfect complement to the video-friendly iPod.
Apple iPod Nano (2GB)

Thanks to its limited capacity, the gorgeous Apple iPod Nano isn't for everybody, but it sets the standard for MP3 players to come.
Sony NW-HD5

Sony's 20GB NW-HD5 and the iPod are both dead simple to use, but the HD5 is smaller, and its removable battery lasts much longer.
