Memory cards: Make your phone more like an iPhone

Our need for storage is increasing, particularly because we want all of our music, videos and photos to travel with us on our phones, but manufacturers typically cut costs by skimping on internal memory. Luckily, the saving grace is expandable memory cards.

Sony SLR sensor ranks below Nikon, above Canon

Three mid-range Sony SLRs now are included in DxO Labs' measurements of image sensor performance, and the Alpha A700 proves to be reasonably competitive.

Reviews

  • Corsair Flash Voyager 64GB

    With more than enough space, some will be using Corsair's 64GB as a replacement for an external hard drive. Transferring this much data though will leave you wishing for more speed.

  • Corsair Flash Voyager (16GB)

    Corsair's ruggedised stick just got bigger.

  • Xbox 360 Hard Drive (120 GB)

    It's a 120GB hard drive, it comes with software and a cable to sync data between two drives, and it stores multimedia content. Its cost however is slightly prohibitive, making it a little hard to swallow even for hardcore gamers.

  • Mordaunt-Short Performance 6

    Lovingly designed from the ground up, the Performance 6 speakers provide rich, vibrant sound to please the discerning -- and cashed-up -- audiophile.

  • Xbox 360 Memory Unit (64MB)

    This Xbox 360 Memory Unit (64MB) allows you to save your game scores and gamer profiles.

  • Sony Ericsson W900i

    Only days after announcing its P990i smart phone, Sony Ericsson has unveiled a 3G Walkman handset that music lovers might be putting at the top of their wish lists this Christmas.

  • SanDisk Cruzer Profile (512MB)

    SanDisk's fingerprint-reading Cruzer Profile memory key can make data safe and secure, but it's big, heavy, and awkward to use.

  • Sony Memory Stick Entertainment Packs

    The first purchase you'll need to make after your PSP and games is a bigger Memory Stick (because you'll soon find that the 32MB included memory just isn't big enough). Sony's releasing the Memory Stick Entertainment Pack to coincide with the PSP launch -- each pack contains a Memory Stick, plus the Image Converter 2 management software (which is what you'll need to transfer your own movies into a PSP-friendly format). The packs come in three sizes -- 512MB, 1GB and 2GB.
