HP Mini 210

HP's Mini 210 combines style and battery life in a combination that makes it genuinely compelling.
Grundig DAB+ Micro System

For audiophiles on a budget, Grundig has released its first DAB+ Micro System, which the company is claiming is also one of the first speakers in Australia to combine digital radio in a Micro system.
Sennheiser PX 100-II

The Sennheiser PX 100-II is a very good, stylish set of headphones that will nevertheless live in the shadow of the excellent original.
Dell Inspiron Mini 10 (Intel Atom N450)

Dell's basic netbook adds better battery life and the newest Intel Atom CPU, and robust configuration options add a level of flexibility many other netbooks lack.
Sony Walkman B Series (NWZ-B143F)

It has none of the elegance of the iPod Shuffle, but it's cheaper and has a built-in screen, FM radio and recording capabilities. Minor concerns aside, the NWZ-B142F is a good performer with an attractive price tag.
Creative Zen MX

Creative's latest player may have some drawbacks, but it still is a strong contender that provides great value for money.

Desktop users who need a portable drive will find the My Passport Elite endearing, although the dock could stand to be a little more user friendly.
Sangean DPR-69 Plus

Sangean's cute DRP-69 Plus isn't quite portable or desk bound, and isn't quite sharp enough to make it a must-have DAB.
