Reviews

Nokia X6

Nokia has announced its next Comes with Music handset, and it looks to be the goods. Gone is the resistive touchscreens of its earlier models, plus it has a whopping 32GB of storage to keep your music on.
Nokia 5230

Nokia looks set to flood the market with its growing touchscreen line-up across all the major segments, with the 5230 filling the budget model gap.
Panasonic SDR-H80

The Panasonic SDR-H80 has the zoom power of a telescope and offers plenty of storage in a compact body, but the video results aren't nearly as thrilling.
Sony Handycam DCR-SR47

If high storage capacity, long zoom range and easy operation are above video quality on your list of needs, the Sony Handycam DCR-SR47 is well worth a look.
SanDisk ImageMate All-In-One USB 2.0 Reader/Writer

The SanDisk ImageMate reader is a stylish addition to any photographer's arsenal, and with a wide range of support for most card types, it's good value too.
The Beatles: Rock Band

After a string of disappointing Guitar Hero franchises, Harmonix looks to reinvent the "band-based" rhythm game genre with The Beatles: Rock Band.
Sony Ericsson W302 Walkman

The Sony Ericsson W302 Walkman delivers good sound quality in a neat design for a low price. For those who want a decent, inexpensive phone that plays music, it's a good choice, but don't bother with the poor camera and web browser.
Apple iPod Shuffle (3rd generation)

The Apple iPod Shuffle (3rd generation) is not bad as a budget player, but it has too many limitations for us to recommend it.
