Reviews

  • Motorola MOTOSURF A3100

    The MOTOSURF A3100 is a valiant attempt at a Windows Mobile handset, but its various problems affect important aspects of the phone and spoil the overall experience of using it.

  • LG Shine (TU720)

    LG makes some of our favourite prepaid handsets, and the TU720 is no exception. This new Shine matches good looks with great basic functionality and an excellent online experience.

  • Meridian Sooloos Music Server

    The Meridian Sooloos is a modular music server with an easy-to-use interface and one of the best Random modes we've seen. The downside? It's expensive.

  • Telstra T6

    The T6 is the phone we never expected to see from Telstra. The price tag on the T6 is spot on for a phone with this feature set, and the Telstra Blue Tick should offer those in remote areas some peace of mind.

  • Samsung C5220

    The C5220 is a passable prepaid from Telstra. Its low-specs are elevated somewhat by Next G compatibility, though there's little else to recommend it.

  • Telstra Turbo 21 modem

    Telstra's Turbo 21 delivered the fastest wireless broadband experience we've seen. This excellent performance will be enough to justify its high price for some.

  • Netgear Space-Saving Powerline Network Kit

    Netgear's Space-Saving Powerline Network Kit has some good ideas, some bad. On the performance front though, if you absolutely need homeplugs, we'd suggest spending more for the higher rated 200Mbps plugs.

  • Telstra T165i

    The Country Phone will feel at home in those remote areas that struggle with mobile coverage. It makes up for an absence of bells and whistles with great performance of its essential features.

  • Telstra's blue tick phones

    Check out our reviews of the Next G mobiles that Telstra recommends for use in rural areas.

  • Do you need a home network for school?

    With the government slowly rolling out laptops to school kids, many families will discover they have more than one computer in the home.

  • Top NAS Units

    Whether you need to keep data safe, or if you're just looking for an easy way to share files across a network, a Network Attached Storage (NAS) device is a good way to achieve both goals.
