Reviews

  • HP 2309m

    At a price of AU$649, the 2309m is a decent buy. While it performs well, the blacks aren't as deep as we'd like, and we'd be more tempted to find something with a matte screen to cut down on reflections.

  • Cowon O2 (32GB)

    The O2 is a solid player, offering impressive video and sound quality and support for a massive list of filetypes.

  • Windows 7 pre-beta (build 6801)

    At first glance, Windows 7 appears to be an advanced iteration of Windows Vista, but more consumer-friendly, with many user interface enhancements.

  • HP iPAQ 312 Travel Companion

    It may not be entirely rational buying a GPS for its beautiful screen and multimedia features, but the 312 almost makes the case despite its numerous bugs and flaws.

  • Microsoft Windows Vista SP1

    Microsoft pushes its first service pack for Vista out the door. Is it a salvation, a non-event or a flop?

  • HP iPAQ 900 Series

    This top-of-the-line "business messenger" runs Windows Mobile 6 and includes a QWERTY thumb keyboard, a predictive text tool, push-email capability, a 2.46-inch touch screen and a 3 megapixel camera. It also has HSDPA support, Assisted GPS, Bluetooth 2.0 and integrated Wi-Fi.

  • HP iPAQ 200 Series

    Designed for business users who don't require phone functionality, its large 4-inch VGA touch screen lends itself to enterprise applications and third-party vertical solutions. Scanners and bar code readers can easily be attached for field forces needing to take orders. It has integrated WiFi and Bluetooth support, and can be used as a VoIP handset.

  • Pinnacle Studio 11

    Pinnacle's Studio Ultimate offers a nice bridging gap product for those with low or high end video shooting equipment but little knowledge in video editing. Its Activation process is a royal pain, and set-up is likewise fiddly, but it ranks amongst the best in its class for ease-of-use video editing.
