Reviews

  • HTC HD2

    HTC's HD2 reads like a perfectly balanced mathematical equation of geeky desire, and when compared to last year's Touch HD, this new model has pluses next to every spec.

  • Sony Vaio W

    Attempting to create a premium-priced version of a netbook, Sony has added an HD display to the Vaio W. It's an attractive step-up package, but the internal components are the same as are in cheaper models.

  • Apple iPod Touch 64GB (3rd generation)

    Not much doing here in Touch-land. A new 64GB model, no 16GB unit and price cuts for everyone! Oh, and a bit more performance.

  • Samsung Galaxy Icon

    While we like the design, Samsung needs to do more with the software. Without customisation, Android's absent features are glaringly obvious.

  • Eco Reader

    Finally, an ebook reader comes to the Australian market — with claims of open file format support and long battery life to boot.

  • Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6)

    Intel Mac users will like Snow Leopard's smartly designed interface enhancements, and its Exchange support is a must-have (especially with Outlook for Mac on the way). With a ton of technological improvements, Snow Leopard is worth the AU$39 upgrade fee.

  • Sony PlayStation 3 Slim

    With a smaller design, more energy-efficient operation, lower price tag and built-in Blu-ray and multimedia capabilities, the PS3 Slim delivers a compelling package at a more affordable price.

  • Microsoft Windows 7 (Home Premium)

    Windows 7 is more than what Vista should have been — it's where Microsoft needed to go. How much damage Vista did and whether Windows 7 is enough for people to finally abandon Windows XP are questions that nobody has the answers to right now.
