Reviews

Asus VW223B

The Asus VW223B is acceptable for its intended audience — those who need to add a second monitor cheaply, and are undemanding in its use.
Sony PlayStation 3 (40GB)

Sony's built the PlayStation 3 with a definite eye on the future. Can it maintain its lead in the gaming arena with its new console?
Bose 3-2-1 Series II

This is a beautifully designed system, with great features for the price.
Canon DC220

A simple DVD camcorder with decent performance and image quality, the DC220 won't blow you away but neither will it let you down.
Canon MD160

If you're not fussed by HD, or recording to DVD or hard disk, then the MD160 is a perfectly serviceable, if otherwise unremarkable camcorder.
Panasonic SDR-H250

The H250 has a lot to offer today — notably a great lens, flexible storage and usable manual features — but it'll soon look as quaint and outmoded as VHS.
Panasonic HDC-SD1

Great image quality from this SDHC-based high-definition camcorder but its petite size makes it hard to hold still.
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

Twilight Princess contains the same expertly designed puzzles and time-tested gameplay that you've come to expect from the series, though parts of its presentation feel stuck in the past.
