JVC HA-NC100 Noise Cancelling Headphones

The cushy JVC HA-NC100 Noise-cancelling headphones don't block out ambient noise entirely, but they do a good job of reducing it -- for an affordable price as well.

Bose QuietComfort 2 Acoustic Noise Cancelling headphones

Bearable 14-hour international flights? With these Bose noise-cancelling headphones to cut down the engine noise, we may have found a jetlag antidote.

Sennheiser PXC-300

It packs almost the same performance as the Bose QuietComfort 2 in a much smaller package and at about half the price.

Jabra C820s

For about a quarter of the price, Jabra's C820s noise-cancelling headphones deliver much of what the Bose QuietComfort 2 headphones offer.

Sennheiser MM 50 for iPhone

Compared to the headphones bundled with Apple's iPhone 3G the MM 50s are light years ahead. Exceptional sounding bass and its affordable price tag make the MM 50 a great choice for replacing those dodgy Apple ear buds.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3

It has been about two years since Panasonic's last LX-series camera, the DMC-LX2, was launched. One of the most interesting things about that model was its 16:9 aspect ratio sensor and a good range of manual controls not usually found in digital compact cameras. We spent a day with the upcoming successor to the LX2, the DMC-LX3. Here's what we found out.

Sony Bravia KDL32V4000

The Sony Bravia KDL32V4000 offers excellent detail, colour and contrast but despite its 1080p resolution the set's high price and motion issues let it down.

Olympus FE-320

It is easy to like the FE-320 for its stylish looks and feature-rich specifications. But what we like to applaud Olympus for is in making things work.

Olympus Mju 1060

In this season of offerings, we've noticed two growing trends among manufacturers: touchscreen-enabled or ultra-high resolution point-and-shoots. But Olympus' latest darling in its Mju family, the Mju 1060 has neither. So does this new shooter have what it takes to pit itself against other more sophisticated compacts?

Panasonic Viera TX-37LZ800M

This flagship 2008 Panasonic Viera LCD TV delivers brilliant colours and soulful sounds, but is held back by a less than ideal PC resolution support and a broken anti-judder 24p function.

Philips SHE9850 sound-isolating earphones

An excellent all-rounder, with good detail, a balanced, warm sound and superb comfort and fit. Deeper bass and brighter treble exists in competing models, but for almost all genres of music and in most listening environments, the SHE9850s will impress and for a good price.

HP Deskjet F4280 All-in-One

The HP Deskjet F4280 is an affordable printer for students and home users as it does a pretty good job of printing. However, if you also need a scanner that does a top job then this all-in-one printer is not for you.

Toshiba Regza 42AV500A

The Toshiba Regza 42AV500A is a great mid-range unit with an attractive price point. It's not perfect but it will certainly please the budget consumer.

Panasonic Viera TH-50PZ850A

This flagship Panasonic Viera TH-50PZ850A is just as good as or even better than the Pioneer LX Kuro in many areas and at a far more reasonable asking price, too.

Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Preferred

Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 isn't perfect, but it's the best dictation software available. We don't find this upgrade necessary for the most basic dictation, although new features may benefit heavily-accented English speakers and those who rely heavily on voice commands.

Panasonic SDR-SW20

The cool factor of waterproof gadgets is high, even when there's a subsequent trade-off in performance. Anyone going any deeper than snorkel depth will need to look elsewhere, but at least the price reflects the compromises made for that cheerily tough exterior.
