Reviews

  • Garmin Nuvi 5000

    It might be perfect for truck drivers, but the 5.2-inch Garmin 5000 is a bit too big for us car-bound road denizens. And the lack of Bluetooth hands-free, lane guidance and junction view condemns it to also-ran status.

  • Forza Motorsport 3

    The next instalment, coming in October, offers pumped up visuals, error prone AI drivers and a rewind feature to undo nasty little incidents, like dates with the Armco.

  • Brother MFC-990CW

    The Brother MFC-990CW is a speedy, fully capable all-in-one device that earns our recommendation for an individual or a family that will make use of its touchscreen and telephone/answering machine.

  • Lenovo ThinkPad T400

    Lenovo's ThinkPad T400 is another fine entry into its portfolio, but be prepared to spend extra to get the features you need.

  • Samsung Omnia Icon

    Its excellent multimedia support, storage and gorgeous display make the Omnia better for people who put pleasure before business.

  • BlackBerry Curve 8520

    With the BlackBerry Curve 8520, RIM has done a good job of creating an affordable phone with all the right features, although you might miss 3G connectivity. Just make sure you get it in black.

  • LG GM730

    The GM730's feature set makes it feel like it belongs in 2008. Unless you really like the design, there are much better WiMo phones out there to choose from.

  • Brother DCP-165C Multifunction Printer

    We've tested plenty of printers at CNET, but very few have frustrated us as much as the Brother DCP-165C multifunction has. The counter-intuitive set-up, bland design, deplorable print quality and crawling output speeds earn this printer a double thumbs down.

  • Nokia E75

    Nokia's E75 looks the part and mostly performs well too, but its single day battery life is a major let-down when compared to last year's E-Series offerings.

  • The Godfather II

    Even if it were finished, this movie-inspired action game wouldn't be deserving of its prestigious licence.

  • HP TouchSmart tx2 (1015AU)

    HP's TouchSmart tx2 is its next-generation tablet PC, stuck in last generation's body.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended

    After spending a few weeks working with a beta version, we've concluded that there's just enough that's better in the CS4 updates to Photoshop that many people will find themselves sighing, biting the bullet, and upgrading.

  • Chrome (beta)

    Google has rethought the Internet browser — some of its basic underpinnings are quite novel — but users will recognise some features as they exist in other, open-source browsers on the market today.

  • HP Officejet J6480

    The Officejet J6480 is Hewlett-Packard's newest all-in-one printer with a host of features designed to appeal to small-to-midsize businesses that want a low-cost, feature-rich device capable of handling projects across the board. The price and features set make the J6480 one of our favourite do-it-all devices.

  • Toshiba Qosmio G40

    Like its predecessor, the Qosmio G30, Toshiba's flagship multimedia desktop replacement offers a complete suite of entertainment features. The G40 is slightly slimmer and has a couple of tricks up its sleeve.

  • HTC Touch

    While not a iPhone killer, the HTC Touch represents good value for money. If you can do without 3G support or a high-res camera, then the Touch will offer most features you'd require from a smartphone.

  • Windows Live Hotmail

    Drag-and-drop message organisation and a built-in MP3 player are among the notable new features to this radical overhaul of Hotmail.

  • Apple Final Cut Studio 2

    Final Cut Studio 2 is a solid value and worthy upgrade for serious film editors who work on Macs. However, hobbyists should consider simpler software.

  • Samsung E900

    You'll need to retrain your thumb to operate the E900, which features touch-activated keys. The phone has some cool features, but you may find yourself accidentally hanging up on people or deleting half-composed texts.

  • Norton PartitionMagic 8

    If you need to partition your live hard drive, Norton PartitionMagic 8 is still the application to beat.
