HP Pavilion dv7-1005tx

While everyone scrambles for the latest low-spec netbook, the DV7 takes the opposite route, promoting itself as the ultimate entertainment notebook. It's almost right, too.

Adobe Illustrator CS4

While it looks like Illustrator CS4 will be a must-have upgrade, don't feel bad if you've got some lingering annoyance that it should have had these must-have features a couple of versions ago.

Fujifilm FinePix J100

The J100 is definitely a point-and-shoot — because you can't do anything else with it.

Linksys WVC54GCA Wireless-G Internet Home Monitoring Camera

Wi-Fi cameras for home security ought to be a no-brainer, and at this price, the Linksys pretty much is. We just wish it worked seamlessly cross-browser, and took better pictures.

Garmin Nuvi 760

If you're in the market for a GPS navigator with an FM transmitter and MP3 playback, not to mention excellent safety camera warnings, the Nuvi 760 is the one to go for.

Panasonic SC-PT865W

It's got a few weak points, but movie buffs with large DVD libraries will find this a great way to add surround sound to their home theatre set-ups — particularly if wireless rear speakers are a necessity.

Logitech PlayGear Pocket Lite (DS)

The Logitech PlayGear Pocket Lite is a perfectly good case for the DS Lite, but many will find it to be unnecessary overkill for the already durable Nintendo handheld.

Vaio CS series

Sony's fashion-conscious CS series offers a range of bright colours and an LED panel that lights up when you stroke the cover.

Garmin Nuvi 260W

A good, easy to use GPS, with great verbal speed and red light camera warnings which, unfortunately, aren't installed by default.

Panasonic Viera TX-37LZD800A

The Panasonic Viera TX-37LZD800A is a very capable telly and is ideally suited to wide rooms due to its excellent viewing angles.

Logitech Cordless Desktop S520

It's hard to get too excited about Logitech's basic Cordless Desktop S520, but on close inspection, a few design elements help it stand out. If you typically find keyboard hot keys a good idea that's poorly implemented, we think you'll like this mostly well-designed mouse and keyboard set.

Parrot MINIKIT Slim

The Parrot Minikit Slim makes it very easy to make and receive calls without taking your eyes off the road to look at your phone, but a poorly executed visor clip makes this otherwise excellent speakerphone feel cheaper than it is.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T700

Sony's T700 is a winner in the looks department, but beneath the brushed metal exterior lies a clever way to share photos. With 4GB of internal memory and a 3.5-inch LCD touchscreen, the T700 is a good, if slightly expensive camera, especially given that image quality isn't always up to scratch.

Apple has set the Nano back on track with the thinnest, lightest design yet, and has features that are hard to ignore.

Fujifilm FinePix F60fd

It may not be brimming with new features and the controls are all over the shop, but the Fujifilm FinePix F60fd looks great and so do the pictures. Capable automatic settings make this a true point-and-shoot, with clever face detection helping it stand out from the crowd. We just wish it weren't so confusing.

Panasonic VIERA TX-32LXD80A

The Panasonic VIERA TX-32LXD80A is a strong performer for the price in terms of picture quality, but it's let down slightly by its lacklustre sound.

EVGA UV Plus+

We suspect the market for DisplayLink devices is reasonably niche due to its limitations; however, for those doing simple work, it's a cheap way to get multiple monitors running.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed

The Force Unleashed's action can be incredible, though it too often strays from what it does best.

Broken, buggy, and shallow gameplay leaves Mercenaries 2's world in flames.
