HTC Shift: Smart phone morphs into Vista UMPC

Crave When we were sent this photo of HTC's Shift by its PR company, we stared at our screens for a very long time indeed. The HTC Shift is similar in many ways to the HTC Advantage (aka the T-Mobile Ameo).

Keeping it foolish with the Hercules DJ Control MP3

Crave This £79 control deck plugs into your PC and can be used to mix, scratch, pitch-shift and loop MP3s. Ever since Mozart famously said, "DJs are glorified CD players. My piano is the pimp," DJs have been dealt a bad rap in the mainstream press.

Video reviews round-up: Unmissable moving picture action

Crave Don't worry, he's had a haircut since then.Far smarter is Rory, who mercilessly rips into the latest hapless UMPC to wander across his path in his HTC Shift video review. You may not realise it, but CNET.co.uk is a Jessica Alba-level hotbed of video.

Ricoh Caplio R7: Quality compact. Fact!

Crave The R7 is a 8.15-megapixel compact, with CCD-shift image stabilisation in a slim metal body. Ricoh may not be the best-known name in the camera business, and you won't find the Caplio R7 in Argos. But we've been excited about the R7 since first...

Nikon launches D60, P60 and new Coolpix compacts

Crave The camcorder's three progressive-scan CCDs and effective resolution of 1,920x1,080 pixels are impressive, but the actual chip resolution of 976x548 pixels means that the full hi-def resolution is interpolated using a pixel-shift mechanism.

Hands-on with the Nokia 5320 and 5220 XpressMusic phones

Crave Another good move was the decision to shift the native 3.5mm headphone socket to the bottom of the handsets, as opposed to the side-mounted design seen on the N95, for example. At a swanky meeting with Nokia yesterday, we got to play with Nokia's...

Hands-on with iRiver's new P10 media player

Crave You just use the stylus to shift boxes around and increase their shape. iRiver's new P10 is a super-sexy hard disk-based PMP, similar in function to the iAMOLED. But with LCD instead of AMOLED technology, we're told it will be cheaper.
