Nikon D700 review
Reviews However, it's still a tad heavier than full-frame competitors such as the Sony Alpha DSLR-A900 (950g) and the Canon EOS 5D series (about 800g). For those who don't need the indestructibility or built-in vertical grip of a traditional pro dSLR such...

Canon Digital IXUS 870 IS review
Reviews The 4x f2.8-5.8 28-112mm lens is a highlight of the camera; the wide angle is so useful to have on a camera this small, and it's a tad longer zoom than on the 860. Canon's Digital IXUS range features so many models now, deciphering what makes one...

Hands-on with the Philips SA5285: New dog, same tricks
Crave Menus are clear, too, though sometimes a tad sluggish, and nowhere near as smooth as some of the Sony and Apple competition. Apple's new MacBooks are all over the Web like flies around a Duffy album, and for us in the music world, our reluctance to...

Photos: Eee PC 'Ultimate' S101 takes netbooks through puberty
Crave It's wider than the Eee PC 1000, but it's also a tad thinner, so you can use it as a makeshift blade when your bodyguard is felled by nefarious terrorists. Asus has decided the current Eee PC is a little too plasticky to be taken seriously by be...

HP Media Vault Pro MV5020 review
Reviews In our tests with a Gigabit Ethernet-enabled PC, it returned a read speed of just over 17Mbps and a write speed of just a tad under 13Mbps. That's the thinking behind HP's latest media-friendly network hard drive, the Media Vault Pro MV5020, which...

Olympus Micro Four Thirds concept: Lounge lizard
Crave With the working Panasonic Lumix G1 the first entry into the Micro Four Thirds system, Olympus is a tad behind with the early-warning E-A1 and this non-working mock-up. Anyone who thought Panasonic had stolen a march on its co-developer should be...

Alertme review
Reviews This is a tad ironic, since annoying the neighbours -- via text -- is exactly what the system is designed to do. In the past, you'd have to ring a neighbour or return to check things yourself, but today, a gadget called Alertme promises to do all...

Photos: Exclusive ears-on with Denon AH-D7000 headphones
Crave And they're a little more snug to the head than the D5000s, which to us always felt just a tad too gentle on the skull. If you're familiar with Denon's outstanding AH-D5000 headphones, and wondered how on Earth they could be bettered, we've got...

Panasonic HDC-SD9 review
Reviews Many of the buttons, especially the face detection and Pre-rec (for 3-second pre-recording) are a tad small, but that's to be expected on a device this size. With its eye-catching, compact body and relatively low price, the Panasonic HDC-SD9 seems...

Olympus E-420 review
Reviews The lens is very good but the sensor is a tad noisy, so it evens out. The E-420 is an upgrade of the E-410, boasting a larger, better, 69mm (2.7-inch) LCD, improved autofocus in live view mode, face detection and slightly faster continuous shooting.

Vodafone 725 review
Reviews Certainly its camera could be better and its music player is a tad basic. Priced at just £50, the 725 is an own-brand handset from Vodafone that's aiming to tempt you with the double whammy of a low price tag and an impressive range of features.

Medion Akoya S5610 review
Reviews This means it's got enough speed to allow you to play the latest 3D games, just as long as you turn the detail down a tad. We've already had a sneak peek at Intel's new Centrino 2 technology in our Acer Aspire 2930 preview, but now we can finally...

Asus Eee Box review
Reviews That being the case, you'll probably be a tad disappointed to learn it only comes with an 80GB hard drive. Asus has performed a minor miracle in the laptop market with its Eee PC, so it stands to reason that it would try the same trick in the...

Nokia 7310 Supernova: Less Oasis, more Madonna
Crave Supernova' might be overdoing it just a tad -- perhaps the Finns are revealing a hitherto unsuspected level of irony. If you thought the days of fully exchangeable phone covers were over, think again, because the Nokia 7310 Supernova lets you jazz...

Toshiba Satellite L300 review
Reviews Anyway, we doubt the L300 will appeal to those who are constantly on the road -- at 2.49kg it's a tad on the heavy side. Toshiba has a strong reputation for being able to put together budget laptops that have the look and feel of more expensive...
