Garmin iQue 3000 review

Reviews In addition to the iQue 3000, Garmin includes all you'll need to hit the road. As with other GPS handhelds on the market, there's no desktop cradle, emphasising the road-warrior image of the iQue 3000.FeaturesThe Garmin iQue 3000 comes with the...

Hitachi DZ-GX3300E review

Reviews Hitachi's DZ-GX3300E won't blow you away with its middle-of-the-road image quality, but a quick start-up time and the ability to edit video in the camera might appeal to less particular amateur videographers.

Fujitsu Siemens LifeBook E8410 review

Reviews G connectivity and a webcam, so if you do need to take one of these laptops on the road, you'll be able to stay in touch. Fujitsu Siemens' E Series LifeBooks are designed to offer desktop-level functionality in a laptop format.

Sony DualShock 3 review

Reviews Chief among them: the built-in lithium-ion rechargeable battery isn't removable, so when it eventually dies -- admittedly, probably several years down the road -- you'll have to buy a completely new controller.

Ultra-portable laptops

Reviews Big, powerful laptops have their place -- but they're completely useless for taking on the road. They're often extremely heavy and, despite manufacturers' claims, have very limited battery life. Ultra-portable laptops are far better for those on...

HP iPaq hx2790 review

Reviews Built around a sturdy frame and case, it's been designed to take road abuse with rounded corners and protective rubber inserts that offer some extra grip. By sticking to the basics, it generally does a good job of mixing just enough entertainment...

Lenovo ThinkPad X32 review

Reviews This ultraportable offers enough keyboard and screen space, battery life, and connectivity to get some serious work done on the road. Editors' note: Lenovo completed its purchase of IBM's PC division on 2 April, 2005, so you will no longer see the...

Panasonic Toughbook CF-W7 review

Reviews Available at the end of February for around £1,500, the CF-W7 is intended for businessmen, so-called road-warriors and the pathologically butterfingered. Most people will tell you that Panasonic's Toughbook laptops are aimed at construction workers.

Canon Digital IXUS Wireless review

Reviews Like the IXUS 50 (which is around £100 cheaper), the Digital IXUS Wireless has a 35mm-to-105mm (in 35mm-film terms) lens with a relatively slow f/2.8-to-f/4.9 maximum aperture, a 51mm (2.0-inch) LCD and optical viewfinder, limited manual control...

Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook P7230 review

Reviews The Lifebook P7230 is for dirty stop-outs, road warriors and anyone that likes showing off with dinky ultraportables. It weighs next to nothing, fits in a handbag or manbag, and it can go online pretty much anywhere.

Dell Inspiron 1525 review

Reviews As middle-of-the-road as a laptop gets, Dell's Inspiron 1525 is an excellent choice for basic computing, especially if you take the time to configure a system to your needs via Dell's online configurator.

Samsung DVD-HD870 review

Reviews With all the bluster about HD DVD and Blu-ray, you could be forgiven for thinking that it was the end of the road for the humble DVD player. In reality, however, the DVD player has plenty of life left in it yet.

Toshiba Portege R500-10U review

Reviews Whereas many laptops are too bulky to be taken on the road, its 779g chassis, long battery life and transflexive screen make it the perfect travel companion. The Toshiba Portege R500 is an ultraportable in the truest sense of the word.
