OLPC XO-1 (One Laptop Per Child) review
Reviews Why should rich Western kids get all the cool kit? Nicolas Negroponte's ambitious plan to bridge the global digital divide has borne fruit at last. The XO-1 costs twice as much -- $200 (£100) -- as he'd originally hoped for, and lacks the hand...

Nikon Coolpix S610 review
Reviews The Active Child mode will be a big selling point for anyone who's ever chased a child around the house with a conventional compact digicam, though it's not really any more effective than the crude and simple alternative -- half-pressing the...

Dell Latitude D620 review
Reviews As the middle child in the business-focused Latitude brood, the Dell Latitude D620 is larger than the ultra-portable D410 and smaller than the middle-sized D820. Like its big brother, the D620 has undergone an extensive overhaul, emerging with some...

Canon HR10 review
Reviews The DVD-recordable child in Canon's nursery of consumer HD camcorders, the HR10 has the distinction of being our least favourite of the lot. Because it records to DVDs in the AVCHD format, it lacks the speed and compatibility of the less-expensive...

Archos 704 Wi-Fi review
Reviews The Archos 704 Wi-Fi is the love child of a portable media player and a PDA. As you would expect, it can playback movies, pump out music and show digital snaps, but like a PDA it has a touchscreen, support for Wi-Fi and a built-in Web browser.

Pentax Optio A40 review
Reviews But we still associate Pentax compacts with cheery, child-like styling and such novelties as the sound of a cat miaowing when you press a button. The Pentax Optio A40 is at the top end of the company's Optio range, boasting 12 megapixels and a £185...

Toshiba SD-P91S review
Reviews If you're a child, nag your parents silly until they relent and buy you one. Long journeys aren't fun, especially if you're a parent. Fortunately, portable DVD players offer some respite for all involved.

Pentax Optio E30 review
Reviews SD cards and AA batteries are convenient and continue the budget theme of this sub-£100 child-friendly camera. The Pentax Optio E30 may look squat for a point-and-shoot digital compact camera, but it's redeemed by a friendly, perky interface.

Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTX review
Reviews The poster child, the 3D shooter Crysis, is set to debut in March 2007, and even that might not put all of the next-gen bells and whistles into play. The GeForce 8800 GTX is everything we'd hoped it would be.

Apple MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2.4GHz) review
Reviews We have reviewed the 15-inch, 2.4GHz middle child in the MacBook family, which costs £1,599. Apple's recent update of its 13-inch MacBook line was a modest one, with an incremental processor upgrade and updated default components.

Alienware Aurora Star Wars Edition review
Reviews Despite our initial reservations over a PC that has the Death Star on one side and Emperor Palpatine on the other, this special-edition Alienware PC will elicit a reluctant smile from anyone who was a child when Star Wars first came out in 1977.
