Apple MacBook Pro (17-inch) review
Reviews Following on the heels of the 15.4-inch MacBook Pro and replacing the 17-inch PowerBook G4, the 17-inch MacBook Pro delivers many of the same beloved features as its little sibling, such as a scrolling track pad, the Sudden Motion Sensor and an...

Acer TravelMate 2355LCi review
Reviews This inexpensive mainstream laptop delivers ample performance, a big screen and a comfortable keyboard and touch pad. The keyboard, the touch pad and the two mouse buttons are all agreeably wide, though we wish that the hollow-feeling keys were...

Apple MacBook Pro 2008 (15-inch, 2.5GHz) review
Reviews By now we're very familiar with the minimalist layout -- open the lid and inside you'll find only a power button, a full-size keyboard, stereo speakers, a sizeable touch pad with a single mouse button and a built-in iSight camera.

Apple MacBook Pro (1.83GHz) review
Reviews The MacBook Pro has just a power button, a big keyboard framed by stereo speakers, a very large touch pad with a single mouse button, and one new feature: a handy built-in iSight camera that sits above the display.

Olympus Stylus mju 780 review
Reviews The standard round click pad is replaced by an enormous square pad, with buttons above and below. The Olympus Stylus mju 780 is a fairly nondescript digital compact camera with a couple of nice touches that help to alleviate the fog of anonymity.

Samsung i780 review
Reviews The touchpad lets you control a mini-cursor and you can make selections by pressing down on the pad. It differs beneath the screen: where the typical D-pad would be, there's a tiny touchpad instead. It's not hard to tell that Samsung is aiming the...

Logitech diNovo Mini Keyboard review
Reviews It's more intuitive than it sounds, and our only complaint is that the d-pad mode was sometimes not as responsive as we'd like. The middle of the pad acts like your main mouse button, and you hold down one of the function buttons and a menu button...

iRiver E100 review
Reviews We're still impressed, even though the four-way directional pad has a sporadically unresponsive nature. Sure, this fiddly control pad doesn't improve the use of the similarly sluggish menus, but it's blisteringly simple -- a killer feature for...

Creative Zen Micro (5GB) review
Reviews The centre touch pad, like the one found on the Micro's big brother, the Zen Touch, handles the scrolling through the player's menu system: The more you stray from the centre of the pad, the faster you scroll.

Samsung YH-820 review
Reviews What seems like a pleasant mix of PowerBook and iPod aesthetics is let down by a tacky-feeling control pad that makes a surprisingly audible creaking sound when changing tracks or navigating functions.

Nokia 3250 review
Reviews When you twist the number pad through 180 degrees you get music control buttons on the front of the casing, and the built-in music player kicks in automatically. Quite literally -- its key feature is that you can twist the number pad section...

Casio Exilim EX-Z1000 review
Reviews Manual focus is easier to adjust on the EX-Z1000 than on most point-and-shoot cameras -- you use the control pad's left and right buttons to change the focal length while framing the shot. The direction pad controls all of the camera's functions...

Samsung Digimax L60 review
Reviews Next to the screen sit the zoom rocker, a four-way-plus-OK control pad and mode, effect, setting/delete and review/print buttons. A wide lanyard hole sits between the zoom rocker and the control pad, with its textured base serving as a small thumb...

Sony Walkman NWZ-A829 review
Reviews Slightly larger than its predecessor, the A829's navigation pad has also been redesigned -- a four-way control pad sits in the middle. We've been consistently impressed with Sony's Walkman series and we've been eagerly anticipating the newest arrival.
