Navman iCN 720 review

Reviews These are essentially the same device, the £549 iCN 750 coming with maps for 17 Western European countries pre-installed and ready for use; the £399 iCN 720, reviewed here, has the same maps pre-installed, but only the UK ones are available to use...

Acer Aspire 8920G preview

Reviews Starting at £899, the Aspire 8920G isn't available until later this week, but we've had the pleasure of testing a pre-production sample of this 18.4-inch desktop replacement. We've yet to run benchmarks -- since our pre-production sample refuses...

Reviews Texas Instruments' HD2+ chipset has been replaced from the last range for the HD4 model, there are two HDMI inputs that pre-empt demand for high definition, and a Freeview tuner to meet current demand for digital television.

Ministry of Sound MP3 FM Stix (512MB) review

Reviews Signalling a more mature era for the Ministry, the MOS MP3 FM Stix is pre-stocked with a selection of ten chill-out tracks like Das Glockenspiel, which though threatening to erupt into an all-out high-speed trance nightmare, ultimately decides to...

PURE Digital Chronos review

Reviews The aerial is pre-attached in the form of a trailing strand of wire. If you're lucky enough to start later on certain days, you can pre-programme the Chronos to match your lifestyle and then never feel compelled to fiddle with it again.

RIM BlackBerry 8800 review

Reviews We didn't particularly like the pre-installed maps -- they seemed slow to load and didn't display enough information. The pre-installed document viewer will open JPEG, PDF, Excel and Word files. The BlackBerry 8800 is RIM's latest email-centric...

Eee PC 901 review

Reviews Another changes the on-screen resolution -- like a makeshift zoom function -- and another cycles through pre-set performance modes -- super performance, high performance, auto high performance and power saving.

Samsung E770 review

Reviews VibeTonz is most noticeable -- and fun -- during gaming, and the handset is pre-loaded with four games that support it to give you a feel for things. For other features, like using image effects, frames and the self timer, you can drop into a menu...

Sonic Gear i-Steroid review

Reviews However, the rules of physics governing audio output do not state that expensive equipment is an absolute pre-requisite of good sound. To be brutally honest, it sounds just like a single-valve pre-amplifier at this price point should sound.

E-TEN glofiish X500 review

Reviews As for the GPS antenna, you can get a fix on your location and then send that location information via an SMS using pre-defined texts. E-TEN should have got someone with a grasp of English to check out its pre-set SMS texts as there are plenty of...
