iPhone 3GS / 3G Dock and External Battery Pack Reviewed

Over the past year my iPhone 3G’s battery life has decreased. This may be due to my reading emails, checking Twitter, playing games, listening to music or web surfing. Lately I have been charging my iPhone every night and even with a fresh charge to start the day I usually get the “less [...]

Genius Easypen i405 Graphics Tablet Review

With today’s modern computers, the medium in which we interact with them has grown from simple text to media rich compositions, serving to both entertain and to convey information on any myriad of topics. In fact, the medium has so outgrown the simple printed word that many of us find it advantageous to include charts, pictures, and yes even drawings and illustrations in our own works.

Atomic Pico Bluetooth Dongle

Atomic Pico Bluetooth Dongle

Bluetooth is prevalent in lots of our devices, but it has yet to become a standard in our PCs, laptops and netbooks, and I’m not sure why exactly. You’d think with all of those BT devices out there more manufacturers would start to make Bluetooth a standard feature. I’ve got the Acer Aspire One D250 [...]

Extra Video Converter Pro

Today I’ve got the third in this little series of video converters to be used with the iPod. The last two I looked at were free programs, today I’ve got Extra Video Converter Pro that runs about $35. Are there any differences between a free program and one that you’ve got to pay for? Is [...]

Thermaltake Massive23 ST Notebook Cooler Reviewed

Thermaltake Massive23 ST Notebook Cooler Reviewed

Our laptops and netbooks are excellent things, they allow us to be much more mobile, and in some instances they’ve replaced desktop computers. I like my netbooks and laptop quite a bit and I want them to last, and we all know heat is a major enemy of computer components, it can not only damage [...]

Thermaltake Vi-on 2.5” SATA HDD USB Enclosure Reviewed

Our digital world is all about storage really, if you think about, all of our stuff is just little bits of data stuck somewhere, be it on a hard disc, USB drive or memory card, it’s just there and it’s really intangible. That storage though is limited, so we’re always trying to find a [...]

Nokia N78 – Final Thoughts

I have been lucky enough to have used the Nokia N78 as my primary handset for a month now (previously my main handset was a N95-1) and it’s time for me to conclude my review of the handset.
Regular readers of the site will probably have seen my previous coverage, if not check out my Nokia [...]

3 Mobile Broadband – New HSDPA USB Modem

3 Mobile Broadband – New HSDPA USB Modem

I received a very exciting new gadget through the post on Saturday – a brand new 3 HSDPA Mobile Broadband dongle.

GooSync Review & Giveaway

GooSync Review & Giveaway

Since my previous post on Google Calendar Sync, I have been using GooSync to sync my Google Calendar to my N95 for the last couple of weeks.  I have to say that I have been very impressed with the simplicity of it all..

3 Skype Phone

A week or so after getting hold of the one of the amazing Skype Phones from 3 I finally got around to uploading an un-boxing video to YouTube.
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QH1c_ibVOhQ
The video is the usual ceremony which then leads onto a tour around the handset and a very quick look at some of the phones features.
So far I [...]

N95 8GB – Should You Get It?

Without any doubt the original N95 is certainly a feature-rich handset and surely packs a punch compared to other handsets on the market. As feature rich as it is, it has been plagued with problems which maybe the general public aren’t as tolerant too as a gadget-geek like myself is. I have been [...]

Nokia N95 & N95 8GB Video Comparison

N95 v N93i Video Comparison

In the second part of my N95/N93i comparison I look at the video quality of the two handsets. Again the examples were taken on the same day as the photo comparison in Torquay back in early July. Although far from being scientific, the videos were taken at the same location within a minute or [...]

Sky+ and Remote Record

OMG Sky+ has to be the best thing ever invented!

Yesterday at 8am (yes it was a Sunday!) I had a Sky installer on my doorstep ready to upgrade my standard Sky equipment to the wonders of Sky+. It’s something that I have wanted for ages but have refused to pay Sky £10 a month [...]

N95 v N93i Photo Comparison

Back at the beginning of July I was fortunate enough to get hold of a Nokia N93i to play with for a while.. It’s taken me until now to get around to writing it up as it’s just been a busy ‘ole summer (as you can probably tell from my lack of posts recently).

Live TV on your Mobile

Live TV on your Mobile

I love the whole idea of being able to do so much with a mobile handset, and as we all know the N95 pretty much covers it all; video, pictures, Internet, GPS to name a few!
One application that isn’t covered by default on the N95 is mobile TV. I know that the handset doesn’t [...]

N95: Secondary Camera Comparison

The N95 is an all-round stunning piece of hardware – It’s a great 5 mega-pixel camera, connects you seamlessly to hotspots via WiFi, records DVD-like quality video and of course has the amazing built-in GPS.
All of these amazing features distract from one major function of this handset that is often neglected – it is in-fact [...]
