Tweet
With the winter season on us once again, it is time to take to the slopes on and off screen. Microsoft is hoping it's on screen and on the X-Box and released the follow-up to the launch title of two years ago against EA SSX3. We havem't yet tested SSX...

REVIEW
9 December 2003 21:16 GMT

Logitech diNovo Media Desktop review
REVIEW
9 December 2003 16:36 GMT
Tweet
Whoever said style costs is still right. The latest keyboard from Logitech costs a whopping £200, but for a brief moment you might just think it’s worth paying for once you get your hands on it.
For starters it sports Bluetooth. Coming with... -
Linksys Wireless B Media Adapter review
REVIEW
9 December 2003 16:34 GMT
Tweet
Anyone who has a digital archive of either music or pictures knows the problems when it comes to sharing that information with others. It's all very well having 1,000 songs on your hard drive but if that disk is in your spare room and not your lounge...

Linksys Wireless B Game Adapter review
REVIEW
9 December 2003 16:18 GMT
Tweet
We all know the problem - the PC is in the spare room, the office or even the bedroom. The X-Box or PS2 is slap bang under your television in the lounge. No problem there - until of course the consoles go for the online gaming option. Suddenly without...

Logitech Extreme 3D Pro review
REVIEW
9 December 2003 16:09 GMT
Tweet
When games cost £30 you want to get the most out of them. Investing in a joystick is certainly one way to do it and it’s a must for flight games, but with so many to choose from how do you know you are getting the right one for the task in hand? Logitech...

Logitech Extreme Action Controller for PS2 review
REVIEW
9 December 2003 16:07 GMT
Tweet
Whoever said that a PS2 controller was just a controller doesn't know about the Extreme Action Controller from Logitech.
Taking it perhaps a tad too far, the latest controller features leather padding and gold-plated connectors. Other than... -
Logitech Precision Controller for Xbox review
REVIEW
9 December 2003 15:52 GMT
Tweet
Since the X-Box was launched there has always been plenty of debate about its controller. Even some six months after the launch, the controller when through a change. The end result made it smaller not only to fit in with children but a complaining Japanese...

Logitech Z3 speakers review
REVIEW
9 December 2003 15:46 GMT
Tweet
Sound in any environment is important, yet time and time again you see that most home speaker systems are the ones that the computer shipped with. Most of the time upgrading your speakers is an afterthought, but like anything upgrading can bring a whole...

Logitech z560 speaker set review
REVIEW
9 December 2003 15:42 GMT
Tweet
The new 5-piece Z560 THX certified speaker system from Logitech produces over 400 watts of power via four satellites and large sub-woofer. Not surprisingly the system gives you a very clear sound that copes superbly with bass and treble alike.

Tweet
The Logitech Cordless Desktop iTouch brings you the freedom of wireless connectivity to your computer desktop while offering you a few extra features at the same time.

REVIEW
9 December 2003 15:10 GMT
Tweet
Long live VHS isn't something you're likely to hear these days and if Panasonic has anything to say about this, the funeral's already happened. In steps the hopeful VHS slayer - the Panasonic DMR-HS2. A device that allows you to record to a built-in hard...

Sony NW-MS70D Network Walkman review
REVIEW
9 December 2003 12:36 GMT
Tweet
Sony’s foray into the MP3 market is a strange one. On the one side its player - The Network Walkman is small, sleek and well styled, on the other however the player isn’t actually an MP3 player.
Sony being Sony has once again decided to create... -
Logitech Pocket Video 550 review
REVIEW
9 December 2003 12:33 GMT
Tweet
While the Logitech Pocket Video 750 brings you an LCD display and 32Mb SD card in the box, the company has decided to create the entry level unit - the 550 without any of the above. This is an interesting decision because without an SD Card this unit...

Logitech Pocket Video 750 review
REVIEW
9 December 2003 12:31 GMT
Tweet
The Logitech Pocket Video 750 purports to be a handy digital video camera that you can put in your pocket and whip out when you need to capture that magical moment. It's a nice idea but in practice one that isn't quite right yet.
The main... -

Crucial Hi-Speed USB 7-in-1 Card Reader review
REVIEW
9 December 2003 12:20 GMT
Tweet
Similar in style to the Flash Go 2! Reader, Crucial’s 7-in-1 card reader is a compact affair that does what it sets out to do.
About the size of half a sandwich, the USB2.0 cable is hidden in a compartment at the rear of the unit. This makes... -

REVIEW
9 December 2003 12:13 GMT

In five years time mans best friend won’t be a dog that eats your slippers and pees on your Afghan rug, it will be a small electronic dog that leads an autonomous life while every so often connecting to the internet to send you pictures of how its day...

Panther – Apple 10.3 OS review
REVIEW
9 December 2003 12:02 GMT
Tweet
With 150 improvements on the last edition, you would think that you can expect a lot from Apple’s new Operating system and for the most part you would be right. That said for hardened Mac fans the new improvements aren’t the be all and end all. It’s more...

REVIEW
9 December 2003 11:57 GMT

Another year rolls on and that can only mean one thing - no not another version of FIFA to contend with, but Symantec’s Norton SystemWorks. For those not entirely aware of the Norton Phenomenon, Dr Norton has been rolling SystemWorks out for over two...

Wherever you look the world of technology is becoming more focused on digital media. Whether its cameras, music, or burning a CD we all now use our PCs for more than just bashing out the odd letter to the bank manager.

Adobe PhotoShop Album 2.0 review
REVIEW
9 December 2003 11:38 GMT
Tweet
Adobe’s strength in its Album software was apparent in the first incarnation of this series. One year on and Adobe are already presenting version 2.0. It might have a smartened up interface, but what lies under the bonnet isn’t very much more than the...
