    Livescribe Pulse Smartpen review

    4.5 REVIEW Will this let you ditch the laptop for meetings? 10 September 2009 11:30 GMT

    Sony Bravia 3DTV - First Look review

    FIRST LOOK Can Sony master the third dimension? 7 September 2009 16:02 GMT

    4.0 REVIEW Can the camera tripod work for your phone? 1 September 2009 12:29 GMT

    Samsung Reclaim review

    3.5 REVIEW Can you be green and productive? 28 August 2009 10:28 GMT

    Samsung's Reclaim is, as it might sound, a phone that has been made with "reclaimed" materials. So it is something you want to be seen with, or something you should send back to the dump? We took a closer look.

    From an environmental standpoint...

    4.5 REVIEW Will put you in the geocaching picture? 17 August 2009 16:45 GMT

    Looking at the Garmin 550t (t standing for topographical maps), you would be forgiven for thinking someone had handed you the previous version. It's so alike, that at first we thought that Garmin had just sent us the wrong unit.

    3.5 REVIEW Sound as a fifty-nine pound? 7 August 2009 16:00 GMT

    What colour is the sea? A strange question to ask at the beginning of a headphone review, but you'll soon see where we are going with this. You see, on a good day, the sea can be green or blue, on a bad brown or grey, and that's before you start looking...

    4.5 REVIEW Will this liven up your swimming? 23 July 2009 15:39 GMT

    Swimming is a great sport, but up and down, up and down the length of the pool can be dull. No music, no sounds of the world, just the rush of water passing your ears and the occasional announcement over the Tannoy.
