- Verdict
- You just have to remember this is a fun speaker option rather than one that will gain you respect from your audiophile mates
- Price
- £50

- Verdict
- Where the Sonos S5 succeeds is in its simplicity
- Price
- £345/$399

Mobi Headphonies portable speakers
Coolest speaker around?
9 October 2009 16:00 GMT
- The Good
- Fairly inexpensive, balanced sound, looks pretty cool (if you're a teenager)

- Not particularly durable, can't charge while playing, no auto switch off, needs to face away from you for best sound
- Verdict
- The Headphonies have a few design flaws, but once you get used to this – it does what it's meant to. It's a portable speaker that stands out from the crowd

- £70

TV to go?
18 November 2009 12:00 GMT
- The Good
- 12 channels constantly streaming, easy to use, switching channels is a doddle
- The Bad
- Can't save programmes to watch later, channel selection isn't that great, resolution could be better

Will this drive you down the convergence path?
20 November 2009 9:00 GMT
- The Good
- Boosts GPS reception, built-in speaker, holds phone secure
- The Bad
- Price
- Verdict
- For those that must follow through with convergence, this does its part to overcome the GPS reception and small speaker problems that you encounter without it. But once you've parted with the cash, we'd have rather bought an independent TomTom unit with greater functionality

23 November 2009 15:44 GMT
- The Good
- Good hardware, bags of potential, multitasking options
- The Bad
- Battery life, lack of apps, lacks aspect switching
- Verdict
- The N900 is an extremely capable handset but it needs aspect switching for the home pages, it needs the Flash support enhancing and it needs to develop the app offering. Until these things arrive the N900 is a supporting role, rather than the star of the show

Apple Mac mini 2.53GHz
An ideal starter Mac?
23 October 2009 9:00 GMT
- The Good
- Compact design, near silent operation, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and plenty of power
- The Bad
- No SD card slot, USB slots close
- Verdict
- So there are few niggles with the Mac mini. It's the usual seamless operation we've come to expect from Apple. You take it out of the box and it just works. With the upgrades coming in at the same prices as the last versions, the new Mac mini looks very tempting indeed

BlackBerry Bold 9700 - First Look
An update worth getting excited about? 21 October 2009 19:04 GMT- The Good
- Great keyboard, excellent screen
- The Bad
- Nothing in the user interface has really changed
- Verdict
- Overall, in our short time with the device, the Bold 9700 seems like a solid improvement on the old Bold. It doesn't do anything terribly revolutionary - focusing on the communications experience above everything else - but it's a solid smartphone choice for those who put messaging above everything else

INQ Mini 3G mobile phone
Social mobiling on a budget?
29 October 2009 15:24 GMT
- The Good
- Social network integration, affordable, HSDPA
- The Bad
- Poor keyboard, no 3.5mm jack, no FM radio, could take a step further with integration
- Verdict
- For those who want a compact and affordable phone, which offers the integration of the major social networks, then the INQ Mini 3G is well worth a look. But do try the keyboard as we found this the most annoying aspect of the device

- The Good
- Sound
- The Bad
- Size
- Verdict
- The Voix MPX is an impressive speaker system that will allow you to easily fill a room and, most likely, piss off the neighbours. They are just a bit big
- Price
