Samsung SGH-i780 review

Samsung SGH-i780 review

Review With two batteries and a separate charger, the SGH-i780 could be a wise choice for the mobile professional, although it's a bit bulky and the screen is a touch small for some applications.

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS review

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS review

Review Hardy Heron is an incremental set of advances on earlier versions, but all the advances are in the right direction. Unfortunately, a known and unfixed bug means we can't currently recommend it for enterprise use.

Editors Choice Award ASUS Eee PC 900 review

ASUS Eee PC 900 review

Review The ASUS Eee PC 900 is an excellent update to the Eee PC 701. The keyboard is still difficult to use, but the addition of a larger, higher-resolution screen, a multi-touch touchpad and more storage gives it the edge over its mini-notebook rivals.

Toshiba Portégé M700-110 review

Toshiba Portégé M700-110 review

Review The Portégé M700-110 is a generally solid 12.1in. convertible Tablet PC with a nice dual-mode touch-screen. It's a good choice for Tablet PC fans; if you need HSDPA or a webcam, it's a relatively small step up to the 3G11F model.

LifeSize Express review

LifeSize Express review

Review As an entry point into high-definition video conferencing (telepresence), LifeSize Express is hard to beat. It's a standalone solution that occupies the middle ground between PC-plus-webcam systems and vastly expensive telepresence suite installations.

Review Mozilla's Thunderbird 2 is a fine, free, extensible email client and a solid alternative to the pricey Microsoft Outlook 2007 or the free Windows Live Mail.
