Overall, the Glofiish X800 is a very capable phone. It is stuffed with features, has HSDPA, GPS and several genuinely useful interface tweaks. Battery life is excellent and the VGA screen is simply gorgeous.

Sony SRS-T10PC Portable Speaker Set Review
TrustedReviews have looked at the Sony SRS-T10PC Portable Speaker Set

If the speakers on your laptop are too weedy for words and you're fed up of being tethered by your headphones, the USB powered Sony SRS-T10PC portable speaker set may be just perfect for you. However, the lack of battery power or auxiliary input means their uses are limited (campers and backpackers need not apply) and more powerful mains options are available for those holidaying in a hotel or self catering apartment.

Iomega StorCenter Wireless Network Storage Review
TrustedReviews have looked at the Iomega StorCenter Wireless Network Storage.

A low price for a 1TB NAS appliance although this is reflected in the modest level of features on offer. It's easy enough to install and use but performance isn't great and why the firmware upgrade removes the wireless access point mode is beyond us.

Gigabyte GA-P35-DS4 Review
Bjorn3D take a look at the Gigabyte GA-P35-DS4.

The Intel P35 has been on the market for a few months now. It is a fantastic chip and has put a huge challenge to the NVIDIA’s 680i chipset, which also offers some great overclocking results and excellent features. Although, the top of the line Intel’s upcoming X38 (the chipset maybe released by the time you read this review), most users may not wish to spend that insane amount of money on a motherboard while they can get a similar performance at much cheaper price. That’s why choosing a motherboard based on the P35 or even the NVIDIA 680i chipset would make sense. Both of the chipsets have been on the market for awhile now and they have matured and run stable with excellent features and performance. Today, we will take a closer look at the Gigabyte’s GA-P35-DS4 (rev. 1.2) and put it against the EVGA 680i and hopefully we can determine who would be the performance king of the $150~$200 motherboard price segment.

MSI P6N SLI - Motherboard Based on NVIDIA nForce 650i SLI Chipset
Digit-Life posted a review on the MSI P6N SLI motherboard

This motherboard is a classic example of a plain ATX product. While it doesn't have top notch "goodies" like an integrated Wi-Fi adapter, two Gigabit Ethernet ports, or a bunch of SATA RAID ports, it can still serve as a good foundation for a powerful and rich computer system. One may say that MSI P6N SLI is a motherboard for those who on the one hand can afford buying more expensive products, but on the other hand are not going to overpay for features they won't use.

DisplayPort - A Look Inside
Bit-Tech published a feature looking into DisplayPort

It's not often that a new display interface is introduced, but in recent times it seems like there's been more activity than we're used to. With HDMI's move into the mainstream in 2005, talk of the new DisplayPort interface has been met with a degree of negativity from consumers -- many who question the need for yet another display interface.

I think a lot of that comes from people not understanding exactly what DisplayPort is all about, other than a reason to get more money out of consumers. DVI is just fine, right? And HDMI is DVI's replacement, isn't
it? These are a couple of the common questions I've seen crop up since
the DisplayPort 1.1 specification was approved by VESA back in April this year.

At the recent Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco, I had the chance to sit down with some of the people behind DisplayPort in order to get a better understanding how this is going to affect our industry. Over the course of this article, I'm going to discuss the DisplayPort specification, along with looking at where the new interface will fit into the market. Additionally, I'll also look at what might be a very viable alternative to DisplayPort in the long run, as well...

Apevia X-Jupiter Jr. S Type Review
OCC has published a new review of the Apevia X-Jupiter Jr. S Type

The Apevia X-Jupiter Jr. S Type is a fine mid-tower case. It has clean lines, useful features, and the 250mm fan is quiet. The inclusion of a 120mm intake fan would increase proper airflow, slightly helping direct the flow of the 250mm out towards the exhaust. The airflow seems to muddle around a bit before finding its way out the rear without a front intake fan. The tool-less chassis works well and holds the components securely. Apevia updates the look with a translucent blue plastic and it has a solid feel when engaging the locks.

Zotac Technology 256MB geForce 8600GTS Graphics Card Review
OCIA.net takes a look at the Zotac Technology 256MB geForce 8600GTS
Graphics Card in their latest review.

This will be the third video card that I have reviewed from Geeks.com that was built by a company that I haven't heard of, or that I wouldn't normally consider when purchasing computer hardware. I guess that I, being a fairly typical humanoid, am somewhat afraid of the unknown, and that especially goes for computer hardware.

A-DATA 16GB Class 6 SDHC Memory Card Review
I4U NEWS reviews the new A-DATA 16GB Class 6 SDHC Memory Card.

Today we are looking at the A-DATA 16GB SDHC memory card. This memory card is one of the highest capacity SDHC cards that you can currently buy. The first synthetic test that I performed on the A-DATA 16GB SDHC card was with HD Tach. HD Tach showed a random access time of 0.8ms, an average read time of 18.1MB/sec and an average write time of 13.9MB/s. The A-DATA 16GB SDHC card is a class 6 SDHC card and that specification guarantees a 6MB/sec minimum transfer rate making this card significantly faster.

The OneTouch 4 is an external drive with a black and brushed aluminum appearance with a nice, bright light for an evening glow, which is quite attractive.

ASUS Maximus Formula Special Edition motherboard Review
Elite Bastards posted ASUS Maximus Formula Special Edition motherboard review

The Maximus Formula Special Edition is another Intel X38-based motherboard, which comes as part of ASUS' 'Republic of Gamers' series, and thus focuses on the needs of gaming enthusiasts, cutting out features that would be unnecessary for such users to focus on performance and the hardware requirements of this sub-set of computer enthusiasts. Amongst other things, this means dropping the requirement for DDR3 memory modules, choosing instead to offer the Maximus Formula with DDR2 support which will doubtless bring a sigh of relief from many considering the current cost and performance metrics of the two technologies.
