ASUS’ R50a UMPC might have been over-shadowed by the company’s all-encompassing Eee PC project, but that doesn’t mean the 5.6-inch touchscreen handheld has gone away. Spanish-language site Hispazone have been playing with the Menlow-based device, and come away both feeling that it’s a great improvement over the previous-generation R2H but still not entirely convincing.
Sling Media’s SlingCatcher has only been officially shipping since this morning, but already Sling Community have their review posted. The SlingCatcher works a little like a SlingBox in reverse, displaying content either from one of the company’s own streamers, from a computer running the supplied SlingProjector software, or from an attached storage device. The review [...]
Over at AndroidCommunity the first user review of the T-Mobile G1 smartphone has been posted.

The Sony VAIO VGC-RT150Y was described to us back in September as an “all-in-one high-definition studio”, and a look at the spec sheet indicated the company was certainly on the right track. Intel’s Core 2 Quad Q9400 processor running at up to 2.5GHz (6MB L2 cache), 8GB of RAM and 1TB of storage in dual-SATA user-accessible [...]
Vodafone and Verizon Wireless announced the BlackBerry Storm in the early hours of this morning, and already the first reviews and hands-on opinions are coming in.

It’s turning into a whole day of the ASUS S101, but we can’t quite get enough of what’s proving to be ASUS’ slickest netbook yet. After the live shots and the press shots, we now have the review; Mobile Computer Mag have the luxury netbook (an oxymoron, you’d think) on their bench, and put it through its paces compared to [...]
Dell’s partnership with carrier Vodafone UK has meant that, for the cost of a two-year data contract, users can have a “free” Inspiron Mini 9 netbook and 3G HSDPA connectivity without the hassle or bulk of an external dongle. Pocket-lint have reviewed the WWAN-integrated Mini 9, and come away with mixed feelings: having everything built [...]
As promised after last week’s unboxing gallery, we’re starting to see the first reviews of BenQ’s S6 Mobile Internet Device come through from its new Italian owners. UMPC Portal have adopted one particular Italian called Alberto, who has been giving his thoughts on how the S6 holds up as an internet device, an ebook reader [...]
The first full review of WowWee’s Rovio mobile WiFi webcam has gone up, and if you were hoping the news would be bad and save you from spending $299 on a must-have robot, think again. While we knew the tech specs were tempting - WiFi, poseable webcam, control either locally, from preset routines or via [...]
For a while, MSI’s original Wind netbook seemed set to conquer all the other netbooks. With a relatively low price, sturdy build quality and, frankly, the fact that it wasn’t one of ASUS’ interminable Eee PCs, buyers flocked to the 10-inch budget ultraportable. Even battery shortages couldn’t dampen the enthusiasm. You might think the smaller [...]
