The ultraportable MacBook some were hoping for didn’t arrive at WWDC, so it seems a good time to look at options for the mobile user who prizes portability above all else. Fujitsu Siemens’ P1610, despite its age - it was announced in November last year - remains one of the most coveted mini notebooks; [...]

With the comment fires raging at Microsoft’s claim to have sold a million Zunes in less than six months, perhaps it’s a good time to look at another of Apple’s competitors, and one which provokes a little less bile. Samsung has already shown itself to be capable of taking on the iPod Nano in [...]

Here in the UK Sir Clive, the founder of Sinclair, became something of a figure of fun after the failure of his C5 personal transportation [...]

As the high-end multimedia and smartphone market hots up, it’s sometimes easy to forget that there exists a whole range of consumer-range handsets for those who don’t want or need touchscreens, DVD-quality video recording and push-email. And looking at the budget options now, it’s interesting to see how many of the advanced features that [...]
The Helio Ocean is well covered on SlashGear, so everyone should be familiar with its features as well as what it’s capable of. In case you need to get up to speed, take a look at this page then you can come back to this article and understand why I’m so excited about the [...]
Kingston is one of the major PC memory makers and they’ve been catering to the enthusiast market for some time now with their HyperX lineup. Recently I received a pair of HyperX PC9600 (KHX9600D2K2/2G)sticks that Kingston claim are capable of running at 1.2Ghz.
