Navigon, TomTom and others are doing their best to make the on-screen view of your GPS look as much as possible as real-life, but if you really want realism why not just look outside? That’s the approach Blaupunkt are taking with their new Travel Pilot systems: a video camera on the back of the GPS [...]
Logitech have introduced the Squeezebox Boom, in effect the company’s Squeezebox network music player with built-in amplification and speakers. Setup is straightforward - plug into the mains, enter your WiFi password - and then you have the pleasure of bi-amped 3-inch woofers and 3/4-inch tweeters (with a 24-bit Burr Brown D/A converter behind the scenes) to enjoy [...]
A clutch of new digital photo frames from Samsung today, and the company gets partial-kudos for giving at least some of them WiFi. Two 8-inch 800 x 600 frames, the SPF-85H and SPF-85V, and two 10-inch 1024 x 600 frames, the SPF-105P and SPF-105V, are available, although the ‘V’ versions have WiFi b/g. Each can load [...]

Intended to offer iPhone users a way to tether their handsets, via WiFi, to their laptops (for use as an external modem), the program initially went on sale through the Apple [...]
TRENDnet have begun shipping their 300Mbps Dual Band Wireless N Gigabit Router, the TEW-672GR. Capable of using either the 2.4GHz or 5GHz bands, the TEW-672GR also has four gigabit ethernet ports and a “double firewall” using both Network Address Translation (NAT) and Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) protocols.
How much praise does a manufacturer want for a aux-in socket? Read through either the marketing for a new car, or a car review, and there’s generally an unusually large amount of interest heaped on the stereo having an input for your PMP. Contrast that, say, with one of our own reviews - a notebook, [...]
