Nintendo DSi XL review

The DSi XL is a super-sized version of the DSi, with significantly larger screens. It's a shame that the two cameras haven't received a resolution boost and that the internal storage hasn't been increased, but the big screens do come in handy and the device's battery life is outstanding Read more

AlertMe Energy review

The AlertMe Energy system allows you to monitor your home's energy use via a PC or smart phone. It's very easy to set up and the online interface for viewing your energy consumption is excellent. It might be a while before you claw back your investment through energy-bill savings though Read more

The Sound Blaster World of Warcraft Wireless Headset is very expensive but packs in some features that will undoubtedly appeal to hardcore fans of the role-playing game. Its glowing earcups, decent sound quality and voice-modifying capability all make for a more immersive experience Read more

Powermat Portable Mat review

If you overlook the cable that supplies the mat itself with power, then the Portable Mat can be regarded as capable of charging up to three mobile devices wirelessly. We found the system worked well, and the fact that it folds up for greater portability and easier storage is a pleasing bonus Read more

Powermat Home & Office Mat review

The Home & Office Mat can charge up to three mobile devices wirelessly, as long as you don't count the cable that supplies the mat itself with power. It's an innovative technology and, in our experience, it generally works well, so this mat might be worth buying if you can convince yourself that you actually need it Read more

ViewSonic VEB612 review

The VEB612 ebook reader is attractively styled, sufficiently compact so that it's comfortable to hold, and light enough so that it won't push you over the hand-luggage limit when you're off on holiday. Its software could be better, but there are far worse ways to read a digital book Read more

iriver Story review

The Story is packed with features, such as its voice-recording capability and Qwerty keyboard, but many potential purchasers of an ebook reader are likely to find them irrelevant. Fortunately, its lengthy battery life, clear screen and excellent file-format support mean this Story has a happy ending Read more

Dispensing with bells and whistles, the Reader Pocket Edition PRS-300 ebook reader does one job and does it well. It's extremely easy to read text on its e-ink display, it's attractive and pocketable, and it's very simple to use. Overall, we think it's the best ebook reader currently on the UK market Read more

Sony Reader Touch Edition PRS-600 review

The Reader Touch Edition PRS-600 is a decent ebook reader with some intriguing capabilities, such as its touchscreen, which not only lets you turn pages with a swipe of a finger but also allows you to make annotations. It's not as simple to use as Amazon's Kindle, but it offers much more freedom when it comes to finding books Read more

Amazon Kindle (international version) review

Finally available in the UK, the Kindle ebook reader is a smashing piece of kit. Its e-ink display closely resembles a printed page and poses little risk of eyestrain, it's undeniably well-designed, and it couldn't be easier to download ebooks. Amazon's digital bookstore could do with some work, though Read more
