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

Sony Reader Pocket Edition PRS-300 review
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

Sony PlayStation 3 Slim review
The PlayStation 3 Slim is the best version yet of Sony's gaming console. Its gaming and media-playback capability is little changed, and Sony's cut some features, like Linux support, but it's smaller, quieter and, crucially, cheaper. If you've been holding off on buying a PS3, this is the version to go for Read more

Nyko Wand Action Pak for Nintendo Wii review
Fans of shooting games on the Wii should definitely investigate the Nyko Wand Action Pak pistol accessory. It's more comfortable to use for extended periods of time than competing gun accessories, it's surprisingly customisable, and it's not exactly expensive either Read more

Elonex eBook review
Dispensing with the gimmickry of pretending it's also an MP3 player, the Elonex eBook boasts a sharp, crisp e-ink display and stylish, lightweight design. But, with the Amazon Kindle expected to alight on these shores before too long, is the eBook a worthwhile investment? Read more

Nintendo Wii MotionPlus review
The Wii MotionPlus adaptor promises to provide finer control with the Wii remote, and we found it delivers well with some games. Ultimately, it's up to developers to make the most of the MotionPlus, but this accessory has great potential. We'd like to see a Wii remote with it built in, though Read more

Interead Cool-er review
The Cool-er ebook reader from UK start-up Interead isn't the speediest device of its type that we've ever seen, but it does offer a great e-ink display that's on a par with the printed page for readability. Transferring books, pictures and MP3 files onto it is also easy, and it supports a wide range of formats Read more

Nvidia GeForce 3D Vision Kit review
Aiming to give your games the appearance of running in full 3D, the effect produced by the GeForce 3D Vision Kit is certainly impressive, even if it doesn't work equally well for all compatible games. We didn't find it suitable for protracted use, but it should suit casual gamers well Read more
