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

Logitech Driving Force Wireless review
The key selling point of the Driving Force Wireless steering-wheel controller for the PlayStation 2 and 3 is its convenience factor. It's straightforward to set up and put away, and, besides a power cord, there are no wires involved. Hard-core virtual racers might, however, prefer the performance of other Logitech wheels Read more

Nintendo DSi review
The DSi offers bigger screens and better audio quality than its predecessor, the DS Lite, as well an improved menu system, twin cameras and audio-playback capability. Battery life has fallen and more could have been made of some of its features, but the DSi is a great games console for those who don't already own a Lite Read more

Endless Ideas BeBook review
Relatively compact and lightweight, the BeBook has an excellent screen that's almost as easy on the eye as a real book. A plasticky design and sluggish menu system don't do the device any favours, but compensation comes in the form of exceptional battery life, and good font and file-format support Read more

Sony PlayStation 3 (80GB) review
Still the best value Blu-ray player on the market, the PlayStation has had a hard-drive upgrade to 80GB -- plenty of space to store downloaded games, demos and media. With rapidly improving online services and exclusive games line-up, the PS3 is better than ever Read more

Sony PSP 3000 review
If you're looking for a sturdy portable device that offers great graphics, solid multimedia performance and more sophisticated games than the Nintendo DS Lite -- and a deeper game library than the Apple iPhone or iPod touch -- the PSP is a worthwhile choice Read more

Sony Reader PRS-505 review
Sony's newly released Reader PRS-505 trumps the competiting ebook readers, if you ask us. Its design is more attractive and it's significantly cheaper than its rivals. It's also rather pleasant to use, with a 600x800-pixel resolution e-ink display that simply doesn't feel like a screen Read more

Alertme review
The Alertme system is designed to tell you if your home is being broken into. With sensors set up around your home, it then texts you or a neighbour if they pick anything up while you're out. But beware, it's pricey at £399 plus subscription fee, and there are some pretty serious limitations Read more
