We like:
Text quality has improved over the last version; very compact design makes it easy to carry with you; ink-saving modes can save you in a pinch; PictBridge- and IrDA-enabled
We don't like:
Expensive, and add-ons such as battery packs make it more so; photo print speed is slower than that of the older model
CNET UK judgement:
The Canon Pixma iP90v is the Vista-enabled version of the older Pixma iP90 and offers nearly the same print speeds and quality. It's a very useful printer if you travel a lot and need to print often, but consider the purchase carefully because it's quite expensive
Full review:
The Canon Pixma iP90v is the 2007 refresh of the Pixma iP90. Aside from support for Windows Vista and an odd reduction in photo print speed, the iP90v is essentially the same product. It even costs the same £150 as the older model. If you already have an iP90, don't worry about upgrading -- this one's not cheap, especially with the add-ons. If you simply must have a tiny inkjet, you'll be pleased with the Pixma iP90v's print speeds and quality. Continue Reading...

The HP Photosmart C309 is one of a new breed of machines that can be controlled via an integrated touchscreen display, but that doesn't mean it's any good
