INTRODUCTION
Hot from the production line, the new Samsung N110 netbook is the replacement for the brilliant and very successful NC10 model. It is evolutionary rather than revolutionary in terms of specification, but as the NC10 was widely regarded as being one of the best netbooks, this is no real criticism.
For the uninitiated, a netbook is a mini-notebook computer, usually with a less powerful processor, designed for very mobile users or those that need to perform basic computing tasks such as web browsing, email and word processing on a semi-regular basis.
SPECIFICATIONS
The N110 has the now familiar spec for today's netbooks.

JVC CB A79 Case Camcorder
also known as "reporter bag"
INTRO
With a weight below 180 grams this medium-sized case can be considered, without a doubt, a lightweight case. I have been looking for a case where to put my werdly-sized camera (Canon S5 IS) for a long time after the fiasco of the original canon bag in which my camera does not fit properly; so I was in a shop (Curry's) the other day and I spotted this case on a shelf with a 97p tag on it. I asked the assistant if it was indeed 97p and so it was... I imediately bought it. I later found out that the price of this bag usually varies between £10-£15, currently on amazon is around £13 so I can consider myself quite lucky and happy of the amazing deal.
OVERVIEW
So let's see some details, first of all the size: approximately 17 x 11 x 10cm. The material ...
Advantages: good picture quality, inexpensive, very quiet in operation, zoom lens, tripod mount Disadvantages: no audio inputs/speakers, takes about 90 seconds to shut down, only an SVGA projector
This is mostly a review of the Acer X110 with much reference to the Optoma ES522, now my ?spare? projector.
The Acer X110 is a budget SVGA video projector which, at the time of writing, can be had online for about £258, inlcuding VAT and overnight delivery from a firm in Birmingham called Projector Planet. I found this company easy to deal with and the goods arrived via DPD on time as promised. Acer X110 comes with a two-year return-to-base warranty and a one-year warranty on the lamp. Although the cheapest price I could find online for a replace lamp (by OSRAM) was about £135, including VAT and delivery, it is likely that this price will come down as more people buy X110s and as the model ages. By way of example, the replacement lamp (the same one) for two of Acer?s most popular projectors ? P1165 and P1265 ? now costs well under ...
