Taxan U5 Series 132

Advantages: Lightweight, easy to use
Disadvantages: Difficult to find

...up the laptop and you are away. There are adjustable feet to allow you to adjust the angle and the lens cover is attached by a handy cord so that you won't get home and then find you left it on a table somewhere or, worse still, drop it and then step on it during your presentation! Quite apart from using a digital projector for presentations they are also capable of projecting images from your TV or computer. This mean that you can enjoy a large screen projection of your favourite TV programmes or DVDs on to a wall anywhere. Ideal if you want to have your friends around to enjoy an important match or favourite film - just like being in the cinema! Overall I am pleased with my purchase of the Plus U5-111. It has been problem free in use and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a simple, straightforward, lightweight... Read review

Advantages: Good, clear quality, very sharp
Disadvantages: lower model numbers are unreliable

...Having used a range of Taxan monitors at work, I have noticed that they are an ok buy. I have used a variety of differet models,(the 410, 530, 710) I have found that the lower number models, i.e. the 410, seem to go blurry after a while.

Advantages: excellent tools for the busy businessman and entrepreneur or for students
Disadvantages: Monochromatic screen

...Psion has in its Series 5 of palmtops an excellent range of products. There are basically three different types of Psion Series 5 palmtops (when you exclude the simpler REVOs), the original granite black coloured model, the special edition metallic green one and the more recent 5MX. There are very few differences other than aesthetical from the black to the green model; they share the same hardware specifications although the attractive green special edition did come with a brown leather case included. The 5MX comes with 16Mb as opposed to the 8Mb in-built EPROM memory the original models are equipped with. Psion palmtops are excellent tools for the busy businessman and entrepreneur or for students who cannot afford a computer. It comes with software within its EPOC operating system - word processing, spreadsheet, agenda, etc. If... Read review
