...Samsung R125 DVD Recorder with HDMI Out - I have had this recorder for around 8 months now. I initially purchased it as it was one of the first DVD Recorders I found with a HDMI 1080i Output. After having it for 8 months I can honestly say I do not regret purchasing this piece of equipment. I currently run my Freeview PVR through this device and am very impressed at how well it turns normal bog standard video into good looking high definition. Don't misunderstand me it wont work miracles, but I can certainly say I can see a difference. Overall I am very impressed with this piece of kit and the main advantages are: 1) The quality of High Def is something I would not want to go back from. It may not be quite as standard across the board as it could be, but buying a device without it would in my opinion be a mistake. 2... Read review

...Having recently had a breakdown on my Samsung U3 I opted for the K3 instead. So far I have to say I made the right decision. INTRO The first thing that you notice about the K3 is how cool it looks. I spent weeks looking at MP3 players and was comparing them all to the IPOD Nano and the K3 for me was the one to beat it. I paid £119 for my unit which compared to £129 for the same Nano was a bargain bearing in mind the K3 has more features. The K3 comes in a small sleek black box, but beware, once you take it out its impossible to put back in, but hey… WHAT YOU GET Along with the MP3 player you don't get huge amounts. Software CD, USB cable……..sorry but that's it…..oh and the earphones, quiteimportant that one WHAT YOU DON'T GET You don't get a mains adaptor / charger, that's not a huge problem and a vast number of players don...
