Advantages: Lots of channels Disadvantages: No scart cable!
The Channels:
When I first received the Grundig 1500 I was looking forward to watching the same variety of channels in my room as I can downstairs, (we have the basic Virgin Media package) however, when I set it up (I'll go through the set-up process later) I found out that I had probably even more channels than I did downstairs. Just counting them all up now I have found that I can view around 90 television and radio channels/stations, including some like BBC 3 + 4, ITV 2,3,+ 4, Film 4, and of course those shopping channels!
Setting it up:
When I first got it out of the box the immediate thing I noticed was that I had no scart cable, so I looked in the instructions and sure enough it informed me that a scart cable did not come with the box, thankfully my brother had a broken freeview box (not this model) so I was able to use ...

Advantages: Huge zoom, Focus Tracking, Easy to use Disadvantages: Bulky, A little slow, AA batteries are a bit inconvenient
The Fuji FinePix S1500 is the latest incarnation of the very successful FinePix S1000fd. It is very SLR-like in appearance and the added bulk of the battery-holder/grip does give it an assured feeling in your hands. Of course, this can be a disadvantage, and if you want a camera that you can just slip in-and-out of your pocket, then maybe a slimmer compact should be considered.
The 12x optical zoom is excellent and it equates to 33-396mm in 35mm terms - and if this isn't enough, there is a 5.7x digital zoom feature too.
The menus are friendly and easy to navigate, and there are helpful explanatory prompts that appear on thew LCD screen when the mode-dial setting is changed.
There are 14 preset scenes to choose from, each setting the camera to its optimum settings for the given scenario, but on top of this, the camera can be used ...
Advantages: cordless with answer phone, alarm and looks good Disadvantages: caller display not what it seems! no loudspeaker
BT Studio 1500 Cordless Phone with Answering Machine
The BT Studio 1500 is a silver cordless telephone with answering machine, I paid £29.74 for mine a year ago from Asda but they have come down in price since as newer models have come out.
The Base Unit
The base unit has a 2 metre cable so you need to place it within 2 metres of a mains socket and your telephone socket. BT also advise that you place it 1 metre away from other electrical appliances to avoid interference and this probably is a good idea as mine is only about 50cm away from other appliances and at first I did get some interference although it seemed to diminish over time. They also say that placing the base unit as high up as possible gives you a better signal strength. The base has two connections at the back, one for the telephone line and one ...
