The crowded netbook market gets a new leader in the Samsung N110

Advantages: Well designed keyboard, fantastic screen and long battery life.
Disadvantages: Price creeping up, No N wireless, glossy lid picks up finger marks easily.

...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. * Intel Atom N270 at 1.6ghz with 1gb of memory (maximum is 2gb) * 160gb hard disk * 10.1" screen at 1024x600 pixel resolution, 128mb of graphics memory * Integrated 1.3mp webcam, b/g wireless and Bluetooth...

Review of Samsung N110

Ixus 110 - a great point and shoot camera but nothing more.

Advantages: Range of features, quality of pictures in night time mode.
Disadvantages: Quality of pictures in cloudy weather and low light,

...110. Increasing the ISO to decrease the shutter speed is, in my opinion, the least effect way of preventing motion blur. Images taken where this feature has been activated were considerably 'noisier' than images taken without, which were otherwise crisp and clear. *The HD shooting mode was brilliant. The HDMI port built in makes it easy to hook up to your HDTV or PC. Everything was easy to use here and video quality was very impressive. *The widescreen lense at 28mm is by no means the widest lense available on a compact, but is considerably better than most compact lenses and produces great pictures in most situations. *The Ixus 110's rechargeable battery lasted about 150 shots with heavy zooming, making Canon's statement of 200 reasonable. The bad points * Image quality really does suffer in cloudy weather and low light...

Canon Powershot SX110 IS

Advantages: Lots of features
Disadvantages: Quite expensive

...Design The Canon Powershot SX110 IS is a pretty big camera compared to some on the market. It is around 11cm by 7cm and feels quite large in your hands, although this does make it feel sturdy and strongly built. Despite the size, it fits into your hands rather smoothly and is fairly comfortable to hold. It weighs in at around 300g which is quite heavy but once again makes it feel strong. It is too large to keep it comfortably in your pocket and so the wrist strap comes in handy. (A neck strap would be a nice addition though). I was told you can also purchase a pouch for it to clip on to your belt. You can get to the buttons, pop up flash light and battery space easily and they are all well made and strong. The battery space holds two AA battery's and they are easy to change compared to some cameras which are fiddly or the battery...

Fuji FinePix S1500. Descendant of the S1000fd

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...

Samsung SGH M110 : solid but slow.

Advantages: Dust proof, Robust.
Disadvantages: Cumbersome functionality.

... Samsung "Solid" SGH M110 good points *One thing I like about this phone is the fine grill over the speaker. This keeps dust out, I'd previously had problems in my line of work with metal dust sticking to the magnet in the speaker, resulting in severe static and frequent repairs. *The robust rubbery body gives it a solid look and feel. *No complaints on the battery life, FM radio uses a bit of juice though. *Quite satisfied with the camera, good quality photos. *I found the Bluetooth very useful for sending pictures without the need for an expensive USB cable. *A lot cheaper than similar robust phones like the JCB. *Good battery life. On the down side *Sending an SMS is quite a drawn out process, requires you to go through too many submenus. When I've finished texting and press the "Back" button to clear the screen it...

Rangemaster toledo 110 cooker

Advantages: Looks really smart and efficient
Disadvantages: None that spring to mind

...We bought a rangemaster toledo 110 cooker for our new kitchen earlier this year. We decided on the colour of silver rather than stainless steal as this is easier to clean and wipe. The double oven is brilliant and practical. One is fan assisted so is really fast the other is just conventional. They are both large and can easily cook Christmas dinner for a family of 14. Both have large windows on the doors which is brilliant for checking on foods. Built in oven lights too. It also has a separate built in grill. If you need to grill something small you just switch on half the grill - how cool is that? The built in hob on top is lovely. We have electric so naturally have a ceramic hob. This too is easy to clean. There are 6 halogen rings. Two of which you can half on or full on. Beware of scratches though on the g;ass hob. All in all...

SDR S26

Advantages: Size, quality, reputation, ease of use. truly pocket size
Disadvantages: none

...Having been stuck with a busted camcorder on the morning on an important family visit, I dashed to a major electrical store to source a replacement, stumbled across this camera, researched the others on display and chose the S26 for ease of use, merit for the make (I bought Lumix TZ5 and have been really pleased with it, quality, capabilities etc, great lens) and general feel for the camera. in my opinion, X70 zoom works very well, resolution excellent for an "older" user and their "junior" assistants. I think that Transfer speed is not rapid, but "so what" in a camera at this price point. Very happy to recommend for general everyday trouble free use. BUT buy it on line for £60 less than the big stores and be even more satisfied that I am Ron...
