WIRELESS BATTERY PACKS!!!

Advantages: WILL SAVE YOU MONEY!!!
Disadvantages: COST!!!

...built into the controller. So microsoft came up with the idea of... NUCLEAR POWER CONTROLLERS. But then they probably realised this would be to dangerous and powerful so they just settled for double "A" batterys. : ) The batterys will last for around 12 - 20 continuous hours depending on the type you use, but changing batterys almost every day gets very annoying, and expensive. If you have rechargable batterys you will save money instead of always throwing batterys way but why wait for batterys to recharge? Microsoft then came up with the idea of the battery pack. On a full charge it will last around 24 hours of gaming and can be on charge while in use! It will add a small amound of extra weight to the controller but not so that you would notice. This is all good! you can now have a charging pack so you no longer need to buy batterys...

MadCatz Wii Fit Battery Pack

Advantages: easy to use, great value for money, can be used during gameplay, USB connection
Disadvantages: cannot be charged from the mains

... MadCatz Wii Fit Battery Pack After months of searching we finally managed to get hold of a Nintendo Wii Fit board back in July which was hugely popular with the whole family and used almost every second that the house was occupied. For those who may be unfamiliar with the Nintendo Wii and the Wii fit balance board I will explain these briefly first. The Wii is a games console which uses a handheld remote for interactive play (simulating tennis etc). The Wii fit balance board is a rectangular board which the user stands on and it links up wirelessly to the Wii and is used to improve health through balance games, muscle and yoga poses and aerobic exercise games. The Wii fit balance board measures and monitors weight, centre of gravity etc and feeds this back wirelessly to the Wii console plugged into your television. Due...

Canon Quality

Advantages: Same Canon quality we have come to expect, great ISO capabilities.
Disadvantages: Buttons can get fiddly in the cold.

... Canon 500D Introduction Canons range of cameras is very impressive. Everyone can be accommodated for, there really is something for everyone. Camera Itself First off, the camera. The sensor on this model has a larger pixel count than many of its rivals and cheaper models in the range. The 15.1 megapixels on offer is more than enough for the market it is aimed at, these images will easily be blown up above A3 and still retain most of the detail. The new addition to this camera that sets it apart from the older models is the Full 1080p movies. Many photographers don?t like this new mode but if you don?t, then simply don?t use it. Having the functionality of a high quality video camera on family holidays and such will be welcomed by the enthusiast market at which this is aimed toward. One problem I found...

360 Rechargeable Battery

Advantages: battery life
Disadvantages: cost

...Here it is, the solution to the hassle of constantly swapping out batteries from the xbox 360 controller's battery pack. This product will definitely save you money as you'll be spending much less on AA batteries especially if you play your 360 a lot. This battery pack however is absolutely useless without the recharging chord or recharging dock. The rechargeable battery pack is very convenient but if you're playing with the controller while it's recharging the controller becomes a wired controller for a couple hours which is not necessarily a bad thing. Also I feel the price for this product is a little steep but I guess it does save you money in the long run. The batteries do last for a long time and I rarely recharge my batteries. This product is a must buy for hardcore 360 owners but for the casual gamer who only plays every...

Canon Powershot SX200 IS

Advantages: Lots of zoom, lots of pixels, sturdy
Disadvantages: No internal memory, flash pops up whether you want it to or not

...I bought this camera recently as I purchased a Canon EOS1000D DSLR and I wanted a compact digital with a large zoom for the times when I didn't feel like lugging the DSLR and all it's accessories around with me. I'd looked around at other models, and I know that there are many other cameras that offer a much higher zoom, but I finally settled on this one for a number of reasons. a) 12 million pixels. This is more than I'll probably ever need as it's very rare that I print anything above 8x10 but it was an upgrade on my previous digital compact. b) 12x optical zoom. This is more than adequate for general photography, any more and I think you do probably need a tripod. c) NB-5L Li-Ion Battery. This is just a personal preference but I prefer the rechargeable Li-Ion batteries. It's fairly cheap to buy a couple of spares and I...

Review of Canon PowerShot SX200 IS

Canon Powershot - Above Average

Advantages: Nice for a small camera, Good settings, Nice overall camera
Disadvantages: Noise @ Low light, Batterys recognised as empty

...batteries, very standardized and easy to change, i believe it can take both XD and SD i am sure it will hold up to a 4GB SD Canon have slapped quite a price tag on it, and the price doesent seem to budge, although it is now an obsolete camera its 8MP sensor is the most any none professional will ever need and it is worth paying 100 - 120 pounds for, after a while using this camera i have found flaws, without using the "battery discharge" setting to discharge the batteries it can confuse the camera, occasionally a new set of batteries will be recognize as empty this is a problem which is pointed out in the manual quite clearly and batteries should be well discharged, personally i loved this camera and for a point and shoot its great,...

Review of Canon PowerShot A590 IS

Upgrade to a vibrating phone cheaply

Advantages: Feel your phone whenever you are
Disadvantages: It can shoot your phone across a hard surface and does make a bit of a noise.

...I had, which was a slim line one, thinner than the standard 5110/6100 battery. It was also Li-Ion which meant I did not have to run it down every time I wanted to charge it. The battery cost £15 plus delivery, sorry can not remember the online shop but it was based in America. But I have found www.cellsavers.co.uk do them for £13.99 plus delivery is free at the moment....

Review of Nokia 5110/6110 Li-Ion vibrating Battery

A slightly less explosive Canon.

Advantages: Typically good Canon images.
Disadvantages: Poor flash and feels a bit flimsy.

...DSLR from Canon, would I recommend it? Well if you are desperate to have a Canon because of their reputation then yes I would recommend it but if money is not too much of an option then I would recommend you go for the 450D instead, if you are open to any make and model then I would recommend you forget about this in favour of the Sony A200 which will perform as well as this and even outperform it in places for around £100 less of an outlay. This Canon is good enough to keep up Canons good name but it is not in my opinion good enough to enhance it, it has what you would expect from a Canon including excellent battery life and great image production but it does not offer anything new or exciting. A decent entry level camera that is a bit overpriced in my opinion and lacks a bit of inspiration, produces great images but might not have...

Review of Canon Digital IXUS 65

Nice in principle, crap in practice

Advantages: Light, makes the phone a lot better physically
Disadvantages: Noisy vibration, battery life is rubbish

...I saw this battery at a computer fair, and i thought it would make a nice addition to my 5110. I picked it up, and on feeling it's weight, had to buy it. Got it home, charged it up and rang it from my home phone. On discreet, the vibration is noisier than the phone on 'personal' tones. I was appalled as to how noisy it was. i was not to be put off by its loudness, however, so i thought the battery life may be a lot better than the standard NiMH cell. Again, i was proved wrong by this awful accessory as the battery life is about 2 days with this battery: the standard 1 is about 5 days to 1 week. So, all in aleft with is a short-life, noisy-on-silent phone. it does have one saving grace: my phone is now lighter than the 3210. Kiss my ass 3210 owners !!!!...
