Bose SoundDock Digital Music System Review

Advantages: Superb Sound, Very Loud, Ideal for Ipods
Disadvantages: not go to travel with, Extremely Expensive

...Bose SoundDock Digital Music System I happened to get this as a gift and it turned out to be quiet interesting Summary: This dock is used mainly for ipod and allows you to connet mp3 players to it and listen to high quality music via speakers. It is idle for homes and small gatherings, although I would not run a party off these. Pros: This system has terrific sound and can go very load despite its relative small size. As with almost all Bose speakers the quality is amazing, so long as the source you are playing it from is high quality it will allow the speakers to each its potential. I have a surround sound Bose set up in one of my rooms but now prefer to use this product as it is very simple to operate. Just plug the mp3 player in and press play and your set. Can't get much simpler. It also runs off a wall...

Review of Bose SoundDock Digital Music System

The Start of The Digital Era...

Advantages: Great Value, Good Features, Fantastic Quality Sound
Disadvantages: Silly Placement of the Mains Plug At The Back

...I have always been a fan of the radio and although I have quite specific music tastes, I enjoy having the variety and general natter of a radio on in the background, especially to reduce boredom or to make a place seem a little more alive when your home alone. The Pure One Digital DAB Radio is the first and only DAB radio I have owned, you?ve got to move with the times right? I had been thinking about purchasing one for a while after hearing good things about this little radio and have now been enjoying it for about 6 months. The Pure One comes in a choice of 3 colours; black, pink and white. I would have loved to have brought the pink one as it?s a cute pastel colour, but opted for the funky and modern white, mainly due to the fact I was planning on using the radio in my office and most of my colleagues already think I?m a bit OTT...

Canon IXUS 95 IS: The best amateur digital camera on the market

Advantages: Very high quality pictures for both print and web work.
Disadvantages: The bundled software that comes with it has a very Fisherprice feel about it.

...After reading many reviews on Amazon and amateur camera sites about the different types of hobbyist level digital cameras, I decided to buy one of these. The camera itself has a metal casing and so has a sleek feel and look to it. It's very light weight and compact making it very easy to carry around in a handbag or while, (and most importantly) taking pictures! I found that it took only 5 - 10 minutes to get the camera working from out of the box. It was so simple, I didn't take that much notice of the manual. When starting up the camera, it isn't slow like they digital cameras of yesteryear. Its ability to capture anything in an instant is one of it's many advantages. The photos it and you produce are very high quality, as I found out the other day when I had some printed off at home. The only downside is the bundled software...

Review of Canon Digital IXUS 95 IS

  DVD Player that can play DivX .avi files and more!

Advantages: Plays DivX AVI and MPEG files, Supports lots of formats, Looks good, Karaoke,
Disadvantages: DivX 3.11, 4.02 plays slightly slanted, cheap plasticy remote, Doesn't play some NTSC encoded files

...I've wanted a DVD player that was capable of playing DivX files for a while because of all my anime and por...errr....other video files..., but the players cost more than normal DVD players so resisted for a while. I've seen brands such as KISS and Yamada but later came across this DK Digital DVD-500 DivX DVD player after the prices have dropped. It only cost £41.98 (61.52 Euros) from SVP Communications (AKA Blank Disc Shop). -= The Player =- The player looks sleek with a black and silver design. Black at the front with silver at the top and bottom curving in towards each other at the middle, which I think looks really good. The player itself looks quite durable and the tray isn't flimsy like some I've seen. The LCD display shows the numbers in green and other details such as TRK, DVD, etc in red. I think it's very easy to read...

Here Beginneth My Digital Radio Revolution

Advantages: Small-form and easy operation
Disadvantages: Mains only unless you purchase the expensive battery pack

...see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DigitalAudioBroadcasting To check DAB is available at your postcode http://www.bbc.co.uk/reception/digitalradio/dab.shtml To check DAB stations are your postcode http://www.ukdigitalradio.com/ ~~~ PURE ONE MINI ~~~ My main requirement with a DAB radio was to be able to play radio but for it to also look aesthetically pleasing. When I was wandering around the electronics department to gauge the type of products on display I noticed the shelves were primarily lined with the following brands: - Pure - Roberts - Sony And I noticed that the Pure models were more abundant than the other brands. I counted nearly 3 times as many Pure DAB radios than the next brand. They also have some very eye-catching designs. The Pure models are available in simple models or the retro look. I was...

Dead as a Doornail

Advantages: Exciting and surprising novel
Disadvantages: too many non-human types

...Background: A few weeks ago I read the first book written by Charlaine Harris, 'Dead until Dark'. Following this I was keen to try another one from her, featuring Sookie Stackhouse as the heroine. So when I saw this one in my local charity shop I snapped it up. About the author: Charlaine Harris was born in Tunica in Mississippi on the 25th November 1951. Having spent her early years in employment as a Typesetter for Federal Express, she decided to try her hand at her big passion writing. Since then she has written 30 books of which eight have featured Sookie Stackhouse as her lead character. This novel I'm reviewing is the fifth in the series. Synopsis of the book: Sookie Stackhouse works as a Cocktail Waitress when she's not get into trouble. She is different from most as she is telepathic and can read other people...

Essexgirl Does Digital

Advantages: Comparative value for money, easy to use
Disadvantages: Heavy, not as attractive as other models, no alarm function

...WHAT IS DAB? DAB stands for Digital Audio Broadcasting and it is basically a way to hear more radio stations and to hear them interference free, without hiss and crackle. How good you hear it depends on the number of transmitters in your area and currently only 85% of the population are covered. You also don't have a fiddly dial to twiddle to try and find the right frequency, you select a station by name by pressing a few buttons and it finds it automatically for you. WHY DO I WANT ONE? I had been dithering in the purchase of a digital radio for some time. My ex had one that was permanently tuned to TalkSport in the kitchen. If I wanted to listen to something else I need to use the stereo FM radio and fiddle with the aerial which would only grant me reception if I held it in the air whilst balancing on my left leg...

Review of Pure Digital ELAN

Enthusing about Digital Fusion

Advantages: Quick service, well packed parcel, nice prices
Disadvantages: I can't think of any

...I do a lot of online shopping for the same reasons as most other people - price, convenience, choice and so on. When my new laptop began to overheat due to excessive gaming (!!!) I discovered it was possible to buy laptop cooling pads (more on that coming soon...no, really, I promise:). Now, I was impatient to get back to the gaming, and had a browse on several sites for the said cooling products with the intention of popping out to a shop beginning with C that is located not far from me, but then I noticed the prices they were charging - two to three times as much as non-high street venues. It was at this point that I found Digital Fusion, after using a popular search engine which I won't discuss here ;). Digital Fusion is an online computer store, selling everything you would expect from such a place. The categories of goods you...

Digital Vinci Code?

Advantages: Nicely structured storyline, compelling narrative, at times very exciting, thoroughly gripping
Disadvantages: Lead characters perhaps a little bland, not quite as good as The Da Vinci Code, some may be disinterested by the technical-talk

...In a remarkably short period of time, Dan Brown has emerged as one of the biggest and most-promising authors in the modern popular-fiction bracket. His Christian-bating best-seller The Da Vinci Code recently topped 7,500,000 sales worldwide and such is the weight of its popularity, it has managed to drag all of Brown?s previous novels (Digital Fortress among them) to the upper echelons of the sales charts. The Da Vinci Code may not have been perfect, but as a cryptic thriller it was, for the most part, eminently readable and very enjoyable. Digital Fortress, published five years earlier in 1998, was next on my reading list and it seems little attempt has been made to disguise the fact that it is riding high on the success of another book ? somewhat bizarrely, the back cover is plastered with praise for The Da Vinci Code, and not...

Review of Digital Fortress - Dan Brown

As Clear As Mud

Advantages: gives results in under 1 minute, easy to read the test
Disadvantages: depends on what outcome you are hoping for

...* Please note that Ciao have placed this in the Clearblue Digital section and says that this is where it should be placed, even though the review is about Lloyd's Pharmacy One Minute Pregnancy Test* I recently had a viral infection which made me very ill and wiped me out for almost a week. One of the main symptoms I suffered was vomiting and the feeling of nausea at the sight and smell of food. I am generally not an ill person, so when my Mum and Sister kept on at me and suggesting that I "must be pregnant" as I was sick; they managed to plant a tiny seed of doubt in my mind! So, my Family succeeded in panicking me and I was starting to feel worried. Why? Because I have a 13 month old Son (who doesn't and has never slept through at night!), so there is no way that I am planning Baby No2 so soon. It wouldn't have been the end...
