Advantages: fairly cheap entry price
Disadvantages: fairly expensive drink price

...Well seeing as I have just got back from Dublin the fair city, I felt that I should write about it while I can remember. I have been to Dublin a few times now and have never been disappointed. The atmosphere, the people, the craic in general is all good but this was the first time I had been to the Temple Bar music centre, and will definately not be the last. This is a club which is open at weekens. When you first go into the bar it sort of looks like what I ramember my and indeed any student union to look like. In other words you get sevred in plastic cups and the place is dark, a little busy and loud in the dancefloor. However that is exactly what I liked about it. The stafff were pleasant and although it did take quite a while to get served I will put this down to being busy. The drinks were a little pricy but I felt that this...

Review of Temple Bar Music Centre

"WACS7000" 80Gb WiFi music centre and stations

Advantages: Looks and sounds fantasic!
Disadvantages: Can only have 4 music stations attached

...Now this is one serious bit of kit if you are a music lover! This system can play your CDs and can also save them on its built in 80GB hard drive! Thats about 1500 albums and over 20,000 songs .You basicly place the base station in your main room and then you can add 4 seperate music stations around your home. You can then listen to music in any of the rooms you have a station that you have saved on the base system, and this is all wirless! The system also has a USB port so you can inport and export MP3 files. The base has 2x40 watt speakers and station is 2x10 watt speakers, Treble and bass control. Integrated sub-woofer. There is also a alarm clock that now can be intergrated with this system so you can have a wake up call with your best tunes and this is wirless too. The system sounds absolutey fantastic and looks great, you can...

Review of Philips WACS7000

Mixed review

Advantages: Specific contacts can be displayed on front screen
Disadvantages: Texting can be hard to get the hand of

...I think that the Nokia XpressMusic phone is generally a good phone. Although like most phones there are small aspects which could be improved on such as the use of the pen. I first got this phone around 4 months ago when I upgraded my contract, I was sceptical at first because it was the first fully touch operated screen Nokia have produced. Hence I brought the phone with the 10 day trial in mind. To my suprise I did not have to use this as the phone seemed to work well. Comparisons have been made between the IPhone and the XpressMusic phone, however at the end of the day Nokia can never produce an as good music centre as Apple so in my opinion it does not put a scratch on the capability and ease of use as the Iphone. In contrast to what I just said the music system on the XpressMusic is still very good, with an 8GB storage it...

Review of Nokia 5800 XpressMusic

iPhone - uPhone - wiiPhone

Advantages: Apps are addictive
Disadvantages: MT must provoke a security package

...the brand, not for any extra curriculum criteria's that may transcend and change your life forever. Still in its early stages the WMT Windows Media Technology's portable software accustomed to the iPhone, this easy to use system is the future within portable smart-phones. Apples think-tank policy was to infiltrate the interface similar to a PC operating system. The wheels are in motion for the MT to build up speed and move into the BlueTooth stroke WAP stroke GPS trend. The eventual use of file sharing on a mobile is close to a deal as the user is able to customize applications at a whim. The storage is just about adequate if it were a MP3 portable player, so at 8GB it is wanting somewhat, especially if you end up using the Smart-Phone as a music centre. You must remember that the apps also will swiftly take up large slices of internal...

Review of Apple iPhone 3G

Classic ipod for a classy person

Advantages: Easy, stylish, good sound, good sofware, lots of space
Disadvantages: battery is attached, fragile screen

...for you. Overall i think that itunes is an extrmely useful software device and would highly recommend it to anyone. As with any product there're flaws and in my opinon i think that when your battery runs outs compeletly and wont charge anymore or if it gets broken then you must pay either for a new ipod itself or pay a fairly large sum to replace it, this i think could be reviews by apple. From my point of view another flaw in this product is that the screen can be fragile and break from the inside but this does not effect the music however if it is so bad where you can't see clearly you will have to replace your ipod. Overall i would say that is the music centre for anyone who is has style....

Review of Apple iPod classic 120 GB

All round great item for travel

Advantages: Great for hols
Disadvantages: Can be abit heavy thats what the partners for

...We bought this when my daughter was a week old and needed it for a travel down to wales to visit the in-laws with new baby so thought this would be great for changing and play time and sleeping. This is Suitable from birth to around 3 years this is when they be more likely to say I am not going in that but we dont intend to use this that long was just for when she is getting around the house and under our feet. Full size bassinet is a perfect crib for your newborn and hreat for settling them to sleep too as bassinet mattress vibrates gently (on a timer) to soothe your baby to sleep, Nightlight and music centre on a timer too. As your baby grows, take out the bassinet and you have an easy to use travel cot as we said we bought this for when our daughter was 1 week old and used the bassinet once and did the job. 60 seconds...

Review of Graco Travel Cot

A Banging Hi-Fi

Advantages: Excellent sound Quality, Looks
Disadvantages: Bit tricky to get the hang of

...I looked for ages for a powerfull music centre for about 150 quid and i kept coming back to this one.The fact is that with two 75 watt speakers and an excellent digital amp built in it will actually blow your windows, its so loud. Whats even better is at high volumes the sound doesnt become distorted at all due to the 2 way speaker with kevlar subs in each!!! The system alltogether looks very cool with the wood effect speakers and sleek silver system it would look good any where in the home. There are about a million different features on this system, such as alarm clock, sleep, bass an treble controls. Also the chance to record a specific radio program allthough i have never quite worked out how to do it yet, so that is one of the downsides of it. But all of the components are built to sony's usual quality so none of it will fall...

Review of Sony CMT-CPX 11

Sony 6Gb NWA1000 MP3 Player

Advantages: Trusted brand, durable quality product
Disadvantages: Software can be a pain to use.

...The Sony Walkman NW-A1000 6Gb MP3 player is very user friendly. It has more than enough space to store most of the music you would need for the car or gym. As Sony were the original personal music centre creators, its kind of ironic that they have made a good, usable music player. The player itself is more blue in colour rather than violet (although the earphones definately look violet - I've replaced them for other Sony earphones) You need Sonic stage software rather than the 'Connect' software that it comes with, this can sometimes struggle to convert MP3s onto the player which is a pain. It means that on occasion, because the mp3 format isn't recognised (God Knows Why?) you need to burn the files onto a CD, then import the CD onto the music library for placing onto the MP3 Player. I've not had any issues with the device...

Review of Sony Walkman NW-A1000 6 GB

Surrey University

Advantages: Close to London but still cheap
Disadvantages: Everywhere you walk you are on a hill

...Surrey University (or UNIS as it wants to be know these days) has basically something for everyone. Firstly, the beer is fairly cheap, the newly refurbished union is always welcoming and the increasingly lively town of Guildford is only a ten minute walk away. You are only five minutes walk away from the mainline train station which has fast services to London. But walk into the green parkland part of the campus and you find peace and quiet. There is also the two sports centres with cricket, rugby, hockey and football pitches and the music centre, with practice rooms and it's choirs and bands. Finally, the accomodation is cheap and plentiful for those that do not wish to live on campus....

Review of Surrey University, Guildford

Fantastic Little (But Powerful) Phone!

Advantages: Looks Good, Screen Colour/Sharpness Great, Camera Good, GPS Great.
Disadvantages: No Touchscreen Or Qwerty Keypad, Internet Browser Could Be Better.

...a central directional pad - much the same as my N70, a menu shortcut button, a music centre shortcut button, call, end call, clear button and a couple of other shortcut buttons that can be assigned to whatever shortcut you want them to. There is also a lesser quality camera for video calling, and a button with a pencil on, which I am not sure of what it is for just yet. The back of the phone there is a 5mp camera, which has Carl Zeiss Optics, a flash facility and a shutter that keeps the lens safe (and also automatically activates camera mode when opened and closes it, then locks keypad when closed). Also on the back is the opening to get to the battery and sim card, which I have to say is a bit fiddly to open on my first few tries, however my N70 was also a bit tricky at first and I believe that once you have the knack of how to open these...
