Navigating your way

Advantages: small & handy, easy to use, not stupidly expensive
Disadvantages: freezes if not turned off properly

...the cost of a carry case later we were the owners of a GPS! Inside the box was the Navigon system itself which is stylish and sleek. It's not too big which is a plus as my mum's is huge and takes up quite a bit of dash space (She's got a Mini but still!). A car holder which attaches to the screen via suction cup and a USB connection cable. The maps cover 40 different countries yet still think the Citron dealership is 100 yards further down the road then it is. There are a couple things like that I have noticed which are no big thing really as you are still in the right area. There is one awkward roundabout near me and the GPS tell me to be in the middle lane when actually you need to be in the right-hand lane and it sees the magic round-about (six mini round-abouts in one) as one massive round-about. All this being said my other half...

Review of Navigon 4350 MAX

Navigon stuns the market with innovations again

Advantages: Feature rich, easy to use, bluetooth to your phone for handsfree
Disadvantages: Doesn't have the community features that TomTom has.

...I've had the Navigon 7110 for well over a year, and as my 1st Sat-Nav I have to say I've been extremely impressed. I researched the market before buying, delving into forums, countless reviews and reached the conclusion that a TOMTOM = p*ss-poor. I found the Navigon and it was a breath of fresh air, it was the only sat nav that looked really really stylish (then). The 7110 has europe maps, and the 7100 has UK and Ireland maps, there is a £30 price difference between them. Not only did it look stylish, but it had features to match: ~~~~ Lane-Assist ~~~~ When your driving on a motorway it shows a 3d view of what lane you should be in (shown on the main image above..) - A bit gimmicky but remarkably handy when you decide to drive on english motorways (I'm from scotland and we only have 2 and a half motorways...

Review of Navigon 7110

Navigon 8110: a good design but very poor support

Advantages: Good design
Disadvantages: Very bad support

...I purchased the Navigon 8110 about a month ago. From the start it wasn't doing what it was supposed to do: navigating. No gps reception, no gps receiver icon on the screen. So, after two days of trying and re-trying I tried to call the support desk. For about 5 times (each time 10 minutes waiting) no luck, the sixth time I called the sales dept. and within 3 seconds the phone was picked up! The lady promised me to send me the details for sending the device to the company for a repair. I wanted a new device because in this one I had no faith anymore. Next day: no mail received. Once again I called the support dept, this time it took me 3 times; and this time I was more lucky. The device was picked up the same day. After 2 weeks I received the same device. Now I had a gps icon on the screen, and after a hard reset it was functioning...

Pucker up with Max Factor!

Advantages: Stays on and refuses to budge
Disadvantages: CAn cake on the lipts if your not careful

...it's time to move on from lipstick covered teeth yet! All in all this is a must have for the party season and has many more positive points than negatives, I for one won't be using anything else and I'll just remember that after a few hours I need to use the top coat and I'm away! I can't live without this product and even my Mother owns one or two of them now. If you don't believe my claims nip into a chemist and try a tester if your not brave enough to put it on your lips draw a line on your hand and leave to dry a minute then try removing it?! Case closed lol PS! Boots have an offer on, spend £12 on Max Factor get free goodie box and in TK ax you can get 4 lipfinity lipsticks for £10 in a case (regular size) and in TJ Hughes they have limited colours but are £2! It really pays to look on markets and in bargain buckets you...

Review of Max Factor Lipfinity

Relax with a Max

Advantages: Nice flavour
Disadvantages: Artificial ingredients

...Imagine my relief when I found out that Pepsi made a low calorie drink aimed squarely at the male market. Yes I know that it is perfectly legal for us chaps to consume diet Pepsi or diet Cola but I always found it a little embarrassing asking for the aforementioned beverages. I always felt that somehow my masculinity was being called into question if I entered a shop and picked up the diet version of any drink, real men simply don?t consume diet drinks. That is until Pepsi Max hit the shelves. When Pepsi Max was launched the adverts featured young sporty chaps performing all sorts of extreme pastimes such as bungee jumping, skateboarding and BMX racing. That?s the sort of image I want when I buy a drink. Although it?s fair to say my days of BMX riding are well behind me and the thought of attaching a piece of elastic to my ankles...

Max Beauty

Advantages: Stays on a long time, bottle lasts a long time.
Disadvantages: Slightly expensive

...skins an added bonus is that it leaves the skin lovely and soft. Max Factor Lasting Performance comes in a wide range of colours, ranging from very pale to very dark. I have very pale skin and blonde hair, so I use ‘fair'. Lastly, you must remember that once you have the right foundation, you can build on that to attain maximum beauty!...

Review of Mad Max (DVD)

MAX IS IN BLACK

Advantages: low calories, same great taste as of Pepsi
Disadvantages: artificial sweeteners, Phenylalanine

...Executive Officer of Pepsi-Cola and Herman W. Lay, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Frito-Lay, through the merger of the two companies in 1965. In 1975, Pepsi introduced the Pepsi Challenge marketing campaign where PepsiCo set up a blind tasting between Pepsi-Cola and rival Coca-Cola. During these blind taste tests the majority of participants picked Pepsi as the better tasting of the two soft drinks. PepsiCo took great advantage of the campaign with television commercials reporting the test results to the public. I do really want to participate in this research, and I'll surely select Pepsi as the better taste ^^. In the U.S., Pepsi's total market share was about 31.7 percent in 2004, while Coke's was about 43.1 percent. The Pepsi Max Pepsi Max debuted in the United Kingdom in April 1993 an alternative to regular Pepsi...

Review of Pepsi Max

Not exactly MaxFactor's pièce de résistance!

Advantages: Good, subtle daytime look, easy to remove
Disadvantages: Doesn't deliver on promises, no volume or definition :(

...volume and definition, I don't think it delivers on either. I was hoping for a more dramatic result, and I don't think the colour is very strong. I tend to wear this during the daytime for a subtle look, and for this it's perfect. The mascara adds a bit of colour and length to your lashes, but nothing major. Even with a couple of coats, the effect doesn't build up that much and I personally my lashes look better with just the one coat. However, I feel let down that MaxFactor don't deliver on their promises. I have the black mascara, and it doesn't create much impact. I said I'd be happy if my lashes looked half as good as the ones on the advert...in all honesty, they don't. Price & Availability Available in Rich black, Black brown and Deep blue, it also comes in a waterproof version. If you want more volume, Masterpiece Max is also...

Review of Max Factor Masterpiece Mascara

An Excellent All Rounder!

Advantages: feature-packed, TMC
Disadvantages: No automatic re-routing

...manner, I enquired of the surly youth behind the counter, who informed me that there were indeed supplies of this gizmo in stock, but they did not have them on display. Therefore, dear reader, if you want to buy this system after reading my review, you may still be able to get it even if your local store does not appear to acknowledge its existence! The Machine itself The Navigon 2200 boasts a number of features: TMC Reality-View Pro Text-to-Speech Lane Assistant Pro Radar Information Speed Assistant Now, all these different systems may have baffling names (well, they baffled me), so I will deal with each one in turn. First, however, I will describe the contents of the box. What you get The box contains the machine itself. This is a slim system. It is 95mm wide, 72mm high and only 17 mm thick. It...
