Palm Zire 72, my new school planner

Advantages: Cheap, Fast, Not a windows wannabe, digital camera built in!!
Disadvantages: not that many programs available

...The Palm Zire 72, the powerful PDA for those on a budget. I use it all the time in school for keeping an eye on timetables, meetings, clubs and homeworks set. It has a simple menu system and fantastic hand writing recognition. It does truely put Pocket PC systems to shame. I borrowed an Ipaq H5555 for an evening to compare to this Palm Zire and have to say that it was slower and a lot more bulkier than the Palm. Yes it does have wi-fi but i don't want to use the internet on my PDA. The machine looks the part, forget silver you want blue!! And not matt blue ooooh no... metalic blue. Fantastic looking piece of kit A fantastic machine for the price, and some cheap ones can be picked up on ebay for silly prices. Mike...

Gps 72 Handheld

Advantages: Lightweight and waterproof
Disadvantages: Wrist Strap

...I am a commercial fisherman who relies on both exact and dependability in a Gps navigation aid. The Garmin Gps 72 is a very dependable unit i use another brand on my boat while working and i have the gp 72 beside it and have found it to be a better unit allround, so i hear you all say, well this is why i mentioned my other unit, the other ones costs nearly £700 and is a fixed unit, with a smaller display. My gp 72 cost me £130 and is handheld and portable, also with the correct lead available from Garmin you can download and update data from your computer or laptop. I use mine for work when i am called out for the HM Coastguard Cliff Rescue Team that i am a member of and found it is very accurate and dependable. It has a clear display excellent features easy to use menus and functions, setup is easy as all you have to do is...

Review of Garmin GPS 72

Lots of New ideas, but nothing Great

Advantages: New enemies, New Power-ups and New Levels
Disadvantages: Repetitive, Familiar and much more possibilities

...When the new super mario bros. came out for the ds it was a ground breaking development it sold out in minutes and was the must have game for the Ds. unfortunately this cannot be said for the wii release. although this version has the ability of multi player on one system and a different story line it still feels very repetitive, the 4 selections of players are. Player 1 must be Mario Other players have the ability to choose from, Luigi, yellow toad and blue toad. the first few levels put you into the retro feel of Mario with the first ever level port and same old monsters attacking you, after the first 3 - 4 levels it will start to get different with new monsters, new challenges and new thumb mashing levels. other new features are 3 new power-ups, one is a snow suit where you fire snow balls that freeze enemies, another is...

Snow joke with JJ72 singing

Advantages: Broken Down' and 'Improv'
Disadvantages: The noise!

...This is by far not an album that I would have normally purchased, however I was browsing on Amazon and ended up here via a series of clicks, often what happens and before I noticed I had clicked too far and bought the album as it was very cheap. Apprehensive at first as my memory of JJ72 is from years ago when they got over played on the radio, I remember that voice and thinking what a horribly whiney bunch of garble, I now know the voice to belong to Greaney. Great start to the album, oxygen and willow, deeply relaxing tracks with great inclusion of the violin, always like to hear that on a popular music album. And here I'm glad to hear Greaney's voice is not piercing my ear drums but is being used very well, reaching and straining with the music and not dominating the music. Things go down hill with Surrender, track 3. It...

JJ72

Advantages: Beautiful, Melodic
Disadvantages: Slightly Depressing...

...Back in the year 2000 i went to Radio 1's 1 Big Sunday in Ipswich. Amongst the acts were Texas :), Muse :D, Emma Bunton :( , 5ive :S and an Irish 3 piece I had never heard of called JJ72. Well they did two performances and it was the best live performance i have ever seen. Oxygen especially just blew me away. So I bought the album JJ72. And I love it. Personally it means a lot to me because it got me through a very low point in my life but whatever the state of your life the albums melodic brilliance demands your attention. Admitadly this isnt the type of album you are going to put on at a party to get everyone dancing or the kind of album you are going to have on when you are cruising around on a summer day, roof down. But thats not the point. It's perfect when you want to chill out, when you want to contemplate or when you...

It's a new me

Advantages: It's Mario, it looks lovely, sounds brilliant, plays well
Disadvantages: A little easy, a little short, a little lacking in possible DS features

...After purchasing a Nintendo console one of the first games you have to buy is that consoles Mario game, be it the original games on the NES, the 3D monster on the N64, the wonderfully huge Mario Galaxy on the Wii or of course this, ?New? Super Mario Bros. On the DS. Costing around £30 for the game may seem like quite a lot but with it being Mario you know to expect quality, fun and one of the most complete platforming games available to gamers anywhere out there. Simply put Mario is a sign of Nintendo at their complete best, but how does the DS game hold up against the others in a long line of great games? Well the opening menu gives you a host of options including 2 player, single player and mini games. Though the mini games seem rather pointless they do allow you to have a play with the DS and use the stylus, good idea but sadly...

Phone of the future?

Advantages: Good interface, durable
Disadvantages: only 4 GB memory

...a recording function and an organiser which hosts Calculator, Calendar, Clock, Converter, Data Synchronisation, File manager, Notepad, What time is it. Personalisation. On the Nokia E72 you are able to customise profiles, like with most phones, depending on your needs. If you're on a train and need a discreet/silent feature you can just switch it over. It features 25 build in polyphonic ringtones and with 4 GB space for more. In conclusion the Nokia e72 is a great product with so much features. It's worth buying but the price is steep if you're buying for a pre paid sim card. I would recomment O2 personally but it obviously depends on your choice. It's good if you want a complicated phone with lots of new and exciting features but if you just want a basic call/text phone this isn't the one for you....

A Whole New opinion

Advantages: informative, interesting, emotional,price
Disadvantages: /

...I've always liked Katie Price, but when she returned to 'I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here', I discovered a new found appreciation for her. Whenever she would be slated, either in the media or by people I know, I would stick up for her. It even got to the point that if somebody near by was speaking ill of her I was itching to interrupt their conversation (thankfully, I never did!). To show my support I also bought a 'Team Price' jumper, which resulted in many people screaming "Team Andre!" at me in the streets. Yet, I still never game up with Katie. She's human, and should be treated like one. When I thought I could not admire Katie any more, I was given one of her several autobiographies, 'Jordan: A Whole New World' for Christmas. I got stuck in straight away. I had hoped that this would introduce me to a whole new side of Katie...

Review of Jordan: A Whole New World - Katie Price

Nothing New!

Advantages: some good articles, not too expensive
Disadvantages: Quite a lot of boring articles

...Digging into the pile of magazines I bought the previous week, I fumbled across a copy of New! Magazine, this one dated December 2008. I had initially bought the magazine because of the cover stories; news of celebrity 'bumps', and an article about Jade Goody. I could only hope the rest of the articles seemed as promising inside, as this was the first time I had bought a copy of New! After you turn over from the attractive pink cover, you come to the usual contents page you find in a magazine. Usually I skim read this, though as I had not read New before, I decided I'd not bother this time and find surprise in the extra features I hoped to find within. The next few pages contained images and little facts about celebrity gossip and fashion in general. Usually these celebs don't interest me, though on finding Myleene Klass here, I...

JJ72 album review

Advantages: an excellent album added to your collection
Disadvantages: head might explode because it's too emotional

...effective drumming and the beautiful Hilary Woods (the bass is too low to really talk about how good it is but I had to fit her in here somewhere) all help build and support this great music. One of the best albums of the year: without a doubt. Together with Muse, Radiohead and new Blur JJ72 are, and will continue to, push a new angle of rock music that the genre so desperately needs....
