Nokia N97 - 'The new iPhone'

Advantages: 32gb Internal Memory, Nice Looking, Full QWERTY Keyboard, 5 MP Camera
Disadvantages: A Little Bulky, Price, Small Processer Makes The Phone Slow

.... The process was easy and fast through the Vodafone website and I received my phone within 5 working days. The Phone & Its Specs The phone arrived in a neat little black cardboard box, with 'Nokia N97' in silver writing embossed on the front. Included in the box was: * Nokia N97 * BP-4L 1500mAh battery * Charger * USB data cable * Earphone-remote handsfree kit * Manual and warranty docs * Nokia Ovi Suite installer * Wipe cloth * Detachable stylus you can loop into the phone Design - In my opinion the N97 looks similar to the iPhone, just a little chunkier but overall smaller in size. The exact measurements are 117.2 x 55.3 x 15.9 mm (18.25 mm at thickest point) and it weights 150g including the battery. In my opinion the phone is a little too bulky for my liking. My phone was black but you...

The Energizer Battery Charger

Advantages: Good value for money
Disadvantages: Takes a long time to charge batteries

...I had been intending to purchase a battery charger for quite a while. In fact I had even dropped hints to certain family members around Christmas time, but to no avail. I was recently reminded of this missing piece of equipment in my life when I rediscovered the PC lead to my digital camera. Remembering that a pair of standard batteries lasted for only about 30 photos in this camera I decided that it was certainly time to invest in a battery charger and some rechargeable batteries. I purchased an Energizer CHDCW8 ? 4 battery charger from Argos for just £9.99. This decision was based on several factors, the most important of which was the price and what I considered to be the best value for money. The design also played a part in my decision process, but in the end it was the price/value that were the strongest influencing factors...

Nokias most recent attack on i-phone succes or failure

Advantages: memory
Disadvantages: touchscreen

...as a owner and user of the nokia n97 i can say i am overall very happy with the improvements that nokia have made on previous models i.e N96 and N95. Lets face it all of us who went from owning an N95 to what nokia seem to believe was a better model (N96) were extremely dissapointed as although looking good on paper the N96 failed to meet the standards of its pre- deccesor but i am glad to say nokia have redeemed themselves on the launch of the N97. There have been many improvements made on previous models i.e the processor is alot faster and the slow transitions between menus has been completely iradicated due to the massive 32Gb memory which can still be increased to a huge 48GB by the handy memory slot tucked away under the rear cover of the phone. Another improvement on previous models is the slider mechanism after a few minor issues...

Review - The Nokia N97 vs The iPhone 3GS

Advantages: Good Looking, Durable, Huge Memory, Very Very Good QWERTY keyboard
Disadvantages: Tiny processor leading to lag and application crashes

... The Nokia N97 Nokia have announced the follow up to their 5800 XpressMusic touchscreen phone. The Nokia N97, which utilises a 3.5 inch touchscreen and slide out QUERTY keyboard. Appearance The overall design of the N97 is not at all unique, looking like the lovechild of a Google G1 and Apple iPhone, comparisons have also been drawn to the AT&T Tilt, and rightly so. Despite Nokia's lack of imagination the N97 is a nice looking thing, apart from a small button in the bottom left corner, the 3.5 inch touchscreen dominates and looks sleek and well designed. When the QUERTY keyboard is slid out the screen sits at an angle, looking remarkably like the HTC TyTN. The N97 is both larger and thicker than the iPhone, which isn't exactly inconspicuous itself, this makes the N97 feel a little too large, especially...

2009 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 Sxi - NEW SHAPE

Advantages: space, steering, brakes
Disadvantages: boot and not as cool to look at as new fiesta

...My girlfriend and me were given an 09 plate Corsa, when she wrote of her Ford KA (click my name for a review of KA). It was Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 SXi in Silver, it had optional extras like bigger alloys wheels and tinted windows, but it also had a built-in Dashboard screen which I don?t know if is an optional extra or a modification, anyway it was at Pioneer screen which had Sat-Nav, radio controls, phone sync, CD player and if it is an option I would most certainly recommend it. The Corsa was very pleasant to drive, the steering is obviously PAS but it was extremely light, the brakes were excellent, the gearbox was surprisingly pleasant, and the driving position was fantastic. For a Super-Mini it really does feel like a big car, the driving position is slightly elevated and the dashboard is really quite large for a car of this size...

12 Rounds Of Torture

Advantages: Relentless action holds your attention
Disadvantages: Copycat storyline

...subjected to 12 rounds; if Danny is still standing after the 12 round he?ll get his girlfriend back, but if he?s not then Molly is for it. Will Danny make it through the 12 rounds? John Cena is the latest in a long line of WWE Wrestlers to try his hand at acting, some have been moderately successful (The Rock), some not so (Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin). Therefore it must be difficult for wrestlers to dodge that critism that every wrestler faces and the stigma that wrestlers cannot act has been something that has tied them down for years. Whether successful or not, or even whether they can act or not it?s clear that WWE stars are going to continue for many years in the future to star in lacklustre, disappointing films for the sake of a large paycheck. John Cena I have to say seems to be the best in a bad bunch, he doesn?t have...

Not re-volting

Advantages: Great fun to play and something different
Disadvantages: Not outstanding graphically

...If you're looking for a different type of racing game, Re-volt might just interest you. Re-volt is based around remote control cars and the storyline (such as it is) goes that these cars have been made magical and are driving out of the toy shop and taking on a life of their own. The game involves basic races around some oversized normal world environments such as a back garden, museum and supermarket. There are obstacles in each place that are representative of the area they are in, such as a wet floor in the supermarket and there are plenty of other racers to try to beat as you tear around the track. The basic race option is fun and well put together, handling is spot on and makes you feel that you're controlling a radio controlled car rather than a real one. The courses are well thought out and great to drive around. But...

Review of Re-Volt (Dreamcast)

the intelligent battery charger.

Advantages: Cheap, reliable, long lasting, reasonable price.
Disadvantages: Still gets warm. Plastic plug = breakable?

...---THE PRODUCT--- Definately glad to be an owner of one of these chargers, even though they seem quite pricey, the batteries are great as they are reusable, and you don't waste money on purchasing darn AA batteries, again and again. It's easy to use, don't take hours to charge like the previous models which took around 8 hours and meant that you had to leave it on over night, worrying that it would heat up and catch the house on fire. I wouldn't be without this, endlessly purchasing batteries for items. Furthermore you can't use ordinary batteries in Digital Camera's as they are drained after you've took three photo's with the flash on. These therefore are robust and useful in the long run and will save you money and time. ---MODEL--- The model number is. RC104318 It's full charge happens in about 90 minutes, however I...

The 2002 Corsa 1.2SXI Model

Advantages: Cheap, reliable little run around
Disadvantages: Waiting for delivery

...I recently bought the 2002 model Vauxhall Corsa 1.2Sxi, I was attracted to it by the great look, only then did I find out what advantages it actually has. It was priced at £8500, with the choice of 3 years intrest free credit. When I was looking round the showroom I was looking at all differnt types of models like the diesel and the petrol 1.2club etc (6999), but none were a patch on the Sxi. The difference being the interior and power to the engine: The interior on a Club is very standard, everything is platic and cheap looking, it has a radio casette, and even a coloured plastic gearnob, however the Sxi hs a CD player, Twin airbag, central locking, alloy wheels, twin spoiler and fog lamps it also has a great sporty effect on the dashboard ( a metallic grey). The car also has great security, the remote control...

Super Sony charger

Advantages: Fast Charge, Auto CutOff
Disadvantages: Only takes AA/AAA

...Getting fed up with constantly having to buy new batteries for our Wii remotes, we started looking into buying some of the rechargeable battery packs you can buy for them. I read a few reviews and decided that it would probably be better to buy a battery charger and a few sets of batteries instead. After looking around I found the Sony High Capacity Super Quick Charger For AA And AAA Batteries and for £16.99 with four AA batteries included it seemed like a good deal, almost all of our electrical items seem to be Sony so with it being a brand we trusted I bought it. The charger itself is fairly compact measuring 4" x 2½" x 1" (not including the power lead) it won't take up a lot of room, the power lead is also removable so you can store it away quite easily. The lead is also the same as the other Sony leads we have so if it gets...
