Review - The HTC Touch Pro 2

Advantages: well designed, good touchscreen, good QWERTY keypad, improved sofware, good widescreen display
Disadvantages: Expensive, no spec bump, no flash module, heavy

... HTC Touch Pro 2 It wasn't all too long ago that I was eagerly awaiting the arrival of HTC's first Touch Pro handset, but when I did get my hands on it I was a little disappointed. I obviously wasn't the only one as I now have in my hand the new version, the HTC Touch Pro2. Even with its improved software and a very nicely designed tilt screen, I still needed to be convinced this was a serious alternative to competitive Smartphone's like the iPhone 3GS, Nokia N97 and the host of available BlackBerry's. Design and Features There is no denying that the new Pro2 is a very visually appealing handset, the 3.6 inch touchscreen allows for a 480x800 widescreen VGA resolution, using a customised version of the Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 OS. Although it is very 'business' like in appearance, its metal and black...

Review of HTC Touch Pro 2

The Touch Pro 2 won't please everyone but will do almost anything

Advantages: Has every feature you could wish for, good build quality, well thought out interface
Disadvantages: Big, Not for everyone

...HTC's Touch Pro 2 Review A little background HTC's Touch Pro 2 offers a lot over my previous phone, the HTC Tytn II, I bought the phone because I was already satisfied with Windows Mobile and I have had good experiences with HTC phones previously- ultimately this review reflects the quality of two phones, one belonging to my father and the other to me, and so far we're both very satisfied. Key Background This review is based on: * 3 months use as my sole phone * Two units (and two owners... no replacements needed) * Use of the UK Vodafone network * Using a HSDPA connection (negatively impacting on battery life compared to a 3G or 2G connection) * Use of the default Windows Mobile 6.1 OS and an upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.5 Initial thoughts I bought the Touch Pro 2 because I am a fan of physical...

Modern Warfare 2

Advantages: Graphics, Sound, Campiagn, Online Multiplayer, Simple Controls
Disadvantages: Complicated Multiplayer maps

...The wait is finally over and Call of Duty : Modern Warfare 2 has finally arrived. I was eagerly anticipating its release, so much so that I pre-ordered it the first day that it was available to do so. The original Modern Warfare and World at War are probably my 2 favourite games of all time, so would one of the most hyped up games of all time, live up to expectations ? ~~~ First Impressions ~~~ Right from the beginning I was impressed. The adverts before the actual game are again skippable, which means you're ready to start shooting in seconds. The first menu lets you go into whichever game mode you want and all in all the game looked excellent after the first minute or so. ~~~ Story ~~~ The game takes place 5 years after the original Modern Warfare. Despite your best attempts back then the Russians have...

Review of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (PS3)

Apple MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.26 GHz - 13.3" TFT - excellent!

Advantages: portable, runs very fast, large storage with TimeMachine application for backing up your work
Disadvantages: some problems with using Safari, though this may be due to the wireless network I am using, costs!

...In my opinion, the Apple Macbook Pro is an ideal laptop. As a student, I find that it meets all my needs - I can store plenty of music, photos etc even though I bought the cheapest one with the smallest memory. The system operates very fast and comes with both Firefox and Safari. My only criticism is that it only comes with textedit and so you have to buy iWorks for around £65. However, despite this it is good value for money and I don't regret spending my 2 years worth of part-time earnings on it! It has everything I want from a laptop and is ideally portable and good for watching films despite the smaller screen size. Another feature I particularly liked was that it has a light up keyboard for when you are in darker rooms - you can adjust the brightness of the keyboard the same as you can for the screen. Looks very impressive! It is...

BA II+ PRO, the calculator for the Pro.

Advantages: Sleek design, reliable, Time Value of Money keys
Disadvantages: Could do with a larger screen

...This calculator is a must for anybody who does finance, accounting, economics, investment, statistics, and other business classes. On some courses you may find that this is the only calculator you can take to the exam! The calculator has really good feel to it and looks really professional. The calculator itself is kindof brushed metal with a black protective case. I used to use the BA II Plus before and moving onto this calculator was a huge improvement both in feel, quality and looks. The calculator has essential functions such as Time Value of Money and allows you to calculate cash flows using the "CF" key. It is a great calculator to own, the only downside is the size of the screen... some have a huge screen which allows for multi-line calculations, but this also has a "store key" allowing you to store numbers allowing you to...

Modern Warfare 2 The Truth

Advantages: Everything
Disadvantages: may think that campaigns a little short but perfect for me

... Modern Warfare 2 Introduction Oh my god, modern warfare 2 is out and I?ve got it. With over 7 million copies sold world wide, on released date, modern warfare has no shortage of people to play with. Modern warfare 2 is the sequel to most probably the best shooter of all time (until this one) and this one expands and improves in almost everyway. There has been a lot of controversy about certain content which personally I don?t see that much of a problem with but if you don?t want to see it you can block that section out so what?s the biggy. Modern warfare 2 contains a brilliant campaign which although some reviewers such as ign say is to short i think it is perfect as it makes a good story, ends it very well and if it was to long I wouldn?t get the extra hours on multiplayer, Multiplayer has been further improved as I will...

Review of Apple MacBook Pro Core 2 DUe

Advantages: Most points are advantages, excellent laptop!!
Disadvantages: can be difficult with compatibility when dowloading, doesn't work with 4OD

...I would recommend this product to anybody looking for a laptop. It's very easy to use, even for somebody who would describe themselves as computer illiterate. It's suitable for both personal and professional uses and the small details such as the built-in camera and the iphoto application aswell as the remote that comes with it which can be used for power point presentations etc. make the Apple Macbook Pro stand out amongst other brands. It has bluetooth for easy connection with your mobile phone which can come in handy, regular update alerts which have been suprisingly useful. The safari internet server is very well set out and easy to use. As a student with lots of essays to write and passages and reports to download from the internet, it was important to me for my laptop to have a system that would allow this to be both easy...

Use pantene Pro - V for pro results

Advantages: Works excellently, smells great
Disadvantages: Expensive

...PACKAGING This comes in a big bottle which i think is very luxurious looking. The label on the front is decorated with lovely colours such as gold, which you will see beside the pantene pro - v logo and a lovely picture mainly covered with blues, varying in intensity of colour and silver at the bottom. This asks do you have short or normal hair and want resilient healthy looking hair that shines.

Review of Pantene Pro V 2 in 1 Shampoo/Conditioner

Really Does Work (Pantene Pro V, 2 In 1 Shampoo)

Advantages: 2 in 1 means you only have to wash and rinse once, leaves hair smooth & looking great
Disadvantages: None

...the bottle up on it (which means the shampoo is always at the lid end) and the clip shut lid means sure you don't have any spillages if the bottle is ever knocked over. The label is a simple label it has the Pantene logo at the top and then a green flash with Smooth & Sleek Shampoo & Conditioner written in white (the colour of the flash changes depending on which shampoo you purchase). Then you have 2 in 1 written in green just below the flash. On the back you have all of the usual info like the ingredients and directions for use etc. The Shampoo The shampoo is white in colour and has a nice creamy smooth feel to it, it has a nice subtle smell to it but I can't quite put my finger on what it smells like. The shampoo lathers up reasonably well, I find that I don't have to use very much of the shampoo (which means it last a long time) and I have...
