Qtek 9000 / o2 XDA / SPV M5000

Advantages: inbuilt Wi-Fi and Bluetooth
Disadvantages: very slow, low battery life when wifi and bluetooth are turned on

...processor and this runs pocket pc 2003 excellently. If you are considering spending alot of money on a windows smart phone like this one then i would recommend the O2 XDA mini / MDA Vario. I tried the XDA mini out in an o2 shop recently and it was brilliant, the operating system is slightly different to that of the Qtek 9000 and it runs alot smoother! Another disadvantage of this phone / PDA is that, when the screen is flipped up and the phone is in the shape of a laptop computer, typing is ok when the phone is in your hand, but when you get an option on the screen, you have to take one hand off the phone and reach to the back of the phone for the stylus, so that you can tap the option on the screen. I find this extremely fiddly and annoying, but when you flip the screen around and use it like a normal PDA, then you can use the stylus alot...

Review of Qtek 9000

beautiful but expensive

Advantages: ...
Disadvantages: ...

...I have had the possibility to try its characteristics to beginning year when we have furnished it to a client. The first impression is that of a bulky product and of difficulty transport. This first impression is confirmed after the first hours of use. It is not an instrument that is lent to the transport in the small pocket of the jacket or in the tied up custody to the belt . Commercialized both from the Qtek (with 9000 note it initials) that from her i-mate (with JASJAR it initials) it distinguishes him from the other devices of the same nature for the ample display TFT from 3,6" with a resolution from 640*480 pixels to over 65.000 colors. The keyboard to 62 keys allows an efficient control and above all the express use of the softwares from office avoiding the uncomfortable keyboard to screen to use with the pen (this...

Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 an excellent buy

Advantages: Produces a really good quality picture
Disadvantages: Expensive and sometimes struggles in low light conditions

...The Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 is an excellent webcam that produces a really crisp and clear picture at the other end.

The webcams image quality is really good in conversation with skype according to my friend in China. The picture...

Qtek 9100 bliss

Advantages: Packed full of easy to use and usefull features
Disadvantages: the processor is not the best.

...features just as the PDA is. The battery life on this PDA is not the best, but is more than enough. At the moment after 6 months of being used as a moblie office, my battery is still able to last around 48+ hrs. Of couse it is to be expected that the bttery life decreases if left active or bluetooth, wi-fi or infrared red are left on. All in all this device has been a life saver, i am glad i bought it and dont regret a thing. Definatly worth the money and a must have for people looking for a first PDA or Pocket PC....

BlackBerry Bold 9000 Review

Advantages: Look & feel; sound quality; fast Internet; range of features
Disadvantages: Camera not great; file transferring is quite confusing

...It was time for an upgrade from my old mobile phone to a new one, and I spent a whole month trying to decide which new phone to buy. I soon narrowed it down to a BlackBerry Bold 9000 and the Nokia E71 - both, I was told, are "fantastic phones", and after having a play with the BlackBerry Bold and Nokia E71 in a phone shop, I quickly knew BlackBerry Bold was for me, and I ordered it the very same day. BlackBerry's have been popular for a while now, and I was eager to know why. They are known for being the phone for business people; however, I don't think this phone should be restricted to that band of people alone. I will use mine for both business and personal use and so far it has worked well for both work and pleasure. Just in case you're curious, I bought my BlackBerry Bold 9000 from Vodafone. I have been with Vodafone...

Review of BlackBerry Bold 9000

Blackberry Bold 9000

Advantages: Easy to use, pleasent to look at, good battery life, big memory, good camera, easily customisable.
Disadvantages: May not be for those who prefer a smaller phone.

...I have previously been an owner of the blackberry curve and pearl and the bold by far is the best phone I have ever laid my hands on. The phone is stylish and the format is set out in a clear and easy to use way. Although fonts are limited, the new fonts added to the bold are nicer to look at than the previous. The phone is very easy to customise, with a vast variety of covers, cases, skins to protect the phone, although the phone is very durable. Unlike the other blackberry's, the bold has a leather look hard battery/back cover, this is also very useful, because if your one that is careless and drops the phone, like myself, no scratches are seeable. Many themes can be downloaded and bought for the blackberry bold, meaning you can customise it to your personality as much as possible, you can even make your own themes...

9000 reasons to get a 9000

Advantages: Nice affordable motoring
Disadvantages: Electrified Everything

...seats, electric aerial, sunroof, climate control, battery meter, you name it the 9000‘s got it and its electrified! The 9000 comes in either Automatic or manual, but me being an automatic hater, mine is of course Manual. I can’t think of anything more boring to drive than an Automatic, that’s all. Like I said the 9000 is no longer available new, but used prices are from free (For a battered old one) to 8 or 9 thousand for a newish top of the range model. I’ll stop ranting on about this magnificent piece of engineering now, thanks for reading this op. Now go out and buy a SAAB 9000!...

Energizer AA 2500 mAh Rechargeable Batteries

Advantages: Long Life
Disadvantages: Exspensive

...Hi today I will be reviewing Energizer AA 2500 mAh Rechargeable Batteries. Price You can buy these from Amazon for cheapest £7.05 I got them for £10 from B&Q and I got a charger as well. Life I recommend fully charging these for first time use. I put them on for a day. From the full charge I managed to get a week use out of them. I use them in my Xbox 360 Controllers which are used by me and my brothers so they were on for most of the week. Charge While using the official charger for this product it takes around 6 hours to charge fully (Overnight). Size I find that these batteries are a little larger than the usual AA batteries because in my Xbox controller when I first got them in they took quite a lot of force to get them out again. After using them for quite a lot it seems to have stretched the battery pack so it...

Review of Energizer Batteries

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...

Remington S9000

Advantages: temperature control, smooth plates
Disadvantages: age quickly, confusing controls

...With wavy hair, I haven't got ringlets to iron out, so the lower temperature settings on the Remington S9000 were perfect for me. To perfect styles, the higher temperatures work alright. The Remington S9000s aren't the best straighteners I have ever owned, after a year of use I can tell the difference between brand new and well used; unlike the GHD's I owned for 2 years! The smooth plates are kind to my hair, but with hairspray can become sticky - like most hair straighteners. The Remington S9000s are also quite difficult to programme to the right temperature, a simple 'hot' or 'cool' setting would have worked perfectly, but its like using a clothes iron on your hair! The Remington S9000s are also quite heavy, unlike the GHD's, so even though they straighten out my waves for a good few hours, I wouldn't recommend them to people...
