K550i

Advantages: great price
Disadvantages: not many

...When you think Sony Ericsson and Phone, you just have a picture of an expensive walkman thing that's just hyped up. Not with the K550i! It is now quite cheap to pick up and to be honest, it's not much far behind newer phones. The K550i is an upgrade to the incredibly popular K500i and it's just so much better! The camera isn't awesome at 2MP but ample, but that's only half the story. This phone takes some stunning pictures which when first viewed you won't be able to tell that it has been taken with only a 2mp camera. The video is equally impressive. In fact, both the camera and video are much better quality than many supposedly better and more expensive phones. And then there's the music player which as expected is of top sound quality. 64MB internal memory isn't going to store more than 1 album at most but the compatibility...

w550i, loads of features!

Advantages: compact, reliable
Disadvantages: Buttons may be too small for some people

...I got this phone about 4 months ago second hand, and I have to say I was very impressed. Being the first Walkman phone released by Sony Ericsson I wasn't expecting much, but I was wrong. It's a tidy little phone; with the 180 degree twisting function in 2 directions makes it very stylish! All the files on this phone are transferred using the data cable for the pc, which is provided, or a blue tooth or infrared adapter for you pc. Walkman Starting off with the main factor of the phone, the Walkman! The Walkman on the w550i is very easy to use. The walkman features the option to create play lists of your favourite songs, view the tracks in alphabetical order or arrange the tracks by artist for separate viewings, say if you wanted to access a certain album. When playing the songs, you can choose whether to play your songs on shuffle...

K550i

Advantages: 2gb memory, A2DP, bluetooth
Disadvantages: sound

...Well i am using this mobile for last one year and it is good in my opinion but not extra-ordinary. The features i love are EDGE, bluetooth, track ID, e-mail, GPRS, my experience This mobile was a dream to me, when i bought this mobile in december'2007 I was just amazed by the phone but now I am familier with all the problems and good features of this mobile. First of all the tiny and hard keypad is really miserable , when i try to write a sms it makes my life a hell . To overcome this problem now I use my pc mobile software in linux to send sms when I am in home. Before this one I had sony-ericsson K510i. Which was a great phone with much less price. Another great problem with this K550i is that its USB port , when i try to connect it to my pc via a data cable maximum times my pc can not find a connected device. I have to re...

My lil Buddy K550i

Advantages: Small, lightweight, large screen, memory stick capacity
Disadvantages: small buttons

...your photos as wallpaper or download more if you want more variety. In addition to the above the phone has all the normal things you'd expect such as a calendar, calculator, Bluetooth, one pre-set game and alarms, giving me everything I need from my mobile phone. And in addition to its 64MB of memory there is also a slot for a memory card giving you endless space to store your photos and music. Ease of use ------------------ The phone is simple to use, everything is straightforward and there are even some applications that give you an info button so you can read what they are about. The keypad buttons do take some getting used to as they are so small, but it is not such a problem for someone with small hands like me. The shortcut buttons make the use of the phone so much easier taking you straight to what you want to do. Phone...

How I met your mother series 1

Advantages: Funny, a good sit com with a few good storylines
Disadvantages: Trying to be the "new" friends.

...who we are told at some point in the show, is NOT the children's mother (so to me Ted and Robyns relationships are pointless as we know all along it's not going to work out somewhere along the line- this isn't a spoiler by the way, it is openly broadcast on the show when the children ask if Robyn is their mother!). The shows story isn't really believeable, for it to take 5 series (and it's still not over) so 5 years to tell your kids how you met their mother is too long for this kind fo story to take, you wouldn't go into so much detail, and you'd simply say I met her this way. But it is an interesting story and your always waiting for Ted to meet a woman who he falls for. This first story is pretty much establishing the story and all of the characters. There are 22 episodes in the first series, although this is the first series...

Think Thinkpad

Advantages: Speedy, Robust, Good graphics card, Connectivity
Disadvantages: Not the prettiest of designs, Annoying keyboard layout w/ no Windows key and Fn/Ctrl key placement

...INTRODUCTION I bought myself a used IBM / Lenovo Thinkpad T41 for £129 and although it's a pretty old machine (probably from 2004) and fairly low spec by today's standards, I still feel it was a bargain. This was from Cash Converters. DESIGN The machine, like all IBM (now made by Lenovo) notebooks are intended for business users and so the design is not particularly sleek but instead, have a very 'professional' look to them. They all seem to be black with a little bit of red on the button and either a red or blue knob for controlling the mouse pointer. Some people think they're on the ugly side but I actually quite like the look of the Thinkpads. I've noticed that all IBM / Lenovo Thinkpads look alike and have the same body, keyboard and use the same smooth black matte material rather than plastic that most other...

The Finesse of the Z550i

Advantages: Feature packed and compact, competitive handset in its price range
Disadvantages: Battery life tends to be on the lower side

...Having used some Nokia phones previously, I decided to change the brand and go for a Sony Ericsson. My mobile phone device needs are pretty simple. Earlier, the Nokia 6101 that I was using fulfilled all my needs but since its battery was running out of steam really quickly after every recharge, I realized that I needed a new handset. My search zeroed in on the Sony Ericsson Z550i . The Z550i is feature packed and is a competitive device in its segment. By looks, you will see that this phone has a flap (SE likes to call it the clamshell model) that opens to reveal the keypad and the enlarged screen. The camera is fixed on the outer side of the clamshell and is of decent quality. It has a FM radio tuner as well, capable of saving up to 20 radio stations. By the looks of things, the Z550i?s body is made up largely of a combination...

Lenova ThinkPad R61i 7650 Review

Advantages: Easy to use, runs smoothly, good battery life and high quality.
Disadvantages: Some probelms with the wireless adapter.

...I have owned several different ThinkPad's over the years. I have enjoyed them all and found them to be extremely useful and reliable. I knew that I wanted a decent quality portable laptop that would be suitable for all the basics. I have been using the laptop mainly for office related items such as documents and spreadsheets but have also been using it to store and edit photographs and videos. So far I have had no problems and that fact that it comes with a media card reader was very useful. This version of the ThinkPad is pretty similar to the rest of the laptops in the series. There is little to no distortion with the screen and it is fairly bright and gives a high quality picture. I couldn't find any problems with the laptop as a whole, nothing is loose or flex's for the most part. The R61 has pretty much all the ports...

.''.lynn...i've stood on a spike..' Alan Partridge series 2

Advantages: SILLY ,STUPID and VERY FUNNY 'STEVE COOGAN'
Disadvantages: They only made 2 series

...I'M ALAN PARTRIDGE series 2 Written By PETER BAYNHAM,STEVE COOGAN and ARMANDO LANNUCCI Stars STEVE COOGAN as ALAN PARTRIDGE. SERIES 2 Has 6 episodes Alan Partridge has failed at TV presenting and so he has moved onto radio his current position is ''the third best slot'' on a Norwich Radio Station. Lets Just say ,Alan has his own style and way of saying and doing things.He doesn't think much before he says or does something either to offend someone or embarrass himself ,he is full of catch phrases and I mean you will no doubt find yourself using some of them in every day use after watching the series. 'Cash Back' 'back of the net' 'gotta laugh when you fall of a sofa' 'don't laugh.. you've broken your neck' 'ooo ya gonna have a good time' Better not list them all ,but that is a small few Alan really does have a bad case...

Advantages: Ease of use, strong build, excellent sound quality (walkman)

...I have been a Sony Eriscsson user for about 3 years now & have got through a few of their models. This phone is stunning in design (rotating flip phone) comes with choice of pearl or orange replacements covers (front & back) - The navigation is a joy & so easy to use, the graphics are nice & bright, you can choose lots of stunning themes for your phone to suit your personality or mood. Texting is easy & has a easy to use interface. Features FM Radio, 1.3MP camera + video capture, organizer with alarm ,calander, stopwatch, code memo, timer, applications, tasks, & light. This phone was the 2nd SE phone to display the "walkman" logo & it's older brother the W550 becacame the 1st. The walkman is very impressive & the sound quality with 'in-ear' headphones is excellent & really good alternative to a ipod - in fact I think the sound quality...
