Panasonic have just released their new handheld digital camera, and it looks like it may just be a winner.

WIth the Panasonic FP8 the research bods decided to take an innovative new approach.  Instead of simply increasing current specifications they did something rather radical.

The Sony PSP Go has been on the lips of handheld addicts for several months now, today however we got our hands on review of the latest Sony Handheld Console.

First off, Sony revised their larger screen approach, dropping it’s widescreen size from 4.3 inches to 3.8 inches.  This screen size change may make the device more portable, but some worry that it will affect it’s video viewing capability.

The new PSP is much smaller, and 43% lighter than it’s previous incantations.  This makes the device much more portable, yet it holds… Continue Reading»

I Thought I had seen the end of impressive iPhone Apps, but this one took my breath away.

Despite Sony’s protests that they would never create a netbook it appears that the new Sony Vaio W might just be that.  Now as most of us know netbooks are nothing new, they have been around for nearly a decade in one form or another, and during that time they were classed as small, shit,  laptops.

Recently however they have taken the world by storm, especially to those people who just need something cheap to use as they travel.

For this reason I think that the new Sony Viao W Series might just fail.  Sony have always brought out high quality, but… Continue Reading»
