  • Telstra F852

    The F852 may not be the best Next G phone available, but it looks good and the price is right.

  • Sony Ericsson Z750i

    The Z750i has spunky looks and a decent interface, but Telstra has shoved in a few naff features that either don't work or don't make sense.

  • Telstra F158

    Tradies interested in Telstra's "tradesman's" phone may have to toss away a hammer to make room for the F158 in their toolboxes.

  • Telstra F165

    Dubbed the "Country Phone" Telstra's F165 sure looks the part. A rugged, rubberised candy-bar form factor with an extendable external antenna masks powerful HSDPA connectivity.

  • Telstra EasyTouch

    A cute, Next G capable clamshell that performs well, but without any remarkable features the EasyTouch fails to make a lasting impression.

  • HP Pavilion TX1219AU

    The HP Pavilion TX1219 is great as a normal day to day business notebook, and not so great at being a tablet. Still the price is hard to ignore and it is an attractive machine -- so you could do worse than getting one of these.

  • Motorola RAZR2 V9

    Far from being another update, the sequel to the V3 is a whole different kind of RAZR, with rounder edges, shiny surfaces and -- somehow -- a thinner silhouette.

  • Telstra offers ExpressCard for Next G

    Telstra today said it had started selling a laptop mobile broadband card in the ExpressCard form factor suitable for the latest Mac and PC machines.

  • Palm Treo 750

    Here's a dollop of irony: the best Windows Mobile smartphone has been created by Palm! A bevy of OS enhancements and access to Telstra's Next G mobile broadband network easily make it the best Windows Mobile device we've ever used.

  • Photos: Fellows lifts the veil on Vista

    Windows Vista was officially launched at the The Museum of Contemporary Art of Sydney. It was also an unofficial handover of sorts from outgoing Microsoft Australia managing director Steve Vamos to Tracey Fellows, who starts her stint next week.

  • 3 NetConnect HSDPA ExpressCard

    3's new mobile broadband card is almost a no-brainer: It sprints along on 3's current 3G network and will kick into overdrive following the 3.6Mbps HSDPA network overhaul, slips into notebook ExpessCard and PC Card slots and to top it off, has exceptional pricing plans.

  • HSDPA: BigPond vs Vodafone

    High-speed mobile broadband has arrived! We compare Telstra's BigPond Wireless Next G service with Vodafone's HSDPA-enhanced 3G network.

  • BigPond Next G Wireless Broadband Mobile Card

    Fancy a 1.3Mbps broadband pipeline direct to your notebook, without a cable in sight? The new BigPond wireless data card makes good on Telstra's lofty promises for its Next G network.

  • Acer Aspire e650

    The Acer Aspire e650 is a powerful, feature-rich media centre, but we're still not convinced that Viiv is mature enough for mass adoption.

  • BlackBerry 7250

    As a tool for the e-mail-centric, the BlackBerry wins plenty of praise on its own merits and the addition of wireless modem functionality further sweetens the deal.

  • David Braue NBN needs workers on board
    Without consensus on labour issues, the eventual winner of the NBN may end up as little more than a lame duck and a cashed-up symbol of the conflict between the desire for progress and the lack of mechanisms to deliver it.
  • Array D'Ascenzo: Read p23 of security review
    Following yesterday's admission by the Australian Taxation Office that its courier had lost a CD containing the details of 3,000 self-managed super funds, it wants to review how it handles information. My suggestion: go back to the review completed in April.

    News headlines about portable storage devices going missing are as common as muck, but the problem could be even more widespread than you suspect.
