  • Sony Ericsson S500i

    What the S500i lacks in the high-end gadgetry of its competition, it makes up for it in style, ease-of-use and its budget price tag.

  • LG Viewty (KU990)

    The touchscreen interface and sexier design will be enough to make knees tremble, however, the Viewty's 5-megapixel camera falls short of our expectations.

  • Terapad Pro

    Hosted CMS and blog solutions litter the market, yet none offer Terapad's combination of simplicity and functionality.

  • Apple iPod Touch

    If the Touch is the player that you want, that you really, really want, you've probably got one already. Fence-sitters should stay there until next year when third-party apps or version 2.0 comes out.

  • Apple iWork '08

    Apple's new iWork becomes a more well-rounded productivity package by adding Numbers for spreadsheets. Pages and Keynote include some nifty visual enhancements too.

  • Adium X 1.0.5

    Given all the great consumer-facing open source software available, I figured I'd try to evaluate and write reviews on those I use most often. Open source long ago stopped being about developers for other developers. Here's proof.

  • Microsoft Expression Web

    Microsoft Expression Web is a solid Web site layout program that replaces FrontPage and offers tools for dynamic designs, although we'd like more help for newbies.

  • Dell customers want XP, not Vista

    After adding it back as an option for small businesses, Dell offers the older OS on consumer machines in response to demand in the US.

  • It's crunch time for Palm

    Palm pioneered the smart phone, but if rumours prove true, the Treo maker may not survive as an independent company to watch its creation move from the corner office to the street corner.

  • Microsoft Outlook 2007

    If you work with Microsoft Outlook on a daily basis, this upgrade can make scheduling simpler and e-mailing more interesting. Still, we wish Instant Search and e-mail rendering were better.

  • Microsoft Word 2007

    If you're ready to let go of old habits from previous versions of Word and want to make sleeker-looking documents, Microsoft Word 2007 is worth the upgrade. However, less-expensive alternatives handle its core features without the clutter.

  • Microsoft Office Standard 2007

    If you need to make sleeker-looking documents and presentations, Microsoft Office Standard 2007 is a worthy upgrade. But stick to your current software if you don't feel that it lacks anything.

  • Photo gallery: Will the real iPhone please stand up?

    Apple's iPhone hasn't even made it onto store shelves yet, but it already faces a growing number of rivals, from Cisco to Nokia and even Prada.

  • Telstra F850

    The Telstra F850 offers a relatively inexpensive way to jump aboard the carrier's Next G platform, as long as you don't mind travelling in the slow lane.

  • Zoho Office Suite beta

    The Zoho Office Suite beta has strong potential, but it's not yet a final product, and its spreadsheets and presentations apps need more work before you can rely on them.

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