By now, most people who wanted to get an iPod Video would probably have gotten one and there are plenty of reviews and opinions about the 5th Generation iPod. I didn't originally plan on getting one, especially after I had just bought a 4th Generation iPod (and I already have a Mini and a Shuffle not to mention other MP3/entertainment devices). But, I went...

I read about the iPod Shuffle launch and just didn't know if it was for me. On the one hand, it's a very impressive, well-designed, small MP3 player; on the other hand though, it was rather expensive (compared to others in its range) and could be just a bit too simplistic for my liking (I like all things with plenty of controls and buttons)....

With the way in which Plasma prices have fallen since I first got one nearly 3 years ago, I knew it was only a matter of time before I bought another one. I've had my eye on the Hitachi Plasma's for quite some time now and I was so ready to pull the trigger last summer. The PD32A3000 32" Plasma was the perfect model...

I have wanted a small MP3 player for sometime now. After unfortunately sitting on an airplane with nothing to listen too and nothing to do, I knew it was time to make an acquisition. I have gone back and forth about getting an iPod and in the end, I decided to look at other possibilities. I wanted my MP3 player to be as...

So if you're ever in Hong Kong, what is the one thing that you should definitely buy? In the gadget world, there are probably a hundred different answers I can give you. PDA, MP3, MD? We have so many unique products from Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Europe, and North America. But without a doubt, I tell everyone that if you haven't already got one (and...

I went to buy a new stereo last weekend. As you know, I have my heart set on a new Sharp Auvi SD-NX10. I was so excited taking the train over to the store. I finally arrive ready to plunk down my credit card, when I was stopped dead in my tracks -- SOLD OUT. Darn. The anticipation of wanting to buy something, and...

I've often wavered between video and still picture format. I started with 8mm, then Hi-8mm, but after that, I resisted the change to DV (technically, mini-DV). My logic was this: I have a number of 8 and Hi-8 movies that I have taped but NEVER, EVER watched. So what exactly was the point? The revolution of digital photography allows me to share my pictures...

MP3 has never excited me because of its poor quality. The same reason that I dislike buying VCD's (I prefer the superior quality of DVD) is the same reason I have been slow to take up MP3. The Minidisc is my preferred recordable medium. Anyway, I usually end up just buying all of my music on CD from HMV. Eventually though, I knew I...

Who says earphones can’t have style? The Bang & Olufsen Earphones are in that elite category of B&O products. With high prices, B&O is often reserved for the few that enjoy form over function. These headphones though are more affordable than some of the other products made by B&O. And the temptation was just too much for me. So is this all for show...

"For enjoyable living and style. New player for the best times. To see is grand." Ever since Panasonic first released a DVD Portable player in 1998, I've wanted one. But the first players had small screens, and worse of all, the battery was the size of my then MD player, and lasted about an hour and a half. So I waited, and waited...
