New nokia 5800-Review

Configuration details:Call quality was never an issue with the 5800, as it easily lived up to our expectations of a Nokia-branded phone. Ring tones sounded quite loud and we were happy with them even in noisy environments. The vibro alter was of moderate strength. You also can mute the 5800’s notification sounds and ringtones simply by flipping it face-down. So, first things first, when the 5800 Tube is going to arrive? On December 5th it will kick...

CyberPower Gamer Infinity 600 review

While this PC's looks might not suit all tastes, the CyberPower Gamer Infinity 600 is well made and offers decent performance. Having designed it primarily as a gaming system, the company has done a good job of making this machine look the part for the money. !-- document.write(''); if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Mozilla/2.") >= 0 || navigator.userAgent.indexOf("MSIE") >= 0) { document.write(''); } document.write('');// --> ...

HP - Compaq dc7800 Ultra-slim

Here's a neat trick. In addition to being “ultra-slim”, the latest member of the HP Compaq dc7800 family can be made to almost disappear. OK, maybe not, but it can be made to take up hardly any room and be positioned out of sight, simply by buying the custom monitor/stand designed to go with it. The HP monitor isn't compulsory: any monitor can be used if you prefer. However, opt for the HP L1906i (£149 + VAT) and, in addition to a nice 19-inch...

Nokia E71 Smartphone Review

Tagged as the successor to the similarly shaped E61, the Nokia E71 is indeed a veritable improvement in so many ways. The form factor alone trumps the old. The E71 feels ultimately tough and robust while dressed to kill in chrome metal. It looks professional and feels expensive. But despite the heavy metal impression, the E71 weighs a mere 127g. The size is noticeably smaller than the E61 too. The plus point means that it’s now more pocket-able and...

When you first look at the motherboard you could be forgiven for thinking it's one of the new Intel Socket 775...
