Reviews

  • Palm Centro

  • Browser faceoff: IE vs Firefox vs Opera vs Safari

    Web 2.0, with its complex sites and rich Ajax applications, is an increasingly demanding platform for a browser. In this review feature, we look at how the leading browsers measure up.

  • HTC TyTN II

    It may not be a quantum leap compared with the 838 Pro, but the TyTN II maintains what power users loved in the previous iteration -- with a few extras.

  • HTC Touch Dual

    HTC's Touch Dual is an excellent PDA smartphone that makes up for absent features with its pocket-friendly profile.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • BlackBerry Curve 8310

    RIM has incrementally upgraded the BlackBerry Curve with the addition of a GPS receiver, although we're still waiting for 3G connectivity.

  • 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.

    Despite some flaws, the Apple iPhone sets a new benchmark for an integrated phone and MP3 player.

  • Apple iPhone

    We take an early look at the long-awaited iPhone -- a beguiling combination of touchscreen iPod, mini tablet and quad-band smartphone.

  • Corporate Portishead mashups wouldn't be dumb

    You hear a lot about mashups in Web 2.0 -- where one data source is combined with another to produce a new application where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts -- but the musical version of the term is far more apposite to corporate uses of 2.0 techniques than anything which relies on Google Maps APIs.

  • Google Australia: Not evil, just uncomfortable

    It appears that despite the massive amount of hype surrounding Google, the company is not immune from the bad marketing video plague that has troubled the best of corporate giants.

  • Angus Kidman I'm a celebrity, don't back me up
    Celebrity comes with its perks — free alcohol, better-looking partners, lots of holiday time — and disadvantages — constant media intrusions, being forced to appear in films with Eddie Murphy for the long-term good of your career, and having to do mindless radio interviews with angry men who've been awake since 4am.
  • Array Lies, damned lies and telco stupidity
    Earlier this month, Telstra put out a press release trumpeting that it's come up with a new phone coaching service to help people who are "bamboozled" by their mobiles. Another excellent example of wrongheaded thinking from the mobile industry.
