For those of you who have been living in a cave for the last month, the MacBook Air is Apple’s newest 13.3″ ultra-thin notebook offering cutting edge design in a remarkably thin package.

Reviewed: Dell XPS M1530
2:54 amWhen Dell released the XPS 1330 last year it was lauded by many as the best-looking laptop of all time. The look, size and build quality were perfect for the mobile traveller who needed something a little different. In many respects, the Dell XPS M1530 is simply the same machine but with a larger screen.
However, why change when you have a winning formula, such as the body being made from brushed magnesium-alloy that feels great to the touch and also makes the body solid and robust. The lid has a matt finish and you can choose from a range of colours, which adds a hint of personalisation to your laptop.
The screen is a 15.4-inch Super-TFT panel that has a standard 1280 x 800-pixel display that proved sharp and bright. This is due to the use of the 500nit backlit, which is twice the brightness of most […]

Reviewed: Sandisk Sansa Clip
2:49 amThis flash-based MP3 player is pitched as a rival for the iPod Shuffle or the Creative Zen Stone but manages to have a style all its own. Measuring 56 x 36 x 13mm, it manages to incorporate a 25mm screen that is far more usable than on the Stone. The controls are straightforward, but it’s the addition of a Home button than really stands out, as this is a one-click operation to get back to the start menu.
It gets its name from the clip on the back, similar to the one found on the iPod Shuffle, so you can attach it to the collar of your coat. With 1GB of space on offer – a 2GB version costs £35 (inc. VAT) – this isn’t a mass storage device but it’s fine for the gym. There‘s also a dedicated volume on the right-hand side. When it comes to […]

Reviewed: MSI Digivox Mini II V3
1:11 amPortable TV tuners are made up of two elements: the hardware and the software. In terms of hardware, the MSI Digivox is a large USB dongle with an RF antenna at one end that plugs either into your roof aerial or the supplied portable version.
With support for 1080i High Definition broadcasts, which you’ll need a subscription for, this works as a standard digital terrestrial TV tuner, so you can receive Freeview channels. You also get a brightly coloured remote control unit, which has large buttons and woks well.
Extras in the box include a USB extender, so the tuner doesn’t obstruct your other USB ports – essential if they’re all backed together as they are on most machines. You’ll also find a mini-aerial but as with all portable tuners this is only as good as your local signal, so it’s best to use a rooftop aerial whenever possible. […]
