- Panasonic DMP-BD55
- Blu-ray has almost gotten its act together. After putting the stake in the heart of HD DVD, prospective buyers have had to deal with confusing Blu-ray profiles, varying audio-decoding capabilities, and standalone players with prices above $500.

- Winegard RCDT09A
- Earlier in the spring we published a blog entry titled, "Don't buy a portable TV this year" highlighting the fact that the vast majority of portable TVs use analog tuners that won't pull in TV signals after the analog-to-digital TV transition February 17, 2009. At the time, our advice was...

- Kyocera Tempo E2000
- We don't review many U.S. Cellular phones because the carrier is regional and not nationwide. However, there are several phones for U.S. Cellular that aren't available for other carriers, and the Kyocera Tempo is one of them. The Tempo is one of Kyocera's few music-focused phones released in the U.S....

- The DTV transition has been pushed back before, but the recent tests in Wilmington, N.C., make it clear over-the-air analog TV signals really will be turned off on February 17, 2009. That means analog TV owners will need to pony up for a DTV converter box if they want to...

- In terms of value, it's hard to beat a home-theater-in-a-box HTIB system. While these systems have long bundled the home theater basics--DVD player, amplifier, and surround-sound speakers--into one package, manufacturers have continually upped the ante in recent years with more and more features. Samsung's HT-TZ512T is an excellent case in...
