- Samsung HZ15W
- The Samsung HZ15W is a camera that looks good on paper but doesn't live up to the specs. The main attraction is the 24mm-equivalent wide-angle lens with 10x zoom, which is certainly a plus in a camera this size, giving you a lot of shooting flexibility for less than $280....

- Pentax X70
- As first efforts go, the Pentax X70 megazoom camera is strong, though it succumbs to problems seen throughout the category--namely slow performance and a noticeable decline in photo quality above ISO 200. The camera's 26mm-equivalent wide-angle lens with 24x optical zoom is certainly very flexible and fun, and the X70...

- Logitech Harmony 900
- When we reviewed the Harmony One last year, we gave it an enthusiastic Editors' Choice and lamented only the fact that there was no RF option for people who had components hidden in cabinets or in closets. Well, over a year later, Logitech has given us what we asked...

- Canon PowerShot D10
- The PowerShot D10 comes across as one of the company's Digital Elphs in a fat suit--albeit a very protective one. Unfortunately, it's a suit you can't take off at the end of the day as you would with one of Canon's waterproof housings. But again, the extra layer keeps it...

- Samsung Magnet SGH-A257 - orange (AT&T)
- Messaging phones are the hot trend right now. We saw at least half a dozen QWERTY handsets debut at CTIA 2009, one of which was the Samsung Magnet for AT&T. The Magnet offers a nice alternative to the recent slider messaging phones from the carrier, such as the Pantech Matrix...

- Canon PowerShot SD970 IS (silver and gold)
- A 5x zoom lens and a 12-megapixel resolution isn't much to get excited about these days. Jam them into a somewhat unattractive compact body and they become even less of a reason to drop nearly $400 on a point-and-shoot camera. That's what's wrong with the Canon PowerShot SD970 IS. It...

- Logitech Harmony 1100
- When Logitech brought out its touch screen, tablet-style Harmony 1000 in 2007, it was clearly taking a stab at the high-end of the universal remote market. Unlike other high-end--and more expensive--models from the likes of Crestron, Universal Remote Control and Philips' Pronto line, the Harmony 1000 didn't require hiring a...

- Tax Refund Special: Laptops and desktops
- The average tax refund is around $2,500. Given the state of the economy, you may be tempted to stick it in your mattress. But we all know the patriotic thing to do is spend it-immediately. It may be too late to save Circuit City, but there's...

- Richard Solo 1200 - Backup Battery with Flashlight
- If you own an Apple iPhone 3G and use it relentlessly throughout the day, you've probably noticed its battery life often does not last as long as you would like. This is acceptable with something like a music player, but for a cell phone, it's a little more important for...

- Penguin 4X Quad Charge Station for Wii
- Of the trio of current-generation video game consoles, only the Nintendo Wii lacks a first-party recharging solution for its controllers. If you don't want to go through an endless stream of AA batteries, that means you'll be turning to one of the increasing number of third-party charging accessories becoming available....

- Microsoft-Yahoo: Putting the moving parts together
- Microsoft's $44.6 billion bid for Yahoo looks pretty compelling on paper. The deal even makes for a nice PowerPoint slide on synergies, but putting these two behemoths together could be difficult. Why? There's a lot of overlap. First let's get the slides out of the way. On Microsoft's...

- Microsoft's bid for Yahoo: Google could play spoiler and bid too
- Microsoft bids $44.6 billion for Yahoo in a deal that on the surface looks like a no-brainer. Unless Google bids too. The logic behind a Google bid for Yahoo makes a lot of sense. In fact, Google buying Yahoo makes more sense to me than Microsoft buying...
