- iHome iP47BR (black)
- SDI Technologies has released some of the better affordably priced clock radios in recent years under its iHome brand, but the iHC5S wasn't among them. It wasn't for the lack of trying, however. The 2007 product did double duty as a clock radio and a Bluetooth speaker/speakerphone. In other words,...

- Surviving a lightning strike: Shock and awe
- Swaddled in air-conditioned comfort, sipping a Diet Coke I hardly noticed the late afternoon thunderstorm that blew in last Friday. They're a common occurrence in central North Carolina in the summer time; so I continued with my work secure in my technological web. In the background I could hear the...

- Photo gallery:2009 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMGMercedes-Benz's smallest U.S. sedan, the C-class, continues to impress us, this time with the sport-tuned 2009 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG version. We previously reviewed the C300, and found that its updated electronics put to shame the tech in more expensive models from Mercedes-Benz. With the AMG version...

- Lenovo ThinkPad X200
- We were a little surprised when Lenovo announced an X series laptop with a 12.1-inch wide-aspect display; after all, the similarly sized ThinkPad X300 had won over many hearts and minds when it was introduced earlier this year. But the new ThinkPad X200 does nicely round out Lenovo's ThinkPad family....

- Motorola Motorokr T505 - speakerphone
- At first glance, the Motorokr T505 seems like an average visor-mounted speakerphone. Its calls are clear, its design is unobtrusive. However, when we looked a little deeper and really explored its features, we found that there is a much more complex and flexible device hiding under the T505's simple exterior....

- The midrange of a product line is sometimes where bargains meet high-performance, and that describes the LNA550 series of LCDs from Samsung quite well. The company's entry-level 1080p resolution models, represented in this review by the LN46A550, lack the fancy "touch of color" styling, Internet-connectivity, and 120Hz processing of their...
