- RCA HDV5000
- Quick Take: The RCA HDV5000 appears to be a clone of the Toshiba HD-A1 HD-DVD player. The specs and features are essentially identical, with only a minor change to the player's cosmetics: the front panel of the RCA HDV5000 reverses the black and silver color scheme of the Toshiba, and...

- Zenith DTT901
- Editors' note: The DTT901 is nearly identical to the Zenith DTT900, except the DTT901 adds the ability to pass analog signals to a TV and has slightly better sound. Otherwise, the reviews are virtually identical.The FCC has pushed back the DTV transition several times already, but it looks as if...

- Samsung BD-P1500
- The most important question for any standalone Blu-ray player is whether it's better than the Sony PlayStation 3. Let's answer that one right off the bat: Samsung's new BD-P1500 is not. They both cost the same ($400 list), but the PS3 has better image quality, currently supports both Blu-ray Profile...

- Bose Companion 2 Series II (graphite)
- Bose makes a few different computer speaker packages, the least expensive of which is the Companion 2 Series II at $100. The package includes two compact speakers measuring 7.5 by 3.2 by 5.8 inches; both are angled slightly upward so the sound is aimed toward your head when you're sitting...

- RCA Small Wonder EZ200
- Until the recent arrival of Creative's Vado, the biggest competitor for Pure Digital's Flip Video products in the minicamcorder, straight-to-Web video arena has been RCA's Small Wonder. While the video quality of the Small Wonder hasn't quite measured up to the Flip Video models, it does bring some features to...

- RCA Small Wonder EZ210
- Of all the budget minicamcorders released in 2008, RCA's Small Wonder Traveler EZ210 may be the oddest duck of the bunch. It has some things going for it: SD card support up to 8GB; a large, sharp 2.5-inch LCD display; and a "rugged" exterior that can presumably help the Traveler--now...

- JVC TH-F3
- When we looked at last year's TH-L1 from JVC, we were really impressed at the number of connectivity options the compact 5.1-channel home-theater-in-a-box HTIB packed in its tiny chassis. While the device didn't come with a built-in DVD player, it still was able to switch between two 1080p-capable HDMI ports....

- Dish Network DTVPal
- The FCC has pushed back the DTV transition several times already, but it looks as if over-the-air analog TV signals will actually end on February 19, 2009. That means owners of analog TV will need to pony up for a DTV converter box if they want to continue getting their...

- Sony HT-CT100
- It's a familiar story in consumer electronics: start with a luxurious, expensive, and exclusive product category, and within just a few years, you'll see a sea of imitators delivering the same basic item with more features, less money, and--ideally--better performance. Take single-speaker audio. Once the exclusive domain of Yamaha Digital...
