The QNAP TS-659 Pro+ review
Posted on 4-Oct-2010 15:06 Reviews, Consumer Electronics, by M Freitas
The brand new QNAP TS-659 Pro+ is yet another example of a small, but fully featured NAS box, mostly designed for office use, but also useful at home - if you have the budget for it.

The first high end Android device to come to Telecom New Zealand, with the latest available OS version for this model.
Polycom IP335 review
Posted on 29-Jun-2010 15:51 Reviews, VoIP, by Steve Biddle
I’ve played with a large number of IP phones over the last few years and have always been impressed by Polycom’s range of IP phones. Polycom have dominated the audio and video conferencing market for a number of years due to their high quality products and have established a huge following in the VoIP market in recent years.

Synology DS209+II NAS review
Posted on 15-Oct-2009 16:04 Reviews, Consumer Electronics, by M Freitas
So what's not to like on this unit? Hard to say: it's small, quiet, offers a lot of features that help users enjoy their content from home or the Internet, and with up to 4TB of storage available it is an interesting proposition.
Samsung Series 7000 LED TV review
Posted on 7-Sep-2009 12:30 Reviews, DVB and HD, by Steve Biddle
Upon unboxing the TV the most striking features is how thin the TV is – at 29.9mm it’s one of the thinnest TV’s on the market. In terms of technical specifications Samsung have left nothing out. The TV features a Full HD 1920 x 1080 panel, Internet access and more.

Polycom VVX1500 review
Posted on 9-Jun-2009 16:36 Reviews, VoIP, by Steve Biddle
Polycom have been in the phone and video conferencing business for many years - but what has been missing in their product range has been a reasonably priced desktop phone supporting video calling. Until now.
