• Bose SoundDock Digital Music System For iPod Review   [Review, TheTechZone]
  It's a good thing that the Bose SoundDock offers superior sound quality because sound quality is really all the SoundDock has going for it. The SoundDock's design, while elegant, isn't nearly as functional as the Altec Lansing iM3. Also the SoundDock doesn't do anything except play music from your iPod. It can not act as a docking station to connect your iPod to your computer like the inMotion iM3 can. Also missing are any auxiliary ports for non iPod MP3 players. The SoundDock is meant for one purpose only - play music from your iPod or iPod Mini and play it at a really high sound quality level.

• Orange SPV M500 Smartphone   [Review, TrustedReviews]
  In some ways the Orange SPV M500 is the worst phone I’ve ever used - but as strange as it sounds I still really like it. You see if you want a regular phone the SPV M500 is not for you. On the other hand, if you’re want a great little smartphone, you can’t go wrong with the SPV M500. It’s the little brother to the SPV M2000 – not only in size but also in functionality.

• Surround Sound in a Box   [Roundup, PCWorld]
  Surround sound, from one device, without the hassle of setting up multiple speakers and stringing wire around the house... is it possible? Certainly. For people who love music and multimedia audio but lack the time and patience required to set up a sophisticated surround-sound home theater system, the following four products provide an intriguing, and simple, alternative. Each works differently: One enhances the audio your connected devices generate to simulate surround sound on your devices' existing speakers, while the others contain multiple speakers (in a single box) that boom out the sound. Despite the different methods they use, each lets you achieve louder, better audio, whether you're watching the news, enjoying an action movie, or listening to a classical CD.

• Siemens SL65, A Forgotten gem?   [Review, Hexus]
  Overall, a bit of a surprising package. Sure, it has its weaknesses, like any mobile, but if you are looking for something really small, to make and take calls and the odd picture you could do far worse than the SL65.

• Headsets Gamers Can Love   [Roundup, TomsHardware]
  Superior audio is not often associated with headsets, but great gaming, music listening and film watching experiences can be had without the ambient blast of speakers. What's out there, though, in the way of so-called high-end headsets ranges from the great to the not-so-great to the just okay.

• ATI All-in-Wonder Radeon X800 XT Review   [Review, sharkyextreme]
  The All-in-Wonder Radeon X800 XT may have a ton of onboard multimedia features, but at its base, we are still talking about a powerful Radeon X800 XT 256-MB card. This translates into top-end gaming performance, as the card is powered by a full 16-pipeline Radeon X800 XT core running at 500 MHz, along with 256-MB of GDDR3 clocked at 500 MHz (1 GHz effective). The All-in-Wonder Radeon X800 XT is clocked at default levels, and there is no effective difference between the performance specifications when compared to a standard Radeon X800 XT 256-MB board.

• VisionTek XTASY Theater 550Pro   [Review, HardOCP]
  Home Theater PCs (HTPCs) are becoming increasingly popular these days. A HTPC is nothing more than a simple computer combined with the multimedia hardware to connect to your TV that lets you accomplish tasks that you can’t accomplish with most DVR set-top boxes alone. Usually these computers are located close to your TV as part of your home entertainment center, but they can also simply be your primary desktop computer located in another room. With a HTPC, not only are you are able to customize the hardware components that fit your needs, but you also have software features such as video editing software available to you. This hardware and software flexibility combined makes computers the most versatile multimedia solution for whatever your needs are.

• Blue Tango Classic - Bluetooth Audio   [Review, Bjorn3d]
  Bluetooth can be used for many things. We have Bluetooth keyboards, Bluetooth mice and of course many phones today can connect to computers through Bluetooth. Innovation Lab Corp, though, has a pretty cool application for Bluetooth: wireless sound. They are not the first to create a product for wireless sound, but most use other means to transmit the sound (WLAN, RF etc.), and this is the first product I’ve seen using Bluetooth for this purpose. Today's review takes a look at what this product can do for your music listening needs.

• Compro VideoMate Action Ultra   [Review, Bjorn3d]
  I work the best when watching TV. At home I have a nice big TV on the side of my computer which always is on showing a movie or just a random TV-channel. Obviously at work I cannot do the same and need to solve this in another way. Luckily Compro came to the rescue and let me test one of their latest external TV-Tuners, the Compro VideoMate Action Ultra tuner.

• Creative I-Trigue 5600 5.1 Speakers   [Review, Hexus]
  The I-Trigue 5600 is a cracking speaker set, with sound quality right up there alongside anything else in the same price range. If that range seems a little too rich for you, know that until you've enjoyed the pleasures of surround sound, it's impossible to appreciate how much it enhances the enjoyment of DVD movies and gaming. That experience is worth paying for if the quality is right. And, with these Creative speakers, it is right. A further big plus (or a major negative, depending on your viewpoint) is that the design of these speakers isn't discrete. Heck, it's not intended to be. But whether it's too in-your-face to have around the place, only you can say.

• Lite-On LVW-5045 160GB HDD+DVD Recorder Review   [Review, Bjorn3d]
  To many advertisers' dismay, VCRs changed the way people watched TV over 30 years ago. Recording a show and watching it later allowed viewers to fast forward through commercials and watch only what they wanted to watch. Today, it's only gotten better (or worse, depending on what side of the commercials you are on) with products like TiVo and home theater PCs. If you aren't quite ready to have a PC in your living room, then a TiVo or other hard drive recorder would make a great DVR (digital video recorder) for you. With its 160GB LVW-5045, Lite-On enters the hard drive recorder market with an affordable offering that has a lot of potential. The LVW-5045 not only features recording to hard drive but also to DVD and CD media, building on the capabilities of the LVW-5005 I previously reviewed.

• Plusdeck PC Cassette Deck   [Review, Bjorn3D]
  It is not that often that I come across a product that has such a narrow target audience like the BTO Plusdeck 2. In short, it is a product that allows you to play old cassette tapes on your PC, record from cassette to PC and record music onto cassettes from the PC. Considering a lot of today’s young computer users haven’t even seen a cassette tape, you probably now understand why this isn’t a product for everyone.

• Sony Playstation Portable   [Review, Hexus]
  Holding the PSP up against the DS and Gizmondo, I’d say that there’s more on the PSP for the older gamer. The WIFI function makes it an attractive proposition for mobile surfing if Sony do a deal with a UK based ISP with national wireless coverage. How many early teen kids are going to want to bother converting MPEGs to copy onto their PSP? Or music or photos for that matter? No, given the complexity of the PSP, it’d be better used and give more satisfaction the older gamer… say late teens onwards.

  In my previous article, I told you all about the cool new portable console from Sony, the Sony PlayStation Portable. Even though it handles music and video very well, it is a gaming console, and thus its gaming capabilities are the most important. This last part in our Sony PSP coverage will focus on the games.

• Icemat Siberia Headphones   [Review, Bjorn3d]
  With all the talk about surround sound, 5.1 speaker systems and 7.1 speaker systems, it is sometimes easy to forget that in some cases a pair of good headphones is to be preferred or even a necessity. I, for instance, cannot turn up the volume of my 5.1 system too high since I don't want to disturb the neighbors or my wife. At the same time, I want to be able to experience a good gaming session of World of Warcraft or Doom 3, and we all know that the sound is just as important as graphics.
