- BenQ V2400 Eco
- With the Samsung SyncMaster XL2370 ($300) costing $50 less than the BenQ, there is simply no good reason to purchase V2400 Eco. Overall, the Samsung monitor has better performance, facilitated by its wider viewing angle and brighter screen. The BenQ gets points for its unique, stark white aesthetic and the...

- Ostendo CRVD monitor now available - but it's not cheap
- Defense training?But I never was seriously attacked by any of my monitors. So I will stay with Eizo, I guess.RE: Ostendo CRVD monitor now available - but it's not cheapIf it's like all other defense spending - by the time it's "deployed" it will have cost the taxpayer 5 times...

- LG 32LH20
- Photo gallery: LG LH20 seriesWe can't fault the LG LH20 series for trying. The company's least-expensive lineup of LCDs for 2009 offers more features than its competition, including the only USB port for digital photos and by far the best selection of picture adjustments. All of those tweaks...

- Samsung LN26B360
- Photo gallery: Samsung LNB360 seriesTo a bargain HDTV shopper, the array of small-screened LCDs must seem inexhaustible and indistinguishable, but among recent models we've reviewed, the Samsung LNB360 stands out with the best picture quality. It's no reference-level display, mind you, but it managed to beat out the...

- iTablet goes OLED,??bumped until late 2010
- $2000? I doubt it.Apple puts themselves in a "premium" price range, but $2000 for a 10" tablet? Even they're not THAT crazy.No ThanksDon't need or want either, waste of space...If I want real gaming, I'd rather play real games on my PS3 or Wii on my flat screen; or on...

- 2010 Honda Fit Sport
- Photo gallery:2010 Honda Fit SportSince its introduction to the U.S. market in 2007, the Honda Fit has endeared itself to small car lovers with its economical engine and flexible interior. The car received an update for 2009, gaining size and an optional navigation system. Those updates came just in time,...

- Zvox Z-Base 575
- Photo gallery:Zvox Z-Base 575Sound bars feel like they've been around forever now, but they're still a relatively new product; consider that the groundbreaking Yamaha YSP-1 debuted back at CES 2005. Since then, the exterior design of the units hasn't changed much, with the vast majority still consisting of a long...

- Toshiba 32AV502U
- Photo gallery: Toshiba AV502U seriesWhen we say the Toshiba AV502U series can produce relatively deep black levels, the key word is "relatively." It's perhaps more accurate to say that its shade of black outdoes most other less-expensive, lower resolution small-screened LCDs we've seen by a narrow margin. It...

- More evidence of the coming collision between home broadband and the smart grid
- Collision?Not the word I would have used.In any event, I think this is a positive and necessary direction to go. In order to manage more diversified, less dependable/consistent sources of energy, the demand side HAS TO be managed. Without it, we are just setting ourselves up for a lot of...

- Boston Acoustics Duo-i plus
- Editors' note: The Boston Acoustics Duo-i Plus is nearly identical to the Horizon Duo-i we reviewed a year ago. Not a lot has changed since then aside from the addition of full support for iPhone playback. While the Horizon Duo-i worked with the iPhone, the device had...

- Zvox Z-Base 525
- Photo gallery:Zvox Z-Base 525Surround sound and its accouterments tend to dominate a living room, requiring an AV receiver, several speakers, stands, and wires to make the whole thing work. That's why many people choose to skip surround sound, opting instead for the tinny acoustics of their TV speakers. Single-speaker solutions...

- Nokia 3711 - sable (T-Mobile)
- Nokia fans in the United States don't get many breaks. Few of the company's phones make it to U.S. carriers and the models that land here tend to be basic handsets for making calls. The Nokia 3711 for T-Mobile is one such phone. Simple in form and function, the 3711...

- Sony KDL-46VE5
- Photo gallery: Sony KDL-VE5 seriesIn case you haven't noticed, "green" is big business. One way for HDTV makers to cash in on the public's craving for efficiency is to label a TV "eco-friendly." Sony's KDL-VE5 series does just that, but unlike a lot of so-called green electronics, this...

- Toshiba Satellite T135-S1309
- Sometimes, it takes a good retail excursion to find a deal that isn't otherwise possible. Case in point: the Toshiba T135. While we have already reviewed two different versions of Toshiba's Windows 7 entry to the thin-and-light laptop landscape, we were pleasantly surprised by this retail-only configuration. This is not...

- Gateway NV5207u
- The Gateway NV5207u is what happens when a slow processor happens to an otherwise respectable budget-priced laptop. It's a good-looking notebook with a large screen, a decent port assortment, and a couple of extra features to sweeten the deal. But its AMD processor is a poor performer despite being dual...

- Apple TV update looks good but doesn't offer much more
- I second your thoughts, Sam.The updates were nice, but hardly worth it from the functional standpoint. Yes, Netflix would be nice, although iTunes provides most, if not all, of what Netflix would, doesn't it?One thing Tim Cook mentioned during the most recent earnings call was that Apple was going to...
