rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author daveP86 - I bought this camera before I went to Prague last summer to replace the Kodak EZ-200 budget digital camera that I had because I didn't want to compromise my photo's of the beautiful city with poor photos. Also whereas I only used the Kodak photos...

Smaller and better

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author daveP86 - Mini what?

MP3 on CD is the people's format - unlike minidisk or the solid-state devices, this device combines ubiquitous CDs with ubiquitous MP3. This player is unusual in that it only plays 3-inch/80mm "mini" cds. This is a great...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author daveP86 - A firewall is an application that allows you to selectively block certain types of Internet traffic in order to minimise risks of hackers compromising your system. Even if you don't know it, it is likely that countless bored 12 year olds across in the...

Interact Glowguard Light (GBA): Go Glowguard!

Sat, 22 Dec 2001 12:13:28 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author daveP86 - You will probably need a light for your GBA if you want to avoid the anti-social experience of sitting with your back to the window just so you can play a game.

The GBA screen isn't as bad as some people make out, and if you use your Gameboy...

Ecks-elent !!!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author daveP86 - I've been waiting for this game ever since I saw a preview of it in September. Ecks v Sever, is a 3D first-person-shooter for the GBA.

Firstly to put this review into perspective I'm not a big fan of first person shooters on the PC. (In fact...

Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition (N09-00048) For PC: Believe the Hype!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author daveP86 - Background

I used to use Windows 98 at home, I am a Software Developer and so I consider myself to be a bit of a power user. Windows 98, just wasn't good enough for me. I spent more time rebooting my computer and fixing badly behaved...

EZ200 Great value and pretty good

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author daveP86 - I decided to update this review two years after I wrote it - see below

The main reason I bought this camera was because of the price. Most digital cameras are priced out of the range of normal cameras, but this was quite...

A-MAX DAV309 Personal CD Player: My new toy

Sat, 28 Oct 2000 19:03:15 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author daveP86 - Come on admit it. Do you really need one of these? Audio CD, MP3, and VideoCD in one package – of course you don’t. But if you’ve got the spare cash (and it is a bargain) it will definitely impress your mates.

I have had mine for about a...

HP9150 - Well made and it does everything

Wed, 18 Oct 2000 15:09:31 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author daveP86 - I'd been wanting a CD-Writer for ages, and I was going to go for the HP8250i (because it's cheap), but I decided to spend the extra, and I'm glad I did. I really looked into them before I bought it, and a lot of CD-Writers seemed to be good at some...
