A better way to not get lost.

Mon, 5 Jan 2009 11:40:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - I'm on a bit of roll recently, with various new toys. The trusty old Garmin i3 is still working, but has suffered somewhat at the hands of her indoors. The battery cover has been damaged and doesn't stay in place properly. Anyway, that is besides the...

The (Almost) Pocket Camera Gets A Sibling!

Wed, 17 Dec 2008 19:02:50 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - We have had the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3 for about a year and a half now. Recently we wanted to be able to take some video, but I'm not keen having a large camcorder, and I had already been impressed by the quality of the video that the TZ3 took. The TZ3...

Goodbye Revo! Hello iPod!

Sat, 29 Nov 2008 21:42:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - Why Did I Get One?I suppose it had to happen one day. "What's that?" you ask, well... the demise of my beloved Psion Revo. I can't believe it has been eight years since I bought my Revo and wrote a review. Since that review was written I...

A Small Notebook, but what is is for? and why?

Sat, 22 Sep 2007 09:54:29 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - I prefer to use Apple Macintosh computers for my day-to-day use, and until a couple of months ago, on top of the old iMac and the PowerBook G4, we had a Windows XP desktop machine on lease. I had told my wife that when the lease ran out, I was going to...

Versatile (Almost) Pocket Camera

Sun, 9 Sep 2007 19:09:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - I've had this camera for a couple of months now, so I can now write a reasonable review... Our Minolta Dimage Xt is getting a little old now. Its had several new batteries, none of which last very long now. It doesn't reliably charge when stood in the...

Nokia N95: Is it a radio? Is it a GPS navigator? No! It's a Phone!!

Fri, 4 May 2007 08:58:47 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - I had been waiting for some time to see if T-Mobile (UK) would ever bring the Nokia N80 to its network. I have probably waited for about a year, in which time the Nokia 6230 that I was using was becoming more and more unreliable. One day the 6230 died...

Logitech S510 Cordless Desktop (2790187): Ah! That's Better, I've followed my own advice.

Mon, 23 Apr 2007 11:44:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - I have been struggling with a M
icrosoft
Cordless Desktop set for several years. I don't know why, maybe its some sort of desire to inflict pain on myself. I was never really happy with it, and over the last weekend,...

It sort of works, but not as well as I'd hoped.

Tue, 16 Jan 2007 05:49:15 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - I have had a second generation iPod Nano for some time, and wanted to be able to listen to the music in the car. The Jaguar X-Type has a Tape/Radio head unit and a CD-changer in the boot. This Alpine system predates the latest Alpine models which can...

How not to get lost... Well... most of the time!

Mon, 12 Dec 2005 20:20:36 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - I have only once before used a GPS navigation system, and that was a simple "turn left here, turn right here" system in a Toyota. That particular system took me, rather imaginatively through a multi-storey car-park, whilst trying to get me to a hotel in...

How to annoy the neighbours in one easy step...

Mon, 18 Oct 2004 15:02:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - ...Buy Altec Lansing 2100 speaker system for your PC, portable CD player, iPod, or whatever you have. No, really I'm being serious, I managed one complaint from the neighbours already, and I've only had them for about two weeks. The system is...

Not so sure of the benefit!

Mon, 18 Oct 2004 10:41:59 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - I ordered this as part of a complete system, well... it seemed like a good idea. It looks OK, but has more buttons than I'd ever really use, and doesn't feel solid enough. Maybe its just me, but I see Microsoft products as a premium brand, often...

A marvel of packaging, but...

Mon, 23 Feb 2004 15:37:11 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - I bought this camera for my fiancé as we were going to Brazil for Christmas, and wanted something that was discrete and easily hidden from view. Well its certainly discrete, and for normal use during the day it produced very good results. However it...

Little cat has me purring!

Mon, 10 Feb 2003 21:19:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - [Opinion started 11 Feb 2003] I have had my little cat (Jaguar X-Type 2.5 Sport) for a few months now, so I thought it about time I wrote about it here. I understand that this site is geared more to the American market, which is why the 2001 second...

Alsoft Disk Warrior: DiskWarrior to the rescue

Sat, 10 Aug 2002 11:58:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - A few months ago my iMac wouldn't boot without crashing during the start up sequence. Worst of all this occurred while I was working on a 60GB iMovie project! I thought about using the iMac recovery disk, but didn't relish the idea of having to start my...

Handy TV Monitor

Sat, 10 Aug 2002 11:26:23 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - I have had this little TV for quite a while so I thought it about time I reviewed it.

The picture with this review speaks for itself, but does not really show is size. I would guess this to be about the same as two cigarette packets side by...

Pioneer DV-444-K

Fri, 15 Feb 2002 09:59:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - I had been using a Technics midi-sized Hi-Fi system for several years (about 6 I think). Along with that there was a Sony Minidisc recorder deck, a VHS deck, a Wharfdale DVD player and a digital TV receiver. Too much! I wanted to reduce the amount of...

Sony PlayStation 2 Slimline Console: A Visual Feast.

Sat, 6 Oct 2001 10:56:24 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - I have had an original Playstation for years, and prefered to use that for games than my PC or iMac. I wanted a Playstation 2 but thought I could not justify the cost, but since Sony reduced the price recently, I decided to take the plunge.

It Organised Me!

Fri, 16 Jun 2000 05:21:59 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author srmoll - I had wanted a personal organiser for a while, but could not decide between a pen based organiser and keyboard type. The pad and pencil approach was not working, as bits of paper get lost and forgotten, plus they don't have audible alarms to warn of...
