The Canon Powershot SX210IS is a nice mid-level device for those want a little extra from their camera without having to break the bank, says Adam Maguire.

Review: Apple iPad »
It may not re-invent computing but the Apple iPad does bring it a step closer to perfection, says Adam Maguire.

Review: Epson P6000 »
When compared to a shiny laptop, a top of the range camera or a cutting edge phone a 'multimedia storage viewer' is unlikely to excite. The truth is such a device is not going to get many hearts racing but for the likes of professional photographers this may be the technology of their dreams.
