Highly Commended
Some products just miss out on our coveted 5x5 smiley award - a product has to be just about perfect in every way to receive that award! That doesn't mean there aren't a lot of very good other gadgets out there!
To recognise those products that missed out on a 5x5 award by just a whisker, we've introduced the 'Highly Commended' status. Products still have to be pretty good to get one of these and out of almost 5,000 reviews on GadgetSpeak (as of February 2016) only around 280 have gained the required marks to be Highly Commended!
Tell me more about the GadgetSpeak Awards!

Over the next couple of weeks this will be mentioned several times. As not only does this rate a review of its own it has also featured in at least two others.
A Travelling Companion

When it comes to laptops, Acer believes it can satisfy your every need. The TravelMate 4650 is one example
Whereas the Acer Aspire range of laptops has a home/entertainment feel to it, the company's TravelMate models are aimed more at the mobile/office worker who is looking for a desktop replacement or a combination of power and portability to take on their travels. Positioned somewhere in the middle of the TravelMate range is the 4650 model.
I reviewed the sibling to this (iP2000) last year, although this came out at the same time the media recommended to work with its CD/DVD printing capabilities has only just arrived.
It is 42x29x17cm and weighs around 6.5kilos. Paper is loaded face forward in a vertical stack at the rear of the unit and this adds around 21cm to the height. Paper is delivered face up from a drop down door that doubles as a tray to catch output and this adds another 21cm to the depth. As always the stated print speeds are not met, I managed 12PPM printing a 200 word document and just on 9PPM printing a 1500 word - spread over four page - item.
Memories fade as do photographs if you dont look after them. But how?
It started life as Shareware, became a popular commercial product and now has a new owner meet Paint Shop Pro.
http://www.corel.com/servlet/Satellite?pagename=Corel2/Products/Home&pid=1047023911984 It is with more than a touch of sadness that I have to report that
this review is based on the last version of Paint Shop Pro to appear
from Jasc. Incidentally I am reliably informed that the company name of
Jasc was formed from the initial letters of the founder's two main
interests - those of Jet planes and Software Company.
Carrying your data in a pocket has never been easier with a USB storage device.
Not all mice are created equally otherwise we would be deprived of the luxury of choice.
Print your photographs. Copy your photographs. Scan images. All these tasks can be undertaken by a single device.
Like most peripherals, printers have come a long way since those
early days when monochrome and dot matrix were the accepted standard.
Now we can take our pick from monochrome or colour lasers, all-in-one
(multifunction) devices, basic inkjet or specific photo printers with
additional functionality built in. The Epson Stylus Photo RX420 could
really be said to bridge two of this categories.

Instead of letting your fingers do the work, you could use them as an aid to your memory. To discover how, read on!

3megapixel, 3x optical zoom, 32MB SD card, if that does not get you interested then perhaps the sub £100 price point may, if not then you are probably not looking for a digital camera.
