Evoke – 1XT Prestige

Published in Wireless on 29 Nov 2004
The world of broadcasting is embracing digital technology. DAB radio is a prime example of this make-over.
The world of DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) is certainly growing.  Whether it involves television, with Sky and Freeview leading the way, or DAB radio, we are seeing more channels becoming available.  Users are migrating, perhaps not in droves but in a steady flow, from analogue to digital devices.  DAB radio is of particular interest.

Paint Shop Pro 9

Published in Misc on 12 Nov 2004
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.

Published in Phones on 23 Oct 2004
Hands-free communication with a vibrator – it is possible with Bluetooth.
Let me start with a few words of explanation just in case you are one of those people who might have seen me standing around apparently talking to myself. No, this is not the onset of senility, despite what some might state; but more down to the fact that I have been using a mobile phone. Yes I know the phone was not immediately visible but when you have a Bluetooth headset then the phone can be attached to your belt or other appropriate location.

Print, Copy and Scan Photographs

Published in Misc on 19 Oct 2004
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.
