    Three cheap business laptops 23/10/2008 09:05:00

    We test three low-cost laptops to find out whether they can stand up to typical business tasks.
    The stock market's a mess, your company's balance sheet looks like a sea of red ink and your budget for outfitting 50 employees with new notebooks has been slashed to the bone. What's a poor buyer to do?

    Apple's MacBook -- The case of the new machine 17/10/2008 08:40:00

    Is the newest laptop Apple's next Cube? Or a great leap ahead?
    Whenever Apple releases newly designed products -- meaning hardware offering more than just a speed bump -- the greater question is, "What does it mean?" That is, are the new features mere anomalies, or are they something truly new that will set the shape, material and design of the future?

    Product review: Netbooks for business 13/08/2008 10:55:03

    Pint-sized, ultralight, and ultra-affordable, a new class of portables woos the mobile professional. We put an Asus Eee PC and HP Mini-Note to the test
    The original Asus Eee PC took the hardware world by storm. Small, lightweight, inexpensive, yet running a full-fledged OS, this tiny device offered laptop capabilities at near-PDA pricing. Asus has since expanded its Eee PC line with models of varying capabilities, and competing devices are now arriving from other manufacturers, including Acer, Dell, HP, and MSI, among others. Collectively, these devices have come to be called "netbooks."

    Gadgets get Wi-Fi right (Part 1) 13/08/2008 09:08:07

    Highlighting two new devices that get the Wi-Fi connection right
    I'm often cautious of devices that claim to have Wi-Fi functionality and support, mainly because connecting to Wi-Fi (especially secure Wi-Fi) can be tricky for devices that don't utilize a browser or some other good input method. In the past, several devices I've tried (digital photo frames, cameras, printers) have failed to connect to my network because of the configuration issues required that weren't completely hammered out by the vendor.

    Internet radio appliances roundup 12/08/2008 10:55:06

    Stream music from around the world without a PC
    Web-based applications and products like Apple's iTunes have made it easy to turn a laptop or a desktop into a music player. At the same time, thousands of radio stations are re-broadcasting their audio over the Internet to anyone who wants to listen. But what if you want to listen to, say, modern jazz from Mali or pop from Paris without dragging around a laptop? Enter the Internet radio: an appliance that looks like a radio and has an antenna -- but connects over Wi-Fi to the Internet, and streams audio to speakers.

    Hands on with HP's Mini-Note netbook 08/08/2008 12:24:10

    Hewlett-Packard's Mini-Note is one of the most expensive netbooks, but you get what you pay for
    Hewlett-Packard's 2133 Mini-Note may end up as the premium choice among the entire mini-laptop, or netbook, category of devices announced so far.

    The Asus Eee 1000 -- more power, still portable 04/08/2008 09:00:22

    The latest iteration of Asus' groundbreaking mini-notebook adds a faster CPU, a larger display and a better keyboard.
    It often takes high-tech vendors three tries to get a product right. Microsoft is the best example of this rule of three. (Think of how buggy and insecure Windows XP was until 1Service Pack 2 came out. Upstart mini-laptop maker Asustek Computer, it turns out, is another.

    HP grooms iPaq for business 11/07/2008 11:22:22

    Slick, versatile smartphone builds on Windows Mobile 6.1's features to deliver Exchange e-mail support and more
    There are enough smartphone choices to make you dizzy. Yet in the business world, it arguably comes down to RIM's BlackBerry and select Windows Mobile-based devices -- with the strong possibility of Apple's 3G iPhone stealing some of their thunder.
