Sony
Grandroids: Samsung Galaxy S4, Sony Xperia Z, HTC One
It’s bloody hard to pick a winner from this bunch. They each have their upsides and some very minor downs. The HTC One camera is a disappointment but it looks smashing; the Samsung feels cheesy but is incredibly light and has a fantastic camera; and the waterproof Z could come in very handy, while Sony have also done amazing things with the modding community.
Xoom and Play
North America is in the foul clutches of Superbowl Sunday: an orgy or consumerist messages interspersed with football. A visiting USAnian was regaling me with tales of a sideline man with giant orange gloves, whose sole job is to get the attention of the referee when it is time for more commercials.
Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 First Impressions
Initial thoughts after 10 minutes: wow what a piece of utter crap. Seriously. Sony are harming the Android brand by leaving this device on the market with 1.6

If you want to lose days of your life, DPReview will bury you in stats and samples until your eyes bleed. It is [...]
Sony Vaio P: First Impressions
Yes, I’m typing this post on a Sony Vaio P. I’m currently at the wonderful Webstock conference in no-so-sunny Wellington*, and Sony kindly lent me the teeny PC to test during the trip.

Sony XR200, Panasonic TM200 and Canon HF11 Test
This is what they call a “lightning review” in the business. I’m not going to get into the nitty gritty specifics on the cameras, because quite frankly I’m not an expert. I’m using these things as they’d be used in the wild: pick it up, turn it on, and film some stuff. From left to [...]
