The Good Portable and compact. A good companion for the mobile organisation freak and social media tragic.
The Bad Anything viewed full screen has a black bar across the middle. Paltry internal memory.
The Verdict It's no iPad competitor but somewhere out in tablet land there is someone with a particular set of requirements and a pathological hatred of iTunes who will think the P is the bee's knees.

The Good Superb print quality on a range of papers. Excellent black and white prints. Colour gamut respects dark tonal values.
The Bad You need to be vigilant with colour management or wastage will make running this printer uneconomical.
The Verdict Top notch printer among the best, possibly the best, in the A3+ class.

The Good Small size, light weight, big capacity, wireless connection, plays just about anything — a pretty solid companion for any iPad
The Bad WiFi connection precludes other connections, so your iPad can't check email or surf the web while connected
The Verdict The main criticism I hear from "serious" iPad users is its limited storage. The Seagate GoFlex Satellite answers that criticism in spades.

The Good Easy to set up and begin play. Able to play against AI when you don't have any one to play against.
The Bad Questions don't live up to the difficulty level indicated by the game's name.
The Verdict Simple fun and always an engaging game, Trivial Pursuit is an evergreen that translates very well to iPad and is good value.

The Good Excellent adaptation for iPhone. Easy to create simple music tracks but room for complex works in hands of a competent user with musical training.
The Bad Sharing songs and samples is a pain.
The Verdict A lot of fun to use, this app could be improved to play better with other apps, but even so it's the best app of its kind on the market.

The Good 64-bit operation. Magnetic timeline. Background rendering. Easy colour grading. Easier for amateur users to embrace.
The Bad Buggy. Crash-prone. Less capable than the previous version with many features missing. A radical change to the software that is counter-productive for experienced and professional Final Cut Pro users.
The Verdict Disappointing. Very disappointing. Beta software that you have to pay for.

The Good Latest firmware update makes it a very solid performer; as good a handsfree kit as you'll find.
The Bad Requires professional installation — and make sure they update the firmware. Seriously.
The Verdict Before the firmware update I could not in good conscience have recommended this product even to my worst enemy. Since the update it's a new device and I'm a convert.

The Good Fast performance; Thunderbolt has plenty of promise; Upgrades to processor, graphics and I/O
The Bad Heavy; Higher resolution or anti-glare screens cost extra.
The Verdict If you need a notebook with serious grunt, the MacBook Pro is an excellent buy

The Good New guitar presets are always welcome. New timing correction tools will add polish to compositions.
The Bad Waveform editing of real instrument tracks is hard on the eyes.
The Verdict No great strides forward but some solid new features bring a measure of value to a package that is otherwise a bit too lacking in new features.
