Review for Krusell Neck Strap:
Ideal for MP3 player
The case I bought for my MP3 player had a belt clip, but it bounced around a bit when attached to clothing. This neck strap is fully adjustable and comfortable and a bargain at £1.95. The postage was a bit steep but the product looks built to last.27

Fantastic little docking station!!
This device is fantastic - it does exactly what is says and is by far the best USB plug in docking station on the market - make sure you purchase the DVI version however as this brings more color quality than the VGA only version!!!Excellent!

Review for HTC Touch P3450 Pocket PC Phone:
I've got a weakness for cool gadgets, especially phones and have had a few touchscreen phones that were just impractical and too bulky, so I was hesitant to get this one. But then I saw how slim it was, and a few videos of how the TouchFLO worked and I didn't stand a chance.
One thing worth noting is that the TouchFLO interface is kinda wasted, it's just a bolt on to get you started using the usual Windows Mobile system, but there are a few programmes available online that go a bit further using a similar interface, which really does enhance the phone further.
Another bugbear is texting, it ships with every input interface Windows mobile usually does, except the phonepad, which is the most useful one. However, again with a little browsing on the internet you can find it free to download.
The camera's 2 megapixel and decent enough, though kinda eclipsed lately by alot of newer phones.
It's not a 3G phone but is WiFi enabled which works well, I've only used Internet Explorer which comes with it, but Opera mobile is said to work alot better.
I'd really recommend it. Despite it being a year or so old now and a bit eclipsed by some of the newer and flashier phones I'm still sticking with it, which really does say something about it.

Review for HP iPAQ 614c Business Navigator - Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional - PXA270 520 MHz - RAM: 128 MB - ROM: 256 MB 2.8" TFT ( 240 x 320 ) - camera - 802.11b, 802.11g, Bluetooth 2.0 EDR - GPS - GSM 850/900/1800/1900:
I would send / recieve emails on the device (even though it was set up to do it automatically) & it would not connect to my server saying there was a error...yet I opened my email on the laptop & lots downloaded on different accounts.
A reset would fix this, but I was resetting a couple of times a day at least.
Memory management is not brilliant on it either, you'll need a 3rd party app to make sure progs are actually closed rather than minimised when you close them.
GPS is ok, seemed to work but takes a while to find a satellite.
I returned mine after spending the best part of 3 weeks trying to get it to work reliably...and failing.
For the money, it is most definately not worth it.

I wouldn't bother
Battery life is terrible, a problem many people complain about, I was charging it in the office & at night. Connectivity is hopeless, it cannot easily switch connections resulting in you losing calls, emails not being delivered etc. This also cause MSN messenger to lose it's connection, although you cannot easily see this.I would send / recieve emails on the device (even though it was set up to do it automatically) & it would not connect to my server saying there was a error...yet I opened my email on the laptop & lots downloaded on different accounts.

Review for Bendi Board - Pink Flexible Keyboard:
good but doesn't light up
Well after only two days of waiting I got my bendiboard in the post. Only been using it for about half an hour. Fair enough it takes a little getting used to the buttons but I'm sure I will get it soon. I wouldn't suggest it for any touch typers or anyone who has to watch the keyboard to type because you will have a little trouble with correcting your mistakes all the time. However if you are able to stair at the screen while typing then you should be fine. The reason why I got this pink one was because it says in the title that it lights up or I would have got the white one that lights up blue but this one doesn't. I have tried everything and I can't see anywhere on the keyboard to turn the light on so thats about the only thing about this product that let me down. So for anyone who is going to get one of these and they want it to light up then I would say don't get this one.40

Not fit for purpose.
I am not normally moved to contribute reviews, but this product made me angry. It does not protect the screen (surely that is the main point of buying a case for a phone?), and the cut outs do not allow full function of the camera as the (hard) leather partially obscures the lens. I cannot recommend this case!
