New Olympus E-420 DSLR - compared against rivals
Today Olympus announced its latest DSLR, the E-420. Successor to the E-410, the new E-420 shares the same compact dimensions which make it one of the smallest and lightest DSLRs around. The core specifications of a 10 megapixel sensor with Live View and effective anti-dust features remain, but the E-420 now features a slightly bigger 2.7in screen and the addition of contrast-based AF facilities complete with Face Detection. For those who really like to travel light, Olympus has also introduced a 'pancake' style 25mm f2.8 lens which measures just 23.5mm and offers standard 50mm coverage on the E-420. The E-420 will be available in April for 379 GBP in a kit with the 14-42mm lens. Check out our Olympus E-420 feature comparison to see how it measures-up against its rivals. Read More

Windows Vista - Start Menu - Taskbar - Toolbars - Expand the Control Panel to a Menu
Provide easier access to Control Panel items via the Windows Vista Start Menu.
Normally, accessing Control Panel items from the Windows Vista Start Menu is a multi-step process. If you are using the standard Windows Vista Start Menu, you must click on "Control Panel" from the "Start Menu", wait for the "Control Panel" window to open, and then select your desired applet. Or, if you are using the Classic Start Menu, there are even more steps - click the Start Menu, then select "Settings", then "Control Panel", and then select your desired applet once the "Control Panel" window appears.
Would you like to save a step by making the Control Panel automatically expand from the Start Menu, providing easier access to configuration applets?...

T-Mobile Sidekick 2008
Before teenagers were snapping up iPhones and BlackBerrys left and right, T-Mobile’s original Sidekick was the phone to own for fashion-savvy textaholics. The latest T-Mobile Sidekick bulks up on features without bulking up on size, making it a definite upgrade and a solid value as far as we’re concerned – even with the more crowded market for smartphones.

Red network migration: Part II
Red network migration: Part II
It's a new letter - and now confirming that I will be on the Red network in 4 days!

... and it also comes with the home phone features guide (which I'm sure I found it in the Vodafone Help
system somewhere before...) - just goes through the new processes with the unbundled home phone product.
I'll post my ADSL sync when I get a new modem (which should be soon) as my D-Link isn't up to ADSL2+ yet.
Hope to still you on the other side!
