For the most part waterproof digital cameras are big a clunky, not the type of thing you want to carry around with you from day to day. Usually when people buy waterproof digital camera's they are just for that, using under water that's it. Polaroid wants to change that with the t833 waterproof digital camera. Not only is this camera waterproof, it is compact and easy to take with you anywhere. Geeks.com, which is a great place to find 8MP Digital Cameras, was nice enough to send this camera over so let's take a look and see if it's the perfect camera for summer.

Acard ANS-9010 RAMdisk vs OCZ Vertex 30Gb SSD - Shootout
Those looking for large storage are swimming in a pool of choice between 1~2000Gb hard drives at very competitive prices. If high performance is your goal there’s still plenty of choice but prices varies a lot.
When my colleague reviewer Massman finished his review of the ACARD ANS-9010 ram disk device he recorded some pretty amazing benchmark numbers 300-350Mb/s read speeds consistently and IO performance 4~5x as fast as a single OCZ Core SSD.
While the benchmark numbers were pretty impressive he was unable to do a side-by-side comparison of any real-world testing due to time constraints and resources. When he noticed my VGA test station he had found the perfect playground for this new expensive toy.
Toshiba Satellite U400-189 - 13.3in Notebook Review
It's not generally good form to start a review with a complaint, but if an example of the excesses of glossy black plastic was ever needed then Toshiba's current range of consumer notebooks would be the perfect fit. We thought Samsung was keen on the stuff, but Toshiba just takes the biscuit. A glossy lid we can deal with, likewise a glossy screen, and we can even tolerate glossy interiors, such as those found on the Samsung Q310, within reason, but glossy keyboards? It's just a step too far.
Happily, while we have some reservations with Toshiba's choice of materials, the U400-189 highlights that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover alone. A 13.3in machine, the U400 is the portable all-rounder of Toshiba's range, matching Core 2 Duo processors and decent feature sets with a 2kg chassis that can plausibly be carried around without breaking your back.

Nokia N810 only $148 via Nokia
This Nokia N810 is an internet only tablet that runs the maemo Linux-based OS2008 operating system. Never heard of that OS? Neither have most which might be why the N810 is quietly sliding out the bargain bin checkout aisles.
Still, for those who craze one of these Nokia’s, $148 from the manufacturer isn’t a bad deal. The device has a 4.1 inch touchscreen with 800×400 pixel resolution that displays up to 65k colors. There’s 2GB of onboard flash memory and a single expansion slot to stick your Secure Digital (SD), MultiMedia, miniSD and microSD memory cards - so long as they don’t exceed 2 GB in size. The N810 currently displays backorder - to get the price add it to your cart and slap in coupon code CARTP409N.

Android-based Alpha 680 netbook spotted in the wild
Still think an Android-based netbook is in your future? If the abysmal performance on video hasn't turned you off yet, maybe the fire-engine red paint job coupled with 90s-era carbon fiber accents will. What you see above is the first legitimate in the wild shot of Skytone's Alpha 680, and at a glance, we're marginally excited about the sizable trackpad and roomy keyboard.

Azza Solano 1000 Gaming Case Review
It's not often that a previously unheard-of company comes along and launches such a wide product line targeted specifically at a certain niche group of computer enthusiasts. But that is just the scenario that we have today with relative new-comer Azza. While some might say that the PC case and power supply market is already saturated with more than enough choices, sometimes a fresh look is exactly what is needed to jump-start a whole new direction in product development.
The Azza Solano 1000 gaming case is classified as a full tower steel enclosure with particular attention paid to good ventilation and a customizable layout. With dimensions of roughly 21½" x 8" x 20", the Solano might be better described as an oversized mid-tower rather than a full, with all ten 5¼" bays externally accessible.

Leadtek GTX275 Review
With the recent introduction of the ATI HD 4890, Nvidia needed something to directly compete with this card. Their answer was the GTX275, and today we have the Leadtek version of this card. Essentialy all Nvidia partners cards are the same, with the exception of the top sticker, so whats different about the Leadtek version? For one Leadtek does not officialy opperate in North America, which means it will be hard to get your hands on one of these cards without importing it from another country if you live in North America. That makes this primarily a review for our European friends, but if you want to see the GTX275 go head to head with the HD 4890 might as well read on!

Dell Mini 10v on Sale
If you wanted to know when the $299 Dell Mini 10v would be available to buy in the UK and for how much, the answer has arrived. The netbook is up for order on Dell's site right now starting from £199.
While undeniably attractive prices for a 10in netbook that entry level system isn't the best specced of laptops ever. A 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 isn't particularly disappointing but a mere 8GB of flash memory capacity and Ubuntu Linux is likely to put off many tempted by the price.
