Roku made a name for itself by providing a device that, for many, is synonymous with Netflix streaming. The quality of that service, and other premium, IP delivered media, has increased significantly since the original box was launched, necessitating an update to modernize the lineup and provide support for HD content. To address this, we now have the Roku 2 comprised of three models: HD, XD, and XS, spanning the range from $60 to $100. Each of the devices is capable of 5.1 bit streaming, but the Roku 2 HD, which is limited to 720p, it is not as interesting as the other two which are capable of delivering 1080p video. Today we take a look at high-end XS, which tops the XD by including Roku’s Bluetooth gaming remote, a USB port, and Ethernet.

With their new Helo TC RC Helicopter, Griffin aims to improve upon the general formula for indoor RC helicopters by swapping out an iOS device for the standard RC remote. The end result is a bit of a letdown, but the brilliance Griffin aimed for can still be seen, though it is obscured by a few glaring issues.

Up for review today I’ve got something a bit out of the ordinary, but it’s still tech related I think and it’s certainly not what I might consider a toy, but you might. Arctic has sent me over the Land Rider 403 Remote Controlled Leopard Tank and I have to say it’s a just a blast to use. The land Rider 403 comes completely assembled so all you have to do is charge the battery and start driving and shooting. The tank shoots shells by the remote control. The canon can be moved up and down and it’s attached to a turret that can rotate left and right. The Land Rider 403 is much more than a toy, it’s high quality and highly detailed remote control tank that I’m sure you’ll enjoy

Recently, motherboard manufacturers have been fighting their hardest to differentiate their products from one another in an effort to re-invigorate the stagnant PC business. A lot of this messaging has taken a very aggressive turn, where companies have blatantly called out or attacked competing products for not being the real deal or being up-to-speed.

Wer die Drehzahlkonfiguration der verbauten Lüfter selbst übernehmen möchte, kommt über kurz oder lang nicht an einer Lüftersteuerung vorbei. Ob man hierbei auf eine einfache Steuerung oder auf eine High-Tech-Variante mit Mikroprozessor setzt, ist meist eine Frage des Budgets und des Umfanges, in dem die Lüfter auf Drehzahl gebracht werden sollen. Für Anwender mit einer Wasserkühlung kann es durchaus Sinn ergeben, die Lüfter nicht nur auf eine feste Drehzahl zu fixieren, sondern diese nach der Wassertemperatur dynamisch anzupassen. Wer aber eine "einfache" Luftkühlung verbaut kann auf solche Feinheiten meist verzichten. Da bei luftgekühlten Rechnern aber meist mehrere Lüfter zum Einsatz kommen, wäre es von Vorteil wenn diese auch einzeln - oder in kleinen Gruppen - angesprochen werden können. Mit der 8-Kanal-Lüftersteuerung FC8 hat Lamptron ein Produkt im Angebot, welches scheinbar genau für diesen Einsatzzweck gedacht ist. Neben den erwähnten acht Kanälen ist vor allem die hohe Leistung eben jener interessant. So kann pro Kanal insgesamt eine Last von 30 Watt gesteuert werden. Nicht nur technisch, auch optisch will die FC8 überzeugen. Neben einer gebürsteten Aluminium-Front sorgt die individuell einstellbare Beleuchtung für jeden Kanal dafür, dass die Steuerung individuell angepasst werden kann. Wie die Lamptron FC8 in der Praxis abschneidet, zeigen die folgenden Seiten.

Photographers need a certain level of professionalism in all aspects of their work, so, if you work from home, choosing the right printer is key. The Epson Stylus Photo PX830FWD printer is one of Epson’s most recent six-colour home inkjet printers and is aimed at photographers. It boasts a wide range of features including WiFi, an SD card reader and even a CD drive. However, with a relatively high price tag of around £200, is it worth it? Let’s take a closer look.

I’ve never reviewed a label maker before. I honestly never thought I’d need one. I never wanted one. I’ve since changed my mind on all of that, I’ve got a label maker now, a nice one actually and that’s what I’ve got for you right now. Today for review I’ve got the Epson LabelWorks LW-400 Label Printer that will change the way you look and think of label makers, I know it did for me. The LabelWorks LW-400 is marvel truly, it comes complete with many fonts and styles built right in, but that’s not all. The LW-400 has a very large set of graphics built in as well that can be used for borders or identification or whatever your mind can think up. With the LW-400 you’re not limited to just plain labels either, you can purchase many different types, patterns and even colors of labels and you can even do iron-ons with it.
