Best Buys

If you're buying a new gadget, computer or technology product, take a look at our regularly updated list of the best products we've reviewed over the last few months:

Serif Pageplus X5 desktop publishing software
£80

With plenty of templates and plenty of power, Serif's latest desktop publishing program is a good choice for either home or small business use.

Amazon Kindle ebook reader
from £109

Hands down, the best ebook reader available at the moment. It does mean you're tied to Amazon for book buying, but the ease of use makes it worth while.

PC Specialist Fusion 460 Elite desktop computer
£699

A very impressive PC that's full of power and comes ready to play Blu-ray discs, with great performance and lots of storage capacity

Apple iPad tablet computer
£499

It's not for people who want to edit video or run several programs at once but the simple-to-use iPad is a great computer for less-demanding users.

Asus EEE PC 1005PE netbook computer
£290

A good-quality netbook with decent design and good battery life, and it's not too expensive. 

Nikon Coolpix S5100 camera
£180

For pictures and performance this is one of the best pocket-sized 5x zoom snapshots currently available for the price. Picture quality was better than we expected, and it's easy to use.
