Personally, I am a fan of Belkin routers and I have owned a few good models in the past. By chance, I managed to get my hands on a Belkin N600 DB Wireless Dual-Band N+ router which, at least in theory, packs some interesting technologies and features. I was really curious to learn if it is a good router and if it is worthy of running my home network. Let’s see what I have found out.

These days, the touch mouse concept seems to be the new cool kid on the block. Microsoft has launched a touch mouse with great fanfare, and also has Logitech. They recently released the Logitech M600 mouse which aims to compete with Microsoft’s Touch Mouse. I used it for a couple of weeks, shortly after ending my test experience with Microsoft’s mouse. Let’s see how the Logitech M600 fares and if it is a great mouse or not, worthy of its premium price tag.

I have read plenty of reviews but none of them seemed to offer details about the real experience of using the Microsoft Touch mouse - the latest mouse launched by Microsoft.

If you want to know how it performs in real-life computing, don’t hesitate to read this review.

We would like to start our series of reviews of Windows oriented gadgets with a very good looking device: the Microsoft Arc Touch Mouse. Even though this product has been launched at the end of 2010, it is still one of the best looking mice you can find on the market. I have used it for more than a year and, in this, review I will share my complete experience, including details about its performance and looks, long after it was purchased.

It was so completely different from what users had previously experienced with Windows Mobile or any other operating system, they just didn't know what to make of it. How is Windows Phone now that the 7.5 update, code-named Mango, has been released? Did Microsoft listen to its users? Is the update worth the effort? Or is just so much digital fluff? In this article we'll take a look at how Windows Phone 7.5 performs on HTC's HD7, a phone which shipped originally with Windows Phone 7.
