Occasionally, we get to test some pretty suave iPhone apps. We think the ideal iPhone app should: Firstly (and most importantly) be super cool Save you time Be well priced Be easy to use It looks like the developers of the 2 apps we have on test today have similar priorities. We'd like to introduce you to WorldCard Mobile & WorldCard Contacts. These 2 apps tag-team together to produce some pretty clever functionality for business men and women worldwide. In fact, the 2 apps suit ...

Linksys lovers, look away now! Now we've got rid of the Apple haters, we're doing our review of the fantastically awesome AirPort Extreme, by Apple.

I'm a huge fan of Star Trek (Yes, I am a nerd) and when have you ever seen Captain Picard stop to charge his tri-corder? Answer: Never. No ugly cables, no mess, he probably pops it straight onto a WildCharge pad and, hey presto he's charging his tricorder. Fortunately, WildCharge also offer the Charging pad and supporting adapter skins for us mere earth-dwellers too and we've got one to try out on our test iPhone 3GS. Features Compatible with all iPhone models Convenient, wire-free ...

We've been looking at quite a few speaker systems / docks recently - but the Cygnett Maestro has a little secret hidden within that classy design. You see, the Maestro has the ability to run off both mains power and battery (4 x AA's) - making this one very stylish portable music player. The Maestro is rated as "works with iPhone" and "made for iPod" as awarded by Apple. Let's take a closer look at this little stroke of genius. Features Dedicated subwoofer ...

For  bit of a change, we thought we'd take a look at some inspiring Apple set-ups from around the web. Perhaps you'll see something you like and set about incorporating it in your workspace. There's some clever desk and workspace products in there too to add to your office. Enjoy! Ed Nicholas Todd This is my workspace. I built the Shelf myself with a tray inset and planted some wheat grass for a nice color. The shelf is also light from beneath for ...

We love iPhone cases - not least because they stop the pretty chrome Apple on the rear from scratching and scuffing. We've got a bunch of SwitchEasy cases we'll be reviewing over the coming weeks. Today we're looking at a clear, NUDE case. The NUDE case gains its name from they fact the iPhone looks stock even with the case fitted - as it sits in at 0.8mm. Surely, 0.8mm can't offer much protection? Not so! The NUDE is form hugging (sitting ...

Macs exude quality. And quality often comes at a price. Even a mac keyboard can cost $70. Spending all that money on a piece of precision machined aluminum makes you want to keep it clean and grunge free. However, whilst the iMac wireless keyboards are pretty easy to clean, if you get dirt in a MacBook Pro keyboard it's a lot tougher to get it out.

CMM isn't without it's flaws but in our opinion it's the most established Mac cleaner. However, there's a new kid on the block and it's punching way beyond it's weight. Introducing MacKeeper.... It's a little unfair. You see MacKeeper packs so much into it's $39.95 package that all of it's competitors should be quaking. In fact, if ...
