Adobe Photoshop Elements 10
Only part of Adobe’s brief for Photoshop Elements is producing fancy photos. The other part is organising and distributing them through a variety of media conduits. Elements 10 shows Adobe’s concentration on the second part of this brief, though there are some interesting changes to its editing features, too. When the program starts, you’re asked…
TomTom Western Europe for iPhone
This turn-by-turn app, from the brand that popularised the sat nav, is the most expensive around by a country mile. The cynic in us thinks this might be because TomTom can see the lucrative market for GPS hardware disappearing before its very eyes, as touchscreen smartphones become dominant.

HP ENVY 110 all-in-one printer
HP’s new ENVY 110 multifunction inkjet printer comes with a good-looking, slimline design using high grade materials, which is rare on printers – but the price tag is high.

Generations is now the fourth expansion pack for version 3, following on the heels of Ambitions, Late Night and…

HTC ChaCha
The HTC ChaCha is one of several Android-based smartphones we’ve seen with front facing keyboards. They generally suffer because their screens are small, and Android has been squished up to fit into them. Android was made for tall narrow screens, and isn’t suited to the squat format this style of handset has. However, HTC has…
