If the Digital Radio Working Group has its way we’ll all need to chuck out our lovely FM receivers and invest in DAB equipment before too long. Good news, then, for PURE Digital, a DAB favourite of ours. And it’s just released its new One Mini — an affordable and portable version of the popular PURE One. It’s a little …

It was chucking it down on Sunday, so I looked for a TV programme to buy on the iTunes store and came across this picture. Can you spot what’s wrong with the A-Team crew? It took me a few moments to realise that someone, be it Apple, Universal or a practical joker, has decided to flex their Photoshop muscles and …

Let’s not beat around the bush: TVs are great, but for the proper movie experience you need a projector, in a dark room, with an epic surround-sound system. Because that’s the way to enjoy a really good film — it’s even the way to enjoy a bad film. The problem is that projectors are rarely cheap, so when we heard …

If you’ve been tramping around the Internet much recently you will almost certainly have seen adverts about a hit new TV show called Scarlet. It turns out that there was no hit show at all, and it was all a big publicity stunt for a new LG TV ‘series’ (meaning range) called Scarlet. There was even a party at some …

LG’s ‘Scarlet’ range of televisions are causing quite a buzz. Is it the massive marketing campaign? Is it the intrusive red colour that the back of the TV is finished in? Could it in fact be the glowing red/white hole on the front of the TV? Whatever it is, people want to know about this TV, so we got LG …

Crave officially loves Will Smith. Our MP3 man Nate Lanxon loves him so much he actually claims to have previously been him. No, we don’t know what that means either. But as you can imagine, when Sony sent us Men in Black on Blu-ray, we were delighted. And not only because we got to watch the Family Guy parody of …

In Japan, Hitachi’s range of ultra-thin TVs are known as ‘Wooo’, which is pretty vanilla from the country that brought us the Nintendo Wii and tentacle-based pornography. Name aside, we’ve been excited about the inch-and-a-half-thick Hitachis since we first saw them at CES 2008, so when the company offered to let us get our sweaty hands on the 42-inch model …

You know how rubbish TV can be, right? If you think you can do better, now’s your chance — Ofcom has announced that it’s finally putting the analogue TV spectrum up for sale. We’ve known about this for some time now, but we’re only now learning about dates and how much is available. There’s 128MHz on offer, and each individual …

Not so long ago, Panasonic was telling us all that plasma was the future and we’d do well to remember that. The problem for Panny is that as good as plasma is for honking great TVs, it’s utterly hopeless for smaller screens. As the most popular screen sizes these days hover around the 32- and 37-inch marks, this year Panasonic …
