The Beatles: Rock Band

The Beatles: Rock Band

By Brian Ekberg

the beatles: rock band review: After a string of disappointing Guitar Hero franchises, Harmonix looks to reinvent the "band-based" rhythm game genre with The Beatles: Rock Band.

CNET Australia is your best destination for Australian tech reviews and ratings, videos, news, buying guides, help and how-to and free downloads.

Motion controls work really well, Great use of the Wii Balance Board, Pleasing, cartoony visuals, Wiping out is appropriately painful, Accessible and enjoyable multiplayer, Not enough variety in the objective types, No character customisation options ;

Garmin Nuvi 265T / 265WT

garmin nuvi 265wt review: With its relatively elegant traffic antenna and simple-to-use interface, the Garmin Nuvi 265WT makes a good case for itself.

Relatively neat traffic antenna, Easy to use, A QWERTY keyboard. Hurrah!

Speed camera warnings are a step back, Text-to-speech is not quite Australian

With its relatively elegant traffic antenna and simple-to-use interface, the Garmin Nuvi 265WT makes a good case for itself.

Uniden Trax 350

uniden trax 350 review: Available only through Harvey Norman stores, the Trax 350 has a 3.5-inch screen, 3D terrain, 3D landmarks and safety camera locations. It misses out on the Bluetooth hands-free of the 353 model, which is available everywhere.

Speed zone nagging, Compact size

No AC charger, Screen is slightly cluttered, Speed zone nagging is often wrong

The Trax 350 is a budget-level GPS with good performance. It won't truly excite you, but it gets the job done.

Navman S35

Navman S35 Preview - GPS

By Derek Fung

navman s35 review: It looks like last year's S30, except it's been given the latest Whereis maps and spoken street names. Unlike the S-Series Platinum models, the S35 soldiers on with the old interface, which is now shared with the Mio Moov range.

Garmin Nuvi 260 / 260W

garmin nuvi 260 review: As per the 260W — an easy to use GPS, with great verbal speed and red light camera warnings which, unfortunately, aren't installed by default — but narrower and AU$100 cheaper.

Simple interface with big icons, Compact windshield mount, Great verbal speed and red light camera warnings...

...but you'll have to wrestle demonic overlord of the internet first, Slow start-up time

As per the 260W - an easy to use GPS, with great verbal speed and red light camera warnings which, unfortunately, aren't installed by default - but narrower and AU$100 cheaper.

Navigon 2150

navigon 2150max review: This is a great GPS if you have a piano black fetish. For the rest of us, it's just OK. Its good points (Aussie-capable text-to-speech, junction view, extended lane info) are balanced out by an inconsistent interface and ...

Handles Aussie street names pretty grouse, Junction view and lane info, Lots of piano black, Simple interface design...

...that's unfortunately rather inconsistent, Lots of piano black, QWERTY keyboard, wherefore art thou?, Chunky, clunky windshield mount

This is a great GPS if you have a piano black fetish. For the rest of us, it's just OK. Its good points (Aussie-capable text-to-speech, junction view, extended lane info) are balanced out by an inconsistent interface and unfriendly windshield mount.

Garmin Nuvi 760

garmin nuvi 760 review: If you're in the market for a GPS navigator with an FM transmitter and MP3 playback, not to mention excellent safety camera warnings, the Nuvi 760 is the one to go for.

Good FM transmitter with MP3 playback, Simple interface with big icons, Compact windshield mount, Great verbal speed and red light camera warnings...

...but you'll have to rummage through the internet trough first, Streets drop in and out at normal map detail

If you're in the market for a GPS navigator with an FM transmitter and MP3 playback, not to mention excellent safety camera warnings, the Nuvi 760 is the pick of the moment.

TomTom ONE V 4

tomtom one (4th generation) review: Both the One and XL are great GPS units: compact, correctable, good looking and easy to use. At AU$349 we'd pick the narrow screen One every time though.

The diet has made it slim and sexy, Easy-to-use interface, Make and share map corrections, Folds up compactly, Better value than the widescreen XL

No Bluetooth hands-free, Routing engine addicted to main roads

Both the One and XL are great GPS units: compact, correctable, good looking and easy to use. At RRP we'd pick the narrow screen One every time though.
