Last Wednesday the  Bluetooth Special Intrest Group said that we could even be seeing devices utilising Bluetooth 4.0 wireless specification later this year! Thanks to lower power requirements of the new standard, many consumer electronics devices like cameras and even watches will now be able to include Bluetooth without a significant battery life footprint.

Microsoft has produced many quality keyboards in the past but Microsoft Arc Wireless Mini Keyboard is the first one that is stylish, compact and most importantly at £31 a very affordable keyboard and Riyad Emeran at TrustedReviews concurs with us. We would just that add that it could make a great HTPC keyboard if it were only feature an integrated touchpad as well.

Everyone is impressed by the power that gaming rigs such as Alienware Aurora ALX delivers but let’s not forget that most users are after basic desktop PC that are small, quite and most importantly affordable. Dell Inspiron 580s Intel Core i3 Slimline Desktop PC aims exactly at those users. Having a few Dell desktop PCs in our office we quite like Dell’s efforts in the desktop area so we were eager to see how their latest slimline PC will perform in test that was put through by J.R. Nelson at DesktopReview. His verdict was Dell Inspiron 580s isn’t the first and only attractive and capable slimline desktop PC but it definitely ticks all the right boxes such as good performance thanks to Intel Core i3, good build quality and very good value.

At HandsOnReviews we love games. Recently we’ve been enjoying Mass Effect 2 so we are always happy when new gaming peripherals are launched. Luke Westaway at Cnet posted a review on the Microsoft SideWinder X4 Gaming Keyboard. He thinks the Microsoft SideWinder X4 will satisfy both gamers and casual users as it offers macro recording system, plenty of customisation while being stylish and practical for casual use as well. He did mention that he would’ve wished for a bit more wrist support though.

Even though Alienware’s notebooks stole most of the thunder at HandsOnReviews that doesn’t mean that its desktop are any less impressive. J.R. Nelson at DesktopReview couldn’t agree with this statement more as he was overly impressed with the Alienware Aurora ALX Intel Core i7 Gaming Desktop. He thinks the Alienware Aurora ALX represents a new face for both Alienware and Dell by brining a more industrially-oriented chassis design then its previous desktop computers and not to mention the performance it delivers with an Intel Core i7-975 Extreme 3.33GHz and 2 x ATI Radeon HD5870 in CrossFire.

Eric Franklin at Cnet posted a review on the Dell UltraSharp U2711 27 inch LCD Monitor. He thinks the Dell UltraSharp U2711 (resolution 2560 x 1440 px) is the LCD monitor you should buy if you have the money (£1,000 to be exact) and even if you don’t you should start saving as it really is outstanding. We will definitely start saving as we love Dell screens. At the moment we have 22 and 24 inch Dell screens and we are very happy with them. More inches more fun.

Forget Apple iPad the Dell Mini 5 Android tablet can even fit in a pocket (OK, a BIG pocket) and guys at Engadget got some hands-on photos and even a video. Hit the link to view the gallery.

Another post by Asus today but not for a notebook but for an all-in-one desktop PC Asus EeeTop ET2203. J.R. Nelson at DesktopReview tested it and came to conclusion that the ASUS EeeTop ET2203 is definitely solid all-in-one desktop PC with a few very appealing features such as full HD 21.6 inch screen (1920 x 1080 px), solid performance, HDMI video input and also decent set of integrated speakers. The bundled wireless keyboard and mouse perform very well. So all in all we would say that this is the all-in-one PC.

The fact is that sometimes bigger is better and for desktop screens that is definitely correct. That’s we are always happy when manufacturers release new bigger and better screens. This time was Dell that supplied us with size in form of Dell UltraSharp U2410 24 inch LCD Screen. Ardjuna Seghers at TrustedReviews posted a review on Dell UltraSharp U2410. He thinks that while Dell UltraSharp U2410 is not a perfect screen if offers great features such as attractive design, fantastic ergonomics and overall impressive image quality. This screen will appeal to anyone whether a gamer, graphics designer or anyone less that can appreciate a good screen. It also represents excellent value as at the moment it retails only at £431.

After loads of rumors, true and fake leaks Apple introduced into the world its latest product the Apple iPad Table. We will not write about much as other websites have got it all covered so we give you a roundup of articles, news, hands-on treatments and previews insted.

Personally we don’t get the Apple iPad at all. It can do what an iPhone can but you can’t carry it in your pocket. It is as big as a netbook but it can’t do half the things a netbook can. If Apple would stick Mac OS X on it then it would make a whole lot of sense. Let us know your thoughts.
