I recently included the Motorola DEXT in a round up of all the new Google Android phones, and I've finally managed to get my hands on one to test! Based on looks alone, I'm impressed. The phone is smaller and slimmer than the iPhone, its biggest competitor, and the slide aspect gives you access … [Read more...]
Dork Review: Alcatel OT-708 touchscreen phone
Browsing through our other reviews, you might be a little surprised to see an Alcatel phone review. Traditionally, this brand of phone is seated at the low budget end of the market. Basic features for a basic price. Now though, Alcatel are pushing themselves into the high tech market. The … [Read more...]
Dork Review: Krups Dolce Gusto
I have a feeling that most of us, given the choice, would rather pay through the nose to pick up a frothy coffee from one of the coffee shops that dominate the high street, rather than resorting to coffee granules and a bit of hot water at home. It's just a little bit more decadent and a hell of … [Read more...]
Stocking Fillers: Novelty Speakers for your iPod
Everyone and his gran seems to have an iPhone/iPod/MP3 player these days, which makes it a hell of a lot easier for you to find a suitable present. A set of portable speakers are small enough to fit in most stockings, and cheap enough to fit most budgets. The Rockstar from Urbanz (£17.99) … [Read more...]

The iPod docking station looks similar to a lot of the other docking stations on the market, but looks are where … [Read more...]
Dork Review: Dishy iPhone cooking app
Catering for a dinner party has got to be up there on the stress scale with organising a wedding or a surprise birthday party. We've all seen the Come Dine With Me episodes, where the host cries/gets drunk/screams at her guests when the meal falls to pieces. Cooking for a group of people, … [Read more...]
Dork Review: Tefal VitaCuisine
Ah winter! How you tempt me with your takeaways, roast dinners and sticky toffee puddings. Unfortunately, your chilly winds and drizzly rain mean the only exercise my jogging bottoms are getting is getting up off the sofa. Time to start consuming something a little healthier. An easy way to … [Read more...]
Dork Review: Clarisonic skin therapy system
Reviewing the Neutrogena Wave recently, I realised that while I might not be a big fan of the product in question, I do like the concept. I was approached to test the Clarisonic Plus Skin Care System & Spot Therapy Kit, which works on the face and body. A little more interesting than the … [Read more...]
