  • Parrot AR.Drone

    08 Jan 2010 3:53 PM

    This iPhone-controlled remote helicopter might be the coolest thing we've seen — it's certainly one of the coolest things at CES 2010.

  • Garmin Nuvi 1390

    06 Nov 2009 3:40 PM

    It mightn't offer the bigger bang for buck, but the 1390 is a solid and dependable choice. We particularly like its comprehensive lane guidance and easy-to-use interface.

    TomTom XL 340

    29 May 2009 3:20 PM

    Bedecked in black and furnished with IQ Routes, a new faster, snazzier interface and lane guidance, the XL 340 is identical to the One 140 except, you guessed it, it has a wider 4.3-inch screen.

    Garmin Nuvi 1390T

    01 Dec 2009 5:30 PM

    There's nothing particularly flash about it, but the 1390T is a solid and dependable choice, with traffic, lane guidance, Aussie and NZ maps, and Bluetooth hands-free amongst its features.

    Specs: 4.3 inch, Bluetooth , Yes , Yes

  • Navman MY50T

    14 Aug 2009 2:56 PM

    Step up to the MY50T and you'll get a larger than normal 4.7-inch touchscreen, traffic messaging with a lifetime Suna subscription, and Google or TrueLocal searches via a Bluetooth internet connection.

  • TomTom One 140

    07 Jul 2009 5:04 PM

    Same, same but slightly better than before. Quicker responses and lane guidance justify slight premium over fourth-gen One.

    Toyota Camry Hybrid (2010)

    11 Mar 2009 4:06 PM

    Previewed with a coat of brilliant paint, a dash of blingy wheel action and a sprinkle of leather fantasy at Melbourne this year, the hybrid Camry is due on sale in 2010.

    Specs: petrol , Yes

    Navman MY55T

    29 Jun 2009 5:22 PM

    Just like the 4.7-inch MY50T, but with added goodness in the form of Bluetooth hands-free, more memory, an FM transmitter, 3D landmarks and a higher capacity battery.

    Specs: GPS navigation device , 4.7 inch, Yes , Yes

  • Ford Fiesta Econetic

    20 Oct 2009 2:51 PM

    Hold the headlines! The new Fiesta Econetic bests the Prius in the fuel economy stakes, while also being priced some AU$15k less.

  • Garmin ecoRoute HD wireless dongle

    07 Jan 2010 12:31 PM

    No word yet on Australian availability, but Garmin's ecoRoute HD dongle and firmware looks like good value for eco-champs and car geeks.
