LG Decoy
Listen up, slide-phone fans. After a delay, LG is finally releasing its “Decoy.” The LG Decoy VX610 slide phone will most likely replace the VX8550 Chocolate.
New features include four standard buttons (instead of the touch sensitive buttons) that surround a new trackball d-pad, similar to the one used in Blackberry devices. The slide feature works just like the previous models. Turn the phone over, however, and you see its most unique and handy feature – a removable Bluetooth earpiece.

Review - LG GGW-H20L Blu-ray rewriter
I thought it was about time to upgrade the optical drive in my PC to a Blu-ray one, so after a little research and a bit of reading I ordered myself an LG GGW-H20L Blu-ray rewriter.
In the box came the Blu-ray drive, which also features a HD DVD-Rom so you can play back you HD Dvd’s as well, a SATA cable, and a software disk which features PowerDVD, Power Producer, Power2Go with Lightscribe, BD adviser and Power Backup, not a bad set of software.
I have to admit, overall I am quite impressed with this drive, after a few tests burning a few DVD’s and CD’s it performed really well, and it is great for playing back Blu-Ray movies.
The price isn’t too bad either, the cheapest I could find online was just under £165 delivered.
