A new file area for the Philips Pronto Professional is in the works; if you would like to submit content please use the upload form. Also, I'm hoping to be able to get all currently enqueued files up and available in the file areas over the holidays.

Two reviews now available for the economical Sony RM-VL600 learning universal remote and its sibling, the RM-V310 preprogrammed remote. Read more...

Our listing of unscrambled Rogers digital cable channels has been moved from its original forum posting to a new page here. This page covers free QAM channels that can be received in the Toronto, Ontario area by Rogers customers.

I'm pleased to report that all of the file area submissions that had built up over the weekend have now been put online. Also, as the new forum will be going live very soon, please send me any feedback you have on it! (See July 24th news for details.)

Details on the latest site changes; submissions uploaded to the file areas; teaser number 2 for the Philips Pronto Professional. Read more...

My work for the past three or four weeks has been converting all of our remote control and DVD reviews to the new layout. After dealing with hundreds of pages, sore fingers - and adding several new shiny spots to my keyboard - I've finally finished and uploaded the results! I'm also pleased to report that the over 2000 reviews in our User Reviews section are also now sporting the new look. Still more pages to go, though...

Someone pointed out that Internet Explorer's default font settings were doing strange things in the new design with words such as "willing", where the "illi" all ran together into a difficult-to-read mess. So, I've switched to a different font, another of the default Windows typefaces that's popular for websites. This font is a little "wider" and not quite as much to my liking, but in testing it always rendered completely legibly... and isn't that what counts? Let me know what you think.

As you may have noticed I've just implemented a whole new look for the news section. Every article has been ported to the new design - all 485 pages of them! I hope you like it, especially since it will allow me to more easily post the latest site updates all the time like I used to, in addition to the major news articles which will appear on the main What's New bar to the left.
