Complete waste of time. Attractive front page with links to HTML or PDF files. What you end up with is tiny, illegible text or, after zooming in, a fragment of the original page that you are forced to scroll around much in the same way you do when trying to read PDF files on an old Kindle.

Okay, I got it free on Amazon's 'App of the Day' deal. That said, it would be difficult for me to complain about the quality of the game in value for money terms. It is a simply case of giving it a whirl and then sending it off to the cloud, never to be seen again, if it's pants.

Well, Voxel Invaders is still on my S3 and has been enjoyed by me and a number of my friends, who also remember 'Space Invaders'.

And, no, it's not just a 'reboot' of the old classic. The game, whilst uncannily similar, brings not just a fresh new look, but also easy to understand and use game controls, as well as an exciting challenge that keeps you gunning for more.

I haven't checked, but I'm guessing the full price is 69 pence - about a third of a cup of coffee - so even if you do only play it a couple of hours over the course of a week's commuting, I'd still say it's more than worth the pennies and a genuine bargain for free!

Plus:
- Well designed
- Easy to use
- Very comprehensive
- Absolutely free

Minus:
-Does not work offline, but, hey, what do you want for nothing?

I'm relatively new to Android and have just moved from a budget tablet to an S3 phone. Even on relatively sluggish tablet, this attractive app is reasonable nimble on its feet and a breeze to use.

I've also 'purchased' (free app of the day) Jamie's 20 Minute Meals and although his app is very slick and includes some professionally produced videos as well as some excellent recipes, I find BigOven more comprehensive and therefore useful if I'm looking for some fresh ideas in the kitchen.

If you love cooking, or if you just love eating, stop reading this drivel immediately and start using this absolute gem of an app!

As usual, arrived very promptly and well packaged. Despite the other reviews here, I found it extremely easy to unpack without damage to the either myself or the Sandisk Ultra 64g card.

Pros:

Loads of space to store photos, video and music. Almost 80gb - twice the capacity of my old laptop! Only been using it for a short while, but speed is not an issue as there is no discernible difference when accessing files. Alas, no way of freeing up space on the S3 by moving apps to the card without actually rooting the phone and, thus, invalidating the warranty. Still, this has nothing to do with the card itself and does not detract from the bonus of being able to pick up 59gb of extra storage for just shy of £40.

Cons:

Just the one so far. When I first bought the item, I popped it straight into the phone where it was recognised immediately with a pre-formatted capacity of some 59gb. However, when I tried to use the space, by copying files across to the card...nothing! It was like it just wasn't there. A quick visit to the forums and, of course, a perusal of the reviews on Amazon, and I had the solution. The card has to be formatted as fat32 to be recognised by the phone and by Windows. This applies whether or not you are using a usb connection or copying files using Airdroid or the like. You are also obliged to obtain a third party piece of software to carry out the format, but luckily this is available for free through Downloads.com. Once you know how, the process is very simple and took no time at all to complete. Result happiness!

In conclusion, 32g cards can be had from as little as £12, however, as the phone can only accommodate one memory card, I think it is worth the small premium to have the extra capacity if you think you will need it.

I knew nothing about this game before purchasing, but as it was entirely free from Amazon Apps, I decided to give it a go.

Well, not really expecting a lot, I am amazed at just how much fun it really is. I have to agree with my six year old niece who tells me that the game is 'so addictive'.

Normally, it is my partner, who has turned my tablet into an 'Angry Birds machine', that spends ages laughing and grunting at Birds in Space, but now, it is finally my turn to have a go at whiling away the hours on the bus, train, or in a queue with this absorbing little gem.

Even if you are not fortunate enough to stumble upon Bag it! for free, it is well worth the modest purchase price and runs like a dream on my 'ultra-low-end' Cyclone Astro+7 Android Tablet.

Remember, have fun!

Okay, I'm not going to add to the burgeoning list of exhaustive reviews detailing the various merits of the latest incarnation of the Kindle ereader. Well, actually I am, but not in an exhaustive, blow-for-blow manner...

Firstly, let me say that I have been on the lookout for an ereader for quite some time but have always held back as I felt the technology had not quite come of age. Well, with the release of the latest Amazon Kindle all that has changed.

Quite honestly, despite reading several reviews, both here and in computer magazines, lauding the paper-like qualities of the latest e-ink technology employed by the Kindle 3, I was completely amazed: it really does look like print on a page! It is an absolute doddle to use - even if you cannot be bothered to read the manual - and you will find yourself immersed in the latest best-seller or one of the many thousand absolutely free classics in no time.

However, as I said, I am not here to add to the obvious: the Kindle is a superb piece of kit at an absolutely fantastic price!

Since purchasing the above, I have spent many hours exploring the various functions, short-cut keys and download options and, of course, reading novels. I have also spent many hours trumpeting the virtues of the the Amazon Kindle to anyone who would listen. It is extremely easy to use, very modestly priced and supported by the daddy of online booksellers, aka Amazon.

However, what has impressed me most about the Kindle has to be the after-sales service...

Having spent several weeks boring anyone who'd listen with the indisputable merits of the Kindle - my 72 year old, Luddite mother is loving the large text and the lightness of the actual reader - you can imagine how disappointed I was at its sudden death. Yes, after less than a month, I could no longer connect to the internet and could no longer read any of the books resident on the device.

Having dealt with the hapless Microsoft Zune and the absolutely dreadful Dell helplines in the past, I was prepared for the worst when I contacted Amazon's dedicated email help system. Well, I need not have worried.

Amazon were absolutely fabulous. I sent a single, short email message to Amazon in which I explained the problem and chose the most appropriate description of the fault from the drop-down menu, whereupon I was prompted by a request for my telephone number and a dialogue letting me know that I would receive a call from the Kindle support team. I had barely read the dialogue when my phone began to ring. After a refreshingly short conversation in which I established who I was and the fault with the Kindle, I had my Kindle up and running again like new and was the proud recipient of the latest software update of the device.

Well done Amazon! Great device and even better support.

A few months ago I purchased two Sandisk Extreme III 4gig cards for my DSLR. I already own a fair smattering of SD cards and two Extreme III 2gig cards, so at £12.99 each with free postage, it did not take a great deal of persuasion for me to slip my debit card out of the old Billabong and make a purchase.

As stated in my original review of the Sandisk Extreme III 2gig cards I bought just shy of two years ago, I was extremely pleased with the performance boost over the sluggish 1gig MMC supplied with my Samsung GX10 DSLR (excellent camera btw) and still am.

Well, I still own the cards and the camera and both have served me flawlessly. I have, since then, moved on to my third compact - Lumix, Pentax,Lumix - and trashed a few other brands on the way. Okay, the Pentax landed in a piping hot mug of coffee along with the 2gig Tevion card. Believe it or not, it actually took me a couple of minutes to realise what had happened - just think children and you'll understand. Remarkably, the camera sort of survived the ordeal, but the card was toast. To be honest, I rather thought it would be the other way about, but I digress...

In the Lumix, the Extreme III is amazing! Absolutely no lag when shooting continuous and no juddering when shooting an extremely useful 40 minutes of divx video. Okay,let's get one thing straight; it's not exactly broadcast quality, but you'd be surprised how much easier it is to get people to relax and act naturally when you are not pointing a giant video camera at them.

With the DSLR, the 4gig Extreme III is, not surprisingly, a superb performer. Of course, there will always be a moment where the buffer kicks in shooting RAW in continuous mode - usually after between 7-10 shots - but with the Extreme III it is only a moment. Yes, I've read the reviews stating that the speed of the card only really matters when you are actually uploading images to your laptop, but we are talking about hundreds of fairly large images, so even if we accept the above; speed is still very much a factor.

Having recently made the transition to shooting exclusively in RAW (DNG) with the DSLR, I really needed the extra storage afforded by the larger capacity cards. With the average DNG file weighing in at 17meg, I often reverted to shooting in jpeg for fear of running out of space.

I can just hear the collective howl of censure from the film diehards, who feel we still ought to content ourselves with 36 shots per roll and then wait a fortnight for the results. Are we not constantly reminded that being able to frame and shoot with gay abandon (think Edith Blyton here) is one of the huge advantages digital offers over traditional film? Is this not also one of the advantages professionals have always had over talented amateurs?

Okay, I'd be the first to admit that some enthusiasts get a bit ahead of themselves at the beginning and end up with a hard drive full of digital dross, aka, intellectually-copyrighted artwork; sometimes even spending hours watermarking and uploading appallingly composed, blurry images that look no better than the drunken snaps produced by low-res' mobile phones at a dimly-lit hen-night.

Naturally, there can be no substitute for the talent, training, equipment and experience that a professional brings to a shoot, but at least the amateur now has the same amount of ammo. Or do you fondly imagine that the professional goes home with 2000 keepers and hasn't the foggiest where to find the delete key?

If you are able to move your feet - and the rest of your body - and accept that 50 identical, rubbish shots are, well, at least 49 too many, then you too will benefit from the advantages shooting in raw brings without having to worry about WB or running out of space. Follow suit and make a purchase of at least one of these excellent cards.

Definitely another unreserved thumbs up for Sandisk.

I recently purchased a Samsung GX10 DSLR which came with a rather lacklustre 1gig MMC card. At 17meg a pop shooting in raw (Adobe DNG), I soon realised that I would need a couple of spares. To be honest, I only noticed how slow the supplied card was when I started to use my old generic SD card, which was, to say the least, significantly faster. Having ploughed through endless magazine articles and user reviews, I finally decided to buy the Sandisk III Extreme. As I have just spent £600 on a camera it seemed a bit churlish to scrimp on memory.

The Sandisk III Extreme is an absolutely excellent card. It is super fast, comes with useful file recovery software, a travel case and a lifetime warranty. It really comes into its own in burst mode where there is now hardly any lag between the buffer filling and the files writing to the card. I can see why professional photographers would choose this brand over others. I even noticed a difference in my Lumix compact. In movie mode, it breezed through shooting and playback. Top marks to Sandisk for producing a fantastic memory card.

Naturally Amazon was my first port of call and at £16.99, I decided to buy two. Well, I'd only be wasting money on postage otherwise: Or so I thought.

Sadly, Amazon is not actually the vendor. When you try to purchase the item, you are redirected to `megamemory' or `jollyhappymem' and so on. At £9 postage - and this is in the UK - I'd be jolly happy too! I mean, seriously? I have just sent a 15kg parcel from Birmingham to Glasgow for £13.77. But wait, there is more. If you buy two, `jollyshamelessmem' just go ahead and double the postage!

So, whilst I can unreservedly recommend the Sandisk card, there is a caveat: shop around!
