Special menus explain what each of the camera’s four scene modes do, each selected using a small dial positioned to fall nicely under the right thumb. The scene modes on offer are portrait, self-portrait, night scene and landscape. You also get a fun movie mode offering 320 x 240 movies with sound and recording to the limit of the xD Picture card storage. Exposure control is run through an accomplished Program Auto exposure mode that provides true point-and-shoot ease of use.
PictBridge support allows shots to printed off directly from any compatible printers without the need to transfer pictures to a PC first.
The 3x zoom lens has an unremarkable 38-114mm focal range, but it’s more than adequate for this camera’s typical user and has a respectably fast F2.9 maximum aperture. The C-370’s stand-out feature has to be its great 2cm macro mode. It works well and provides stunning, frame-filling close-up capability.
However, there are a couple of problems. The most irritating is the lack of a custom set-up feature that allows you to set the camera for repeated use within the same mode; it always ‘resets’ back to the default settings. This means you have to repeatedly set the camera up again, each time you turn it on - even the quality setting isn’t retained.
The box that the MX Duo comes in seems fairly heavy at first; surely a keyboard and a mouse can’t weigh this much? The package design is quite pleasing to the eye, giving you the necessary details to discern the specifications briefly.
Upon opening the box, you have another box, and upon opening this, you can pull out all the components for your wireless setup. This includes the keyboard, mouse, charging station, AC/DC adaptor, keyboard wrist rest, USB to PS/2 converter, the batteries, and the manual/software.
The way the contents are packed into the box is perfect, and provides adequate protection during transit/delivery, just in case there’s a few bumps and knocks along the way.

Look, no wires! iPod users can now experience a new level of freedom - a wireless headphone - designed to enhance your lifestyle ever farther than before.Logitech´s Wireless Headphones for iPod use advanced Bluetooth frequency hopping technology for interference free, crystal clear audio. Digital wireless technology provides over 30 feet of range, and rechargeable batteries can play up to eight hours per charge. These headphones include a wireless adapter that snaps onto your iPod or iPod mini, plus integrated controls so you can adjust the volume, play, pause, or select tracks without touching your iPod. This is not an earbud phone but is an over-the-ear design with a stressless behind-the-neck band. It offers superior support in actively mobile situations yet is extremely lightweight. The power of wireless audio is in your control as you hear your favorite tracks through these wireless headphones, enabling you to do whatever and whenever - as you wish. Integrated Volume and iPod Wheel-like Controls let you adjust the volume, select, play and pause tracks without ever reaching for your iPod The wireless adapter connects directly to your iPod for Interference-free digital sound at a range of up to 30 feet.
At just 3.2 ounces, the surprisingly light headset was comfortable throughout mostly sedentary, multihour listening sessions and didn’t dislodge once during a 40-minute jog. However, you should note that the headband is not adjustable, so the ‘phones won’t fit everyone as well as they fit us. Although you wouldn’t want to regularly run while holding the bulky iPod, the wireless capability lets you stash it in a treadmill’s accessory holder or even leave it in a nearby gym bag during your workout. The headset is appropriately easy to operate without requiring you to look at its controls. The outside of the right earpiece hosts four keys (volume up, volume down, next track, and previous track) that are intuitively arrayed around a large, circular play/pause button, and the volume controls have slight indents so that you can distinguish them by feel from the track-skip keys.
Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries power the headphones and the transmitter, so you don’t have to worry about any drain on your iPod’s battery. The charger cable splits into two plugs to simultaneously accomodate both components. Because the device’s battery life is rated at up to 8 hours, the ‘phones nonremovable cells are likely to require more frequent recharging than your iPod. That said, in informal testing, we got nearly 9 hours of continuous playback from new, fully charged batteries. A status LED located on the play/pause button blinks red when the headphones’ cell runs low, but it’s less useful than mobile phone-style battery-status bars would be. The batteries fully recharge in around 2.5 hours.
