"What exactly does the iPhone do?" she asked

On the other hand, I am responsible for running a number of Web sites and performing a good bit of server administration, so I'm extremely interested in how effectively (and securely) the iPhone 3G will let me do those sorts of tasks. I also get ...

Smaller than a notebook, yet bulkier than a cell phone, the N810 weighs 7.2 ounces and measures 2.8- x 5- x 0.5-inches. That makes it too large for pocket travel yet easy to throw in any bag. The N810 works alongside your phone, since it can connect ...

The N810 offers a 4.1-inch diagonal QVGA touch screen, which is big and bright in use. Viewing Web pages through the included browser is a lot easier than with a smartphone

We particularly like the weather icon, which brings up current info for the locale you specify and has an arrow that allows you to bring in the multi-day forecast. The touch screen is satisfyingly responsive to a finger, but a stylus, conveniently ...

To pick up the phone when it's ringing, you have the choice of using the green phone button (the tactile option), or touching the Answer button on the screen. When dialing a new number, you touch it in on the keypad, then press the green button to ...

The SCH-i760 is a capable update to the i730. It's flexible and ready to work however you like: there's a numeric keyboard on the front for quick dialing, a touch-screen, and a side-slide keyboard (slide it out and the phone automatically goes into ...

The i760 is a phone that doesn't say no, with its robust list of features. We enjoyed fast surfing and e-mail downloading in our testing, using either the EV-DO support or connecting to a home Wi-Fi network

Unlike the 8100, the new ones have microSD slots on the left side, easily accessible by the fragile slide-out trapdoor. They also have a few more pictures on the keypad, making more obvious features that did exist on the original

As for whether to make the move from Windows Mobile to a BlackBerry-we don't feel either platform makes a strong enough case to lure users from one to the other. The myriad differences will still attract different people to each

The base price of this case is $39.99 in black with either a black removable swivel clip or a removable low profile ratchet clip. Of course, I wouldn't settle for Black when I can pick from so many colors, even though they'll set you back an ...

Given a new color scheme and a slightly reduced size, it feels fun again. If the developers could do something about its poor e-mail and lack of Wi-Fi support, we'd be ready to rave about it.

Both sport a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, meaning you really can do just about everything on both of them. But the XV6800's larger display-2.8 inches versus 2.4 inches-does make document and picture viewing easier.

Its slide-out keyboard does enhance usefulness, though it is rather small. The keyboard features two menu buttons and just a few other keys beyond the alphabet (and corresponding numbers and symbols available using the Function key)

The partners have been working together on Instinct for the last nine months, according to Sprint's director of product commercialization David Owens, with whom SmartPhoneToday had a chance to speak with at CTIA.

The integration of haptic vibration feedback—Samsung was one of the first OEM's to adopt haptics in its phones—courtesy of technology from a company called Immersion, is a nice touch for Instinct. When I tested the Instinct's virtual keyboard, for ...

Like it's predecessor, it's a powerhouse of a smartphone, combining a big screen, audio and video playback, a fantastic camera, integrated GPS, Bluetooth, and WiFi. This improved version also adds 3G support, more memory, and better battery life.

Couldn't one of the carriers pick up a great phone like this? Without that support, you can only buy it unlocked for $699.
