Apple iPhone

First, purchasing is truly on the go -provided you happen have access to a Wi-Fi hotspot. AT&T's maple syrup EDGE network isn't up to the task of downloading 5 MB songs and, frankly, Apple probably protected our sanity by not providing the EDGE option ...

Plug in the iPhone to the computer after your first portable Apple Music Store purchase and iTunes will create a new folder, "Purchased on iPhone". It will automatically become part of your library, even after the iPhone is disconnected

Nokia N800 Internet Tablet

Just to recap, the N800 ($240 to $400 online) is about the size of a pocket address book-2.95 x 5.7 x 0.5 inches, weighing 7.27 ounces. It sports a 4.1-inch wide-format, touch-sensitive screen (800x480 pixels, 65,536 colors), built-in speakers and ...

On the home screen, the contact list appears down the left side. On the right side, you see profile and other information about the selected contact, as well as big call and chat buttons. There are three tabs across the top left: contacts (visible on ...

BlackBerry Curve 8320

Essentially, the 8320 is very similar to the BlackBerry Curve 8300 AT&T Wireless currently offers. However, the 8320, like AT&T's most recent BlackBerry, the 8820, includes Wi-Fi. But unlike with AT&T's Wi-Fi BlackBerry, you can make the most out of ...

T-Mobile sells the 8320 for $249.99 with a two-year contract. Otherwise, it'll set you back $450

Palm Centro

The dual-band CDMA/EV-DO Centro measures 4.2 x 2.1 x 0.7 inches and weighs 4.2 ounces. While this isn't that much smaller than a typical Treo, Centro feels much better in the hand. That's mostly because it sports more of capsule shape and a rounded ...

Palm rates Centro is rated for 3.5 hours of talk time. With average use, we found it lasted for about 3 days between chargings

BLACKBERRY 8820

But with those aspects of the 8820 aside, this is the closest I have been with a real 8800 BlackBerry. I have seen the fake ones they place in the stores, and decided I did not like the keypad

Overall the 8820 is a very solid BlackBerry, especially if you can get by without a camera or if you need Wi-Fi and GPS built in more than a camera

Nokia E65

The $450 (when purchased direct from Nokia - no carrier offers it as of this writing) E65is a quad-band GSM slider-style phone which measures a compact 4.1 x 1.9 x .6 inches and tips the scales at a tick over 4 ounces

The E65 includes a number of voice-enabled features in addition to the customary voice recorder. For example, you can hold down the voice button on the side of the E65 and then speak the name of a contact entry to view or call or an application to ...

Nokia N95

The quad-band GSM N95 also supports data connections via WCDMA/HSDPA, but only the for the 2100 MHz variety used in Europe -for data transmissions in North America networks, this version of the N95 uses EDGE. (As I wrote this, Nokia introduced a ...

That same 3.5 mm jack also supports TV out via an included composite video cable. We had to change the default output from PAL to NTSC before the feature would work properly, and display quality is mediocre at best when viewed on a big screen, but it ...

Nokia N76

See, the N76 isn't supported by any of the US mobile phone companies, so there's no discount for buyers. With the support of a phone company, the N76 could have been an attractive feature-packed value at $50. Instead, it's an underwhelming performer ...

The N76 is an attractive phone, with a decent set of features, but it simply doesn't offer enough to warrant the $500 price tag. Unless you definitely want an unlocked phone with no commitment, you'll find better phones at better values from the ...

Blackberry

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 ...

With Fortte's Dual Design case you get the high points of both an open face case and a flip or book-style case, all without the low points of each. The build is of a high quality and the color choices, even with the extra doe you have to layout for ...

HTC Mogul / Sprint Mogul aka PPC6800

The Sprint Mogul in brushed silver weighs in at 6.5 ounces and measures 4.3 x 2.3 x 0.7 inches, which makes it just a sliver heavier and taller than its predecessor, the PPC-6700, and just slightly thinner. It also takes the important step of making ...

The sliding mechanism for the keyboard is smooth and makes a satisfying "click" when it snaps into place, and the screen switches automatically from portrait to landscape mode
