- Review: Sprint Touch Pro and AT&T HTC Fuze Windows Mobile devices
- Last week I was quite excited about the BlackBerry Bold and think it is fantastic piece of hardware and the best BlackBerry device currently available. However, I could not get my Outlook Web Access to work with my work Exchange server and the BlackBerry security settings prevented the connection and...

- Philips 42PFL5603D
- At the Consumer Electronics Show this year we selected the Philips 42PFL5603D as the best product overall because it addressed one big issue with today's flat-panel HDTVs: power consumption. Now that we've tested the "Eco TV," we can confirm that it does indeed use less power than any flat TV...

- SmartLight Automatic Backlight (Mobile)
- Tired of the display backlight going out when you are looking at the screen - e.g. while thinking about the right word for an sms? Wouldn't it be nice if your phone knew when you needed the light and when not? SmartLight does just that: Once you have opened an...

- iPod nano owners complain of high-pitched whining noise
- Back in September a thread was started on the Apple support forum by an iPod nano owner who wanted to know if "a high-pitched whine or buzz that is audible if you hold it close to your ear" is normal for the media player. The answer now seems that...

- JVC LT-32X787
- The most popular size for wide-screen LCD TVs right now is 32 inches diagonal, perhaps because it closely matches the screen real estate of 27-inch, non-wide-screen CRT TVs that many people want to replace. These sets come in numerous prices, brands, and feature sets, and JVC's LT-32X787, with a street...

- Samsung Caliber (U.S. Cellular)
- We've seen plenty of Samsung touch-screen handsets come our way, but not many of them make it to U.S. Cellular, a regional carrier based in Chicago. The only one so far has been the Samsung Delve, which made it to the carrier's lineup late last year. Now another one has...

- HP LP3065 30-inch monitor
- The most appealing selling point of the 30-inch HP LP3065 is its super-high 2,560x1,600 resolution. Gamers with powerful enough video cards to run at that resolution will not be disappointed. With its great color preproduction and wide viewing angles, movies also look great on the large display. Professional graphic artists...

- Nokia 2705 Shade - black (Verizon Wireless)
- Photo gallery:Nokia ShadeMost of Nokia's recent cell phones for the U.S. market haven't been too exciting. Sure, the company gave us the odd Nokia Twist last month, but we're more likely to see functional handsets like AT&T's Nokia Mural 6750. Verizon's new Nokia Shade 2705 certainly is part of that...

- Vizio VF551XVT
- Photo gallery: Vizio VF551XVTWe're willing to bet that when Vizio announced the VF551XVT back in January, plenty of savvy HDTV bargain hunters marked down "June" as the time they'd buy this 55-inch LED-based LCD. Then the company pushed its release back to September. Then it announced that the...

- Verizon Wireless Razzle
- Though we sometimes question the outcome, we do like it when cell phone manufacturers take a different approach to designing a phone so it stands out from the rest. The Verizon Wireless Razzle is certainly one such phone, straddling the line between a messaging phone and a music phone with...

- Samsung Moment (Sprint)
- In case you haven't noticed, the Google Android dam has broken. For almost a year HTC was the only manufacturer to offer handsets with the operating system, but in the past month, Motorola and Samsung almost fell over each other to offer Android smartphones of their own. Moto gave us...

- Apple iMac 27-inch
- If we could, we'd take points away from this iMac simply because by giving it a 27-inch display Apple threatens our livelihood. You don't need our input to simply walk past the 27-inch iMac on a store shelf and recognize that it's the largest all-in-one currently available, and that it...

The NEC has wide viewing angles, a robust and easy-to-use onscreen display, accurate colors, and several useful ergonomic options. However, it only includes DVI,...
