- 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...

- BenQ V2400 Eco
- With the Samsung SyncMaster XL2370 ($300) costing $50 less than the BenQ, there is simply no good reason to purchase V2400 Eco. Overall, the Samsung monitor has better performance, facilitated by its wider viewing angle and brighter screen. The BenQ gets points for its unique, stark white aesthetic and the...

- LG 32LH20
- Photo gallery: LG LH20 seriesWe can't fault the LG LH20 series for trying. The company's least-expensive lineup of LCDs for 2009 offers more features than its competition, including the only USB port for digital photos and by far the best selection of picture adjustments. All of those tweaks...

- Sony FWD-40LX2F/B
- Sony Makes a HORRIBLE commercial productI currently work for KCI Kansas City Airport and we have over 100 of these monitors. 30+ of them are burning out after only a year, and the remaining are starting to burn out. Sony says that the backlight/lcd is not covered under...

- ViewSonic VP2365wb
- The ViewSonic VP2365wb can be found online for about $350. For that price, you get a 23-inch E-IPS monitor with plenty of ergonomic options, five USB ports, and good performance. The performance would be better if it wasn't hampered by low brightness, unfortunately. Also, the display has a chintzy-feeling chassis,...

- Samsung Convoy SCH-U640 (Verizon Wireless)
- Photo gallery:Samsung ConvoyEditors' note: This review originally reported that the Convoy does not support Verizon's push-to-talk network. In fact, the phone does support the service.

- Vizio VO320E
- Photo gallery: Vizio VO320EVizio chose to adorn its VO320E 32-inch LCD with claims of environmental consciousness, saying the little set exceeds Energy Star guidelines by 15 percent. But that's not a very high standard, and according to our tests the Vizio, while definitely no power hog, sips just...

- Toshiba 32AV502U
- Photo gallery: Toshiba AV502U seriesWhen we say the Toshiba AV502U series can produce relatively deep black levels, the key word is "relatively." It's perhaps more accurate to say that its shade of black outdoes most other less-expensive, lower resolution small-screened LCDs we've seen by a narrow margin. It...

- Samsung Mythic SGH-A897 (AT&T)
- Even though AT&T launched its live mobile TV service more than a year ago, but few support it-- the last one we saw was the Samsung Eternity, which was released in October 2008. Now it seems that AT&T may be looking to breathe fresh life to the service by releasing...

- About $600 for the Dell UltraSharp U2410 gets you a 24-inch, H-IPS monitor with great performance in games and movies, a host of connection options and ergonomic features, and a robust OSD. Unfortunately, its RGB presets are marred by dithering when viewing dark gray images and the screen has a...

- Cricket Captr
- Though touch-screen multimedia handsets and complicated smartphones are common these days, that doesn't mean there isn't a market for entry-level phones. The Cricket Captr is one such handset, with basic features and only a VGA camera. The photo quality isn't too good, but if all you want is a phone...
