- Verizon Wireless USB760 modem
- Back in April, we took a look at the T-Mobile WebConnect USB Laptop Stick. It was T-Mobile's first 3G cellular modem, but these devices aren't new. In fact, T-Mobile's the last of the major carriers as AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon Wireless have had mobile broadband products for some time now,...

- Gauging the ThinkPad: Before (IBM) and after (Lenovo)
- Has Lenovo lost whatever mojo the ThinkPad had? That simple question raised a lot of discussion at TechRepublic and it's worth pondering. The problem: Gauging Lenovo's performance depends on a lot of anecdotes with few concrete answers. As background, John Sheesley asked a simple question: Has Lenovo...

- Lenovo IdeaPad Y510
- When is a ThinkPad not a ThinkPad? Don't twist your brain too hard around this riddle. It's when Lenovo, a corporate staple, makes a play for the casual laptop buyer, dressing up its solid, well-built systems with some new consumer-friendly features and naming it the 15-inch IdeaPad Y510. Aside from...

Fujitsu's flagship business laptop uses the same chassis we saw last year, which for a 15.4-inch mainstream model is relatively attractive with its matte black lid, silver keyboard tray, and white keys. The system...

- Toshiba Tecra M9
- Toshiba's business-oriented Tecra line is far from flashy, but the company's self-described flagship model, the 14-inch Tecra M9, makes up for its thick, unwieldy design by offering semi-rugged features including a shock-absorbing chassis and a spill-resistant keyboard. Our $1,794 review unit conforms to the Centrino Pro platform, which uses Intel's...
