Samsung Muse SCH-U706 - blue (Alltel): As a longtime purveyor of basic cell phone with simple features, Alltel's reputation wasn't built on offering fancy, feature-laden handsets. But in the last year, the carrier has come a long way toward challenging its larger rivals. A few weeks ago it added the LG Glimmer to its lineup, and...; Tags: Engineering, Telecom & Utilities, rocker, Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., Alltel Corp.; Product reviews 2008-04-30

Fujifilm FinePix A600: The Fujifilm FinePix A600 doesn't do much, and it isn't very pretty, but this shooter does deliver decent photos for less than $200. Some might call it the archetypal budget snapshot camera--a clunky, six-megapixel point-and-shoot with a cookie-cutter feature set. The A600's blocky body manages to be both unimpressive and...; Tags: A600, camera, Fujifilm, Fujifilm FinePix A600; Product reviews 2006-11-06
Treo 700w, Windows Mobile 5.0 marred by flaws: For about the last month, I've been playing with Palm's new Treo 700w.

Sony Ericsson K850i - black (unlocked): Photo gallery:Sony Ericsson K850iWe don't get many Sony Ericsson Cyber-shot cell phones in the United States, which is unfortunate considering that they tend to be quality devices.

Philips BDP-7200: When first announced at CES, the Philips BDP7200 grabbed some headlines with its $350 price tag, which was $50 less than the Sony PlayStation 3.
