- Sharp LC-26D43U
- Although CNET did not review the 26-inch Sharp LC-26D43U, we did review the 32-inch Sharp LC-26D43U. Judging from their spec sheets, the two Sharp LCD HDTVs are essentially identical but for screen size, so we expect the picture quality of the 32-inch model to provide a good indication of how...

- Firefly flyPhone (blue)
- Though cell phones for youth came into vogue two years ago, it wasn't long before they fell out of favor.

- Acer P241W
- The Acer P241w can be found for as cheap as $380--a very fair price for a 24-inch LCD--and boasts a unique look and very bright image. Of the five 24-inch displays we've reviewed this year, we'd rank it fourth, but it still does some things better than its higher ranked...

- Samsung SGH-A227 (AT&T)
- In the land of basic cell phones, variety is pretty slim. That's why AT&T's Samsung SGH-A227 fits so well in the genre. Sporting a minimalist flip design with simple calling and messaging features, the SGH-A227 does exactly what a cell phone should do. Though its controls are rather cramped and...

- Tough love: Linux needs more haters

- LG Chocolate 3 (Verizon Wireless)
- One could argue that as the Razr was to Motorola, the Chocolate was to LG. It was the first real iconic phone from LG, gaining plenty of hype because of its slender look and candy bar moniker. The Chocolate was also one of the first to really showcase Verizon's V...

- Sony VAIO VGN-FW140
- Sony's new VAIO FW140 covers a few firsts for us. It's the first 16-inch laptop we've gotten our hands on--and the display's movie-friendly 16:9 aspect ratio will become more popular in the next year or two (we've already seen it in the excellent 18-inch Acer Aspire 8920). It's also the...
