- 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...

- Congratulations B&N, you've built my Kindroid. So now what?
- I like it butstill a bit pricey for being a one trick pony. Once we get below $200 then I'd be interested. The Nookie Book......sorry, that's Nook eBook... actually looks pretty good. It's a much better value than the Kindle, IMHO. Still not at my price point, but it's pretty...

- The Samsung Intrepid made its debut at CTIA Fall 2009 as Sprint's first Windows Mobile 6.5 smartphone. Admittedly, we weren't particularly impressed by the handset's drab and slightly plasticky design when we saw it at the show but now that we've had some time to get to know the device,...

- 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...

The RIM BlackBerry Storm was riddled with bugs and performance issues, which were resolved with subsequent software updates, but still, the damage had been done. However, there...
