Apple iPhone 3G Cell Phone Review
Here it is, our in-depth, comparative, totally obsessive review of the new iPhone 3G. The latest iteration of Apple's cell phones brings a couple of major upgrades on the hardware side with 3G and GPS on board. It also comes with the new iPhone 2.0 software upgrade that brings support for Exchange Server and third party applications. In addition, it has the benefits of a full year's worth of upgrades that we haven't looked at since we did the last iPhone review. So, is it a worthy upgrade to one of the most iconic cell phones of our time? You're going to have to read the review to find out, or go out and pay $199 with a two-year contract to make your own decision. But seriously, we recommend you read our review first. Note: we're still working on battery tests, we will update the review when those are done.

LG Dare Cell Phone Review
The LG Dare is another touch screen device that is pointed directly at the iPhone. Verizon has been moving strongly in the direction of touch screen phones with devices like the LG Voyager and Samsung Glyde. The Dare is the best of the bunch so far, however. It has superior software, a very responsive touch screen, an excellent 3.2 megapixel camera and very good battery life. Is all of this enough to beat out the iPhone 3G and get Verizon customers to shell out $199 with a two-year contract for the Dare instead? Read on to find out.

Samsung Instinct Cell Phone Review
The Samsung Instinct is Sprint's newest iPhone competitor, and it brings a lot to the table. We found the large display and responsive touch screen were easy to use, and the interface sacrifices extra functions for ease of use, which isn't a bad thing at all. Email mavens will appreciate the Exchange support and the music and video software is good, but slow to load. There's also GPS on board, a good web browser and with Sprint's Simply Everything plan you'll be able to use it all without worrying about extra charges, for a price of course. So does all of this add up to an iPhone killer? Read the review to find out.

Nokia E66 Cell Phone Review
The Nokia E66 is the latest in Nokia's business oriented E-Series devices. Available in the third quarter of 2008 for north of $500 as an unlocked handset the E66 is an extremely capable device. It's solidly built and the form factor is slim and professionally attractive. The organizer and email features, which are probably the most important for business users, have been improved over previous E-Series devices and provide you with powerful business tools. Will it hold up under heavy use, however? Read the review to find out.

Samsung Glyde Cell Phone Review
The Samsung Glyde's signature features are a touch screen interface and a slide out QWERTY keyboard. Unfortunately neither impressed us very much. We found the Glyde's touch screen was unresponsive and difficult to use. The QWERTY faired a bit better, we could type relatively fast on it, but we found the keys clicky and the top row too close to the upper part of the slider. The Glyde does have some good points, it's two megapixel auto-focus camera took better than average shots, battery life on the handset was solid and it sports some advanced features like Verizon's TV service and GPS. Does the good outweigh the bad? Read the review to find out.
