BlackBerry 8707g

The BlackBerry 8707g is reasonably zippy and easy-to-use, but lacks many common smartphone features like Wi-Fi and microSD memory expansion.
Palm Centro

Not the flashiest phone around, but its jaw-dropping price, ease of use and vast software ecosystem, make it a good choice for first time smartphone buyers and Palm OS aficionados alike.
i-mate JAMA 201

The JAMA 201 smartphone looks the part of a smartphone, but it's not good enough to be the real deal.
HTC Touch Pro

With the tech-savvy still drooling over the Touch Diamond, HTC has followed up with the announcement of the Touch Pro. The obvious difference is a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, though under the hood HTC has tweaked a few key specs.
BlackBerry Pearl 8110

The 8110 isn't so much an updated model as it's virtually identical to the previously released Pearl 8120, excluding the fact that the 8110 includes a GPS chipset, but is without Wi-Fi.

With HSDPA, GPS and Wi-Fi packed into a very sexy-looking handset, it's difficult to find flaws or omissions in what we know of the BlackBerry Bold 9000 so far.
