IBM has released a way to get Lotus Notes email on your iPhone that stops short of full support, but gets the job done.

IBM's iNotes Ultralite will be formally released this week for Notes administrators and iPhone users. The software is a web application that allows you to access Notes mail through the Safari mobile browser on the iPhone. Administrators need to install IBM Lotus Domino Web Access 8.0.2 in order to make the whole thing work.

One of the more popular additions to the iPhone 3G was the support for Microsoft's Exchange technology, which allows you to get your corporate Exchange email on the iPhone's Mail client.

IBM and Apple haven't inked a deal to do the same thing for Notes as of yet, but an IBM representative said the two companies are working to bring the Lotus Notes Traveler software to the iPhone. iNotes Ultralite is a free download from IBM.

      The first BlackBerry clamshell looks great and does the basics well, though its lack of 3G data speeds is disappointing.

      The INNOV8 is loaded with features and sports massive storage. If you're in the market for a mobile phone that can do just about anything the INNOV8 should be on your shortlist.

      This one's for your nan -- it's a basic, budget flip phone equipped with an AM radio and not much else.

      It's been a long time since we last saw a Nokia that failed to do the basics well, but the 6600 Fold fits this description. It looks great but, with poor call quality, the Fold is a dismal under-achiever.
