BlackBerry Bold 9700

While it's hard to recommend it as an upgrade to current Bold owners, the 9700 is an outstanding phone in its own right and is still among the best handsets for business users.
Pro Evolution Soccer 2010

This year's Pro Evo improves upon its predecessor in some key areas, but it does little else to keep up with the competition.
BlackBerry Curve 8520

With the BlackBerry Curve 8520, RIM has done a good job of creating an affordable phone with all the right features, although you might miss 3G connectivity. Just make sure you get it in black.
BlackBerry Curve 8900

We wanted a "Baby Bold" but instead we got the "Bold lite". Not having 3G seriously cripples an otherwise excellent BlackBerry.
Vodafone Compass

Compass makes an excellent navigation tool for casual users looking for directions a few times a month or year. More frequent users should look to something more robust.
BlackBerry Storm 9500

The Storm's clickable display has given us confidence in touchscreens we haven't enjoyed before now. It won't be for everyone, but those who master this system will be rewarded with an excellent smartphone experience.
BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8220

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

Engaging player-versus-player combat makes this an online role-playing game to reckon with.
