Digital Life #69: Light my fire

Strike a match, the Kindle is coming to town. We've also got more information on that Sony X-series Vaio and the Windows Phone, as well as weigh in on the Nobel Prize for Physics (because, we're physicists and all).

Sony Ericsson Satio

There are a few trade-offs, but overall we're very impressed. The Satio sports a sharp, responsive touchscreen and is possibly the year's best camera phone.

Reviews

  • Nokia E52

    At first sight the Nokia E52 won't set your heart racing, but its excellent battery life and ease of use make it a smartphone worthy of consideration.

  • Nokia N86 8MP

    There's a lot to like about the N86 8MP, but it's hard to fall in love with it too. While it's well made with good features, it looks and feels like a phone from several years ago.

  • 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.

  • HTC Snap

    The Snap will appeal to a specific segment of business-minded road warriors who need good messaging but don't want to pay for extras like media or social networking.

  • Sony Ericsson C510

    The C510 rises high above its low price tag and our prepaid prejudices. The camera is decent and it's assisted by excellent shooting modes and settings.

  • Nokia E63

    Like its older brother, the E71, the E63 will make an excellent messaging phone, but is for people who need to be connected without the tech trimmings.

  • Nokia 7310 Supernova

    Nokia's 7310 Supernova is a pretty phone for pretty people, but this supernova is not a star (in the astronomical or important sense) nor has it exploded in greatness.

  • 3 INQ1

    There's simply no better phone at this price. Fast web access, solid construction and fantastic social networking make this a must-see phone.
