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 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.

  • Nokia 5530 XpressMusic

    Nokia's latest touchscreen music phone is so similar to its last you'd be forgiven for thinking they were the same.

  • 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 5330 XpressMusic

    Nokia aren't going for broke with this XpressMusic model. Expect a standard set of music-centric and a resonable mid-year price. To be released locally in the third quarter of 2009.

  • Nokia 5730 XpressMusic

    Nokia's 5730 XpressMusic is like the mullet of mobile phones; business up front, party out the back. This mix of business and consumer features will be welcomed by some, but could leave the 5730 in a techno-limbo.

  • Nokia 5630 XpressMusic

    At only 12mm in thickness, the 5630 won't stretch your pants pockets and shouldn't stretch your budget either. Music lovers will appreciate the included 3.5mm headphone jack and bundled 4GB micro SD card.

  • 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.

  • Motorola EM330

    It is yet another clamshell phone from yet another phone company. So what sets this mobile phone apart from the others? Not much.

  • Is this the Nokia 5900 XpressMusic?
