Samsung's svelte Armani phone   
We saw the future of plasmas in the Panasonic Viera TH-37PX80B. We were impressed by the fantastic picture quality and its equally excellent price.

Sony Ericsson W890i
The Sony Ericsson W890i Walkman phone could go down in mobile phone history as one of the best Sony Ericsson handsets ever. It greatly improves upon its W880i predecessor with a solid, slim casing and we argue that you could even replace your MP3 player with this handset
