A sufficiently solid alternative to Canon or Nikon?
25 November 2009 12:09 GMT

- Price
- £299

Can this power your gadget life?
14 October 2009 16:00 GMT
- The Good

- Price
- £30
-

30 October 2009 20:09 GMT
- The Good
- Screen, Verizon network, Wi-Fi, QWERTY keyboard
- The Bad
- No multi-touch browsing, no emotion
- Verdict
- This is a fantastic phone, but would we personally choose it over the Hero? Not, if the Hero, as suggested by HTC, will be getting Android 2.0
