Are two screens better than one? The KF600's morphing touch-navigation pad is a cool concept and adds a little high-end class to an otherwise low-spec handset.
While parts of the iPhone 3G are superb, there are still some big features missing from this device. If you add up the extras the iPhone doesn't seem like a phone that everyone can afford.

Not the flashiest phone around, but its jaw-dropping price, ease of use and vast software ecosystem, make it a good choice for first time smartphone buyers and Palm OS aficionados alike.
Toshiba, who built one of the world's first notebooks, clearly has a head start in the race to put a laptop on every desk. The AU$1,210 Satellite M300 is a step in the right direction, being a modest, yet high quality desktop replacement at a reasonable price.
At AU$2199, the XD520U DLP projector sits at the top end of Mitsubishi Electric's new "Leo" range of DLP business projectors. The XD520U performs a little bit better than its specifications might suggest, but you do pay a noise penalty in return.
As Next G handsets go, the A551 isn't the best, nor is it the worst. Its middle of the road design and feature set is matched by a mid-range price tag.
Wrapped in a sturdy stainless steel case, there's nothing ground-breaking about the Shine Slide. However for AU$249, it's an excellent prepaid option.
The Dell Vostro range, which comes in both notebook and desktop form factors, is designed for the small business market. We found the Vostro 1510 to have good performance for a mid-range notebook but performance comes at the expense of battery life.
Even with GPS and its expected lower price-tag the P3470 will struggle without Wi-Fi or 3G data speeds.
The Toshiba Satellite L300 is the perfect budget laptop " simply designed and passable in performance.
With a mass of storage and a large breadth of features, the M70SA from ASUS is a solid performer and a decent media centre/desktop replacement to boot.
If you work with images, a graphics tablet has obvious advantages: directly edit vector art, retouch images, paint, produce video special effects, and so on. True, tablets aren't for everyone. If you work with a tablet now, you'll probably find a Cintiq even more fluid and powerful.
The K660i shares most of its specs with budget-priced phones, with the addition of HSDPA data speeds, and minus the budget price tag.
The VPL-FE40 is an ideal projector for showcasing presentations, video and images in medium- to large-sized meeting rooms and auditoriums. The only downside is the cost, both to purchase and run, which will limit the VPL-FE40 to large organisations with big budgets.
