Sony PlayStation 3 Gains VOIP Service

Jajah, a VOIP service, has tailored its interface to the PlayStation 3 browser, allowing gamers to place voice calls.
As the PlayStation 3 currently lacks a service that’s comparable to the Microsoft Xbox’s Live service, which allows for voice communication via a USB headset, the Jajah interface at least allows gamers to communicate with one another. [...]

BlackBerry Pearl Reviews

PCMag reviews the BlackBerry Pearl and writes, “The Pearl’s music player handles MP3, AAC, and WAV audio files, and it even shows album art. But you can’t search by album, artist, or title, though you can organize songs in folders and play the contents of a folder. Videos look absolutely terrific at 24 frames [...]

Motorola KRZR K1m Reviews

PCMag reviews the Motorola KRZR K1M and writes, “I’m unenthusiastic, however, about the KRZR’s multimedia capabilities. V CAST’s video menu took a long time to load on my phone, the interface seemed sluggish, and videos were very choppy. Plus, while the V CAST Music store works smoothly, you have to open the phone and [...]

Motorola RAZR V3i Review

Much like a stale piece of last year’s birthday cake dressed up with a fresh dollop of whipped cream, the Motorola RAZR V3i is a lame attempt to disguise an old product with new fixings. The handset duplicates 2004’s hot RAZR platform without really updating it—and makes all the same mistakes of the company’s [...]

Samsung SGH-T509 - PCMag

The number to remember with the super-thin Samsung SGH-T509 isn’t the model number. It’s the price: from $49 (with contract) for a very good-looking phone with Bluetooth and an EDGE modem. This phone shows you don’t have to give up style or features if you only have a few Jacksons crunched up in your [...]

Motorola RAZR V3 - PCMag

Verizon users have been waiting for a RAZR for more than a year now. The nation’s most popular phone redefined cool with its sharp, silver lines. The new version improves on some of the original’s features while keeping the excellent design, reception, and sound quality.

Motorola SLVR L7 - PCMag

The Motorola SLVR L7 may be the handsomest phone in America. But even though it runs Apple’s popular iTunes music player, its feature set doesn’t excite us. (One example: Like the RAZR V3, but unlike the newer V3c, the SLVR L7 uses the primitive recorded-tag form of voice dialing.) Like the Motorola RAZR V3, [...]
