1)Garmin-Nuvifone:
very interesting to see how a sat-nav company’s foray into the handset market would come into play
2)Hummer-HQ2
should be as tough as what the Hummer serves to, but has it useful functionalities?\
3)LG-Secret
so its not secret anymore & now there are ready buyers to work it out
4)LG-KC550
captred videos could be worth a watch if it incorporates mp4 vid-comp tech, else its just a waste
5)Nokia-E71
a solid qwerty handset? let’s see
6)NTT-Doc SO906i
a PMP wannabe, would rather use a PSP than squint onto a tiny display that would just hurt your eyes
7)NTT-Doc F705i
what devices should be built like given the everyday hazards of a hectic life, hope this wont be for japan-only market
8)Samsung-Omnia
what’s in a name? though Samsung hopes to be better-late-than-never, but price is still a disappointment
9)SE-F305
please, let Wii-remote alone use this, unless you really want to appear like an idiot or a nuisance in public
10)SE-C905
a special one, moving up consumer expectations & trough of a form-factor

Samsung Omnia SGH-i900 is my personal choice among the ten and I'm pretty sure about getting one rather than drooling over a 3G iPhone with LESSer features.

If only an "actual" hummer came with the phone...le sigh...

The LG KF750 & Samsung Omnia & SE C905...........hmmm 3 delectable pieces with lots of drool factor to keep my thoughts occupied. The 3G iPhone is starting to look like a distant memory to me.
