By Chris Davies In other mobile news, Vincent shared an unusual unboxing and his first impressions of the Samsung F480 Tocco, one of the company’s touchscreen devices that debuts the TouchWiz GUI.  On paper, at least, the Tocco should wipe the floor with the iPhone, but can it live up to Apple’s handset? ...

By sam mcloughln I kind of like the unlocked Sprint Blackberry 8800-series. It works on both EvDO, and has a SIM card. I have also heard rumors that Sprint and Verizon are going to move away from CDMA/ EvDO, and to the G4 international standard. Now, there's a direction I can lock onto!

By ace@tidbits.com (Adam C. Engst) I love the touchscreen, which makes it so easy to do many things, including access the contacts list (my old phone had Bluetooth but I could never get it to sync), move among different functions, and more. I expect the touchscreen to revolutionize future laptops.

By Chris Leckness 1. The Browser is TOP NOTCH 2. The SMS Messaging threaded view is better than the best, the Treo threaded view… 3.

By Daryl D Many Wi-Fi networks have Internet speeds greater than 1500 kbps. It is rare to find Wi-Fi capabilities on phones from other carriers and if they do contain this capability, you can say goodbye to your battery life. Using Wi-Fi on the iPhone only slightly decreases battery life.
