2. Cingular 8525

Editors' rating: 8.0

The good: The Cingular 8525 is the first UMTS/HSDPA smart phone to be offered in the United States. It has integrated Bluetooth 2.0, Wi-Fi and supports Cingular's new location-based services. The Windows Mobile device also has push e-mail capabilities, a 2-megapixel camera, a spacious QWERTY keyboard and good call quality.

The bad: The Cingular 8525 is on the heavier side, and the navigation array is a bit cramped. The smart phone is also pricey.

The bottom line: For the ultimate road warrior, the 3G-enabled Cingular 8525 provides the speed, power and productivity tools to get your work done on the go.
