Time to check in on the pageviews report here at CNET to see which product reviews are getting the most traffic. We figure a high number of people looking at a review means it must be pretty popular. So this Top 5 counts down the most popular products based on how many people read our reviews. And all you read about these days is phones, at least in large numbers.
Of course, there is still a lame prize, so watch the video, then come back here and post your answer in the forums. We'll pick a winner from the first 10 people to answer the trivia question correctly.
Last week's answer: HP 9830
We take calls about solid-state drives, iPhone 4, and uninstalling networking.

OK, folks. This is our last Top 5 of the year. And it's obviously meant to sync up with the start of our year when we head to CES first thing in 2010.
So watch the show to get a look at some of the products we loved last year at CES, but seemed to miss on the shelves this year. Then come back here and post in the comments for a chance to win the lame prize.
The year is all but over. All over but the counting. Actually, we got the counting done early, so it's truly just over. We finished the year early! Yay!
And as a reward you'll be getting a bunch of Top 5s all at once. Starting with this one, the best products of 2009. The ranking is based on the editors' rating our CNET reviewers gave the products with editors' choice awards, and your user ratings are used as tie-breakers.
So watch the video, then head back to this post and answer the trivia question in the comments below.
There are lots of really good gifts to give and to get this year. We're giving one away in this top 5! But there are also a lot of really bad mistakes you could make. So don't make them. Watch the Top 5, heed the warnings, then come back to this blog and post a comment for a chance to win a Sony Reader touch edition, courtesy of Sony Electronics. It's easy.
