“Just to show that the big names don’t have it all their own way, the Swedish-designed O2 Cocoon impressed us with looks and features. We like the cheap and stylish Sagem my150X and the Motorola FONE proved to be both clever and cost effective.

Another Nokia, the Nokia E90 brought the Communicator series bang up-to-date, but it didn’t really capture the public imagination.”
