    I can't believe the COWON S9 got no love in the PMP section. It straight-up blows the iPod Touch and Zune HD out of the water.

    I have a 32" Sanyo that I got from Walmart last year for $400. I haven't had a single issue with it, and the picture looks great.

    Visio is the only cheap TV brand I trust. After I bought mine, numerous friends of mine jumped on board. After viewing a few dozen vizios in operation through the past few years not only have my friends become loyal to the brand, I found that I have as well. I recently had a the pleasure of viewing a 42" 120 hz LCD made by Vizio and in comparison to my buddy's 46 inch Samsung LED, the friend with the Visio got a much better deal. Other than the obvious screen size difference and richer blacks, they had similar IQ.

    I know, right?!?

    I can't believe that Palm is still firing volleys across the bow of Apple! I'm sure the next update to the iPhone will turn the Pixi back to it's former, black self.

    Will this petty industry bickering never stop?

    @VenomIreland: well, mostly because they provide no explanation in the article proper (didn't check the link). The ps3 has seen some incredible first party titles this year, has BD built in, free online network, introduced slimmer hardware, lower price point, netflix (with no Gold subscription required). Not to mention that ps3 reliability trumps the xbox all day (RROD's are reportedly less frequent, but failure rates are still high). Add banning for modded xbox's, and I find it hard to argue xbox's continued superiority just because of a slightly larger gamer community and left 4 dead 2 (which admittedly, I'd love to have on the PS 3).

    Speaking of Zune Pass, Napster is doing something similar for 5 dollars a month (with 5 songs you get to keep). Anyone use Napster know if this is any good?

    I second the Dell Mini 10v. You can get them on sale refurbished for $200, toss in a cheap 2GB stick of RAM (I paid $20 for a stick of Geil that works great) and hackintosh away. I've been using mine for two-three weeks now and it's great.

    Now who wants to buy me a MBP and a Nikon D3s?

    How did the Adamo XPS make it to the best-ofs list, but not the HP (Macbook-like) Envy? Granted, the design is a bit derivative, but you still get way more for your money than the Adamo.

    @matt buchanan: Yowza. The display model I looked at was locked so I didn't have a chance to really test it out, but that's gotta be the shittiest trackpad in recent history for the Adamo to win.
