So you want a touch screen phone, but you don’t want the problems associated with getting an iPhone?  Assuming you’re an Alltel customer LG claims to have the phone for you.  The AX830, or more commonly called the Glimmer, is a sliding touch screen phone that still has a 12 button keypad.  The Glimmer is part of a series of phones including the Shine and other similar versions, based on the cell phone carrier. The Glimmer is a CDMA phone, meaning its core chip is made by Qualcomm, this means if you travel much overseas you should consider getting a GSM phone instead because it has better global support.

amsung has really been producing some great products lately and have given myself the chance to be able to analyze and review them. First was the Samsung Tantus LTM1575W, then was the SyncMaster 191T, and now we have a look at the SyncMaster 151MP which is a 15" TFT- LCD Monitor with TV tuner
capabilities as well.

In the past years LCD display prices have dropped considerably but are still quite expensive depending on what make and model. Although they are more expensive than CRT monitors it is unfair to compare the two. CRT monitors provide a great price to size ratio. You can get a 19" monitor with great features and a great contrast ratio for a few hundred dollars now. Then again you get all the extra weight and size that a CRT monitor carries while a LCD monitor is more expensive but are light and compact. As you can see each type of display have their pros and cons so I will not get into any more detail on whether which type "is better". Instead lets have a closer look at the Samsung SyncMaster 151MP and see how it rates over other LCD displays in its class

As of late, LCD panels have becoming more and more popular as they become more affordable.  For the general user the space-saving dimensions of a LCD flat panel combined with their reduction of eyestrain outweigh the losses in picture quality.

Today, we're taking a look at the Hitachi CML152, Hitachi's least expensive model in their entire LCD display line.  This is their basic model, with no additional features like DVI.  This LCD panel is designed for and marketed towards those that are in the market for a basic, inexpensive LCD monitor.
