To be perfectly honest I never liked the Toshiba G450. The awkward keyboard and the small screen are not my cup of tea, yet I could imagine younger generations loving it for some reason. Still, I’m having a hard time envisioned it as a bestseller, and was kinda surprised to see the Chinese handset makers cloners doing “their thing” with it. As a result, they’ve prepared virtually identical device, which could be yours for $67 on DealExtreme. We must warn you, though, about the spotty quality and a lack of 3G (HSPDA) radio — the so called M688 is a dual-band GSM handset working on 850 and 1900 MHz bands. Music player and 2GB of internal memory are on the specs list, too…

The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
