8/10

WIRED
Half-inch thin. Super light (3.3 ounces). Browser provides easy Gmail and Google Maps access. 256-MB memory card in box. Unique extras like TrackID, mini music sequencer, and video editor.

A pedometer plus fitness software for measuring distance, calories burned, and lap times make it the perfect exercise buddy. Only major flaw is its undersize keypad, which seems to have been designed for baby Smurfs.
