A few weeks ago, Yahoo News reported on PC World’s list of the best cell phones of 2005. These are not just any cell phones mind you, these are the ones that have led the revolutions into text and instant messaging, playing music, watching TV, playing games and taking pictures, all in one easy-to-use hand-held device. Not surprisingly, Motorola’s Razr V3 and Palm’s Treo 650 topped the list and won PC World’s “World Class Award” for the year.
To make a long story short, I have taken the liberty of making a neat little list for you to review the best phone offered by each carrier for the year (not including the two phones mentioned above).
