Unbelievably, there are new gadgets other than Apple iPhone 4S and Amazon Kindle Fire. There's a fanny pack to tote these toys – one also equipped with a personal alarm system. Or how about the smartest Bluetooth headset ever? Or a case for your iPhone 4S that's actually a wallet? Or…
Some of us will never get used to typing on a touch screen keyboard. So for Verizon customers dissatisfied with the 3G iPhone 4S with its 3.5 inch screen, here's the Samsung Stratosphere ($150 after rebate and two-year deal), a true LTE 4G phone with a 4-inch Super AMOLED screen, a 5 MP camera and a five-row slideout QWERTY keyboard. That fifth row is a dedicated numerical row; many similar QWERTY phones have only a four-line keyboard, meaning you have to hit a function key to get numbers. Yuch. It runs Android 2.3 Gingerbread, is powered by a 1 GHz processor, and includes mobile hot spot capabilities to supply 4G Wi-Fi connections for up to eight other devices.
