Product name	Palm Treo 500v	HTC Hero	Sony Ericsson Satio	Nokia N900
Editors' ratings (How we rate)	6.3 Good	8 Excellent	8 Excellent	CNET Asia editor's take
Review Summary	The most compact Treo available here has some user-friendly features--but because of its lack of some essential connectivity options, that isn't enough to set it apart from other WM6 smart phones already available.	A combination of good design and a fully customizable user interface make the Hero a great smartphone. A boon for the Android platform still in its infancy.	The Satio delivers great pictures and comes with many high-end features, but the inconsistent user interface of the platform mars the overall experience of the device.	More info
