While most people this year seem to focus on the high-profile phones such as the iPhone 3G, the HTC Touch Diamond, and even the yet-to-be-released Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1, there are strong contenders in the market for those who don’t care a bit about fads.

When it comes to reviewing the latest-latest gadgets, Mobile-Review.com is simply one of the best.

As for when it hits Australia, I would give it another couple of weeks.

Will be interesting to see how the battle against the new 3G iPhone pans out, especially with recent rumours that Apple just ordered 10 million new iPhones ready for sale . Perhaps that was overly-ambitious? We’ll see.
