1 - Toshiba Libretto W105

The Toshiba Libretto W105 is no threat to any existing computing device, thanks its full plate of flaws.


2 - Paper.li

Essentially a browser-based version of Flipboard, this new application culls stories posted to Twitter into a newspaper-like interface, but infrequent updates keep it from reaching its potential.


3 - Netgear ProSafe 5AP Wireless Management System (WMS105)

Netgear's WMS105 wireless management is a good, affordable way to manage up to five Netgear access points, and it's easy enough to use that anyone who has set up a home wireless router can probably handle it.


4 - Samsung Rugby II SGH-A847 (AT&T)

The Samsung Rugby II SGH-A847 is an excellent voice phone for AT&T that one-ups Nextel with 3G speeds and push-to-talk capabilities.


5 - Netgear ProSafe 16 AP Wireless Management System WMS5316

If you've got five to sixteen Netgear access points in your network, Netgear's ProSafe 16 AP is ideal for management.


6 - Pandigital Novel

The Pandigital Novel functions as a basic e-book reader for the exceedingly patient, but it's no bargain tablet computer, by any stretch of the imagination.


7 - Twitter for iPad

Sporting a (mostly) clean layout, multiple account support, and the slick Panes feature, Twitter's official iPad app is one of the best of its kind.


8 - Sceptre X270

The Sceptre X270 LCD monitor handles fast-action gaming handily, but there are better performing monitors out there in this price range.


9 - Samsung Flight II SGH-A927 (AT&T)

The Samsung Flight II isn't a terrible phone, but it's mediocre in so many ways that it looks hideously overpriced per month.


10 - TweetDeck for iPad

One of the most popular third-party Twitter apps comes to the iPad, bringing with it nearly all of the functionality of the desktop version, but not any additional social media integration.


11 - Sony PlayStation Move

Sony may not be first to the motion-gaming party, but the PlayStation Move technology is a step above the Wii—now if developers tap the system to produce more compelling game titles, we'll have a true winner.


12 - Sony Ericsson Vivaz (AT&T)

The Sony Ericsson Vivaz's disastrous user interface makes every action into a chore.


13 - Samsung Eternity II SGH-A597 (AT&T)

The Samsung Eternity II offers smooth, broadcast mobile TV, but it doesn't have much else to recommend it.


14 - Canon Pixma MG8120 Wireless Photo All-In-One Printer

The Canon Pixma MG8120 Wireless Photo All-In-One Printer focuses on printing high-quality photos.


15 - LG Infinia 47LX9500

LG's good-looking 47-inch Infinia 47LX9500 delivers a solid picture with deep blacks, but at $4,000+ before accessories, this 3D HDTV is no bargain.


16 - Lenovo IdeaPad Y560D

The Lenovo IdeaPad Y560D is a performance-packed gaming laptop above all else, and the 3D screen, thankfully, is only an option.


17 - Samsung R540-11

The Samsung R540-11 is the lightest and fastest 15-inch laptop you can get, but you'll find better battery life elsewhere.


18 - Asus EeePC 1215N

The Asus EeePC 1215N is updated with a dual-core Atom processor and Nvidia's Optimus technology, trumping all other netbooks in speed and graphics power.


19 - WebEx PCNow

Cisco's take on remote control software can't hold its own against the top competition, despite offering 5 free gigabytes of online backup.


20 - AIM for iPad

AOL's iPad app lets you IM and socially network with ease, but a few issues prevent it from being a must-have download.


21 - BlackBerry Curve 8530 (MetroPCS)

The BlackBerry Curve 8530's classic form factor and stellar MetroPCS pricing make it a powerful budget smartphone.


22 - Dropcam Echo

The Dropcam Echo is a highly effective home video surveillance system that stores recorded video and audio in the cloud so you can access past events from anywhere—including your iPhone.


23 - Pandigital Personal Photo Scanner/Converter PanScn06

The Pandigital Personal Photo Scanner/Converter PanScn06 can scan directly to a memory card or to a PC.


24 - Panda Internet Security 2011

Panda Internet Security 2011 has changed little since last year. It was good then and it's good now, but more innovative competitors are pulling ahead.


25 - Plantronics M100

The Plantronics M100 is a solid, dual-mic Bluetooth headset with just enough features to make it worthy of consideration.


26 - GoToMyPC 7.0

GoToMyPC was a pioneer in PC remote control, but it hasn't kept up with newer options of LogMeIn and TeamViewer.


27 - Shure SE425

Shure's latest earphone pair, the SE425, is aimed at audiophiles in terms of both price and performance.


28 - LG Infinia 60PK750

LG's 60PK750 plasma HDTV is a real looker, but it doesn't match the performance of other plasma TVs.


29 - Logitech Rechargeable Speaker S715i

The Logitech Rechargeable Speaker S715i delivers quality audio performance in a portable package.


30 - Doxie

The Doxie scanner combines ease of use, relatively high-quality scans, and scanning to the cloud.
