Funky design, Brilliant keyboard, Nice controls

Screen looks quite poor, Chunky design, Connectivity options somewhat lacking

Considering the price tag and the age of the unit, the Hip Top 2 is a pretty solid device. While the quality of the screen, bulky design and lack of connectivity will be a big negative for some, those looking for a device to IM and SMS on will love...

Telstra hiptop 2

 

With consumer-friendly mobile email, instant messaging, SMS and even Web browsing, and a deal that gives you almost unlimited data for $1 per day, Telstra's hiptop 2 looks set to become BlackBerry for teens and twentysomethings -- it could even topple...

Handles mobile email, instant messaging, SMS and Web browsing ; 30/month plan allows unlimited data ; Superb keyboard is none of the best of its kind ; Fuss-free interface is easy to navigate

Contract requires a two-year commitment ; No MP3 player, PC connectivity or memory card expansion ; Digital camera is barely one step above a Box Brownie

The best thing is that the hiptop 2's native multitasking and always-on status means you can effortlessly flick between Web sites, e-mails and IM chat sessions without having to close any one application.
