Audiovox CDM-8910 (Verizon Wireless)

CNET Editors' Review
The good: VGA camera; speakerphone; analog roaming; solid call quality.
The bad: Ho-hum design; no infrared port.
The bottom line: For users that want an affordable camera phone with a fair amount of high-end features such as voice dialing and a speakerphone, the CDM-8910 fits the bill.

As with the Flasher V7, a tiny, monochrome external display shows the time, the date, battery life, signal strength, and caller ID (where available). The camera's flash and lens are just below in the lower-left corner. Inside, the phone features a bright, 1.75-inch display capable of showing 65,000 colors. The navigation buttons are clearly separated, well organized, and easy to use. A five-way circular toggle offers one-click access to various features. Two soft keys open the main menu and contacts, and the OK button doubles as a camera key. You also get a camera key on the handset's right side, just above the volume rocker.
The 8910 comes loaded with a number of respectable features, including a 300-contact phone book that holds five phone numbers and an e-mail address for each name. Contacts can be organized into caller groups and can be paired with a picture as well as any of 15 polyphonic ring tones. Unlike many midrange phones, the handset also has a speakerphone and supports voice dialing. Other features largely resemble those of the Flasher V7. You get a vibrate mode, text and multimedia messaging, a WAP 2.0 wireless Web browser, a scheduler, an alarm clock, and a world clock. Additional ring tones, BREW-enabled games, and personalization options are available for download through Verizon's Get It Now service.
