Welcome to Cnet top 5. Where each time we meet, we count down another hot Cnet list. I’m Tom Merritt. Time to check in on the gadgets that tripped your trigger. These are the most popular products as determined by ranking, what Cnet reviews you look at the most. It’s a peek into what tech is top of mind for the Cnet crowd. So let’s count them down.
At number 5, the Asus Eee PC 1005HA. Just barely hanging on by the skin of its tiny little 10 inch screen. But, it’s still the reigning editor’s choice in laptops and it’s hang around to the most popular list since June.
Coming in at number 4, the HTC Imagio for Verizon wireless. A new comer to the list, a great all-in-one smart phone with the fresh new windows 6.5 mobile operating system and all the wi-fi, touch screen and other smart phone goodness you’ve come to expect.
Up to number 3, the HTC Hero. No, no Bonnie Tyler please. It’s the Google phone for sprint. And while Bonnie Chow found it a bit sluggish, it still ranks as one of the most feature packed android phones yet. Had a feeling the droids going to eat it up next month.
Sliding in at number 2, Microsoft Windows 7. It just launched, but I imagine it will be on this list for a while. Other than a little snuffoo with the student edition, it mostly gets rave reviews. I personally got it to blue screen once, it’s even got a better blue screen.
Before we get to number 1, time for another lame prize. You’ll be competing for this amazing music sensitive light up t-shirt, batteries included. It can turn you into a popular product. Here’s the question, what product was the most popular one year ago? Be one of the first ten people to answer correctly at blog.cnettv.com, and you could be chosen to win.
On with the countdown, time for the most popular product as determined by you, the Cnet fans. At number 1, it’s the Samsung Rogue for Verizon wireless. That’s gorgeous display and a great keyboard, but, it’s a bit bulky. However, over-all, it’s a great touch screen messaging phone and only costs 80 bucks with contract. That’s why Nicole Lee made it an editor’s choice, and you made it the most popular product on cnet.com.
Well that’s it for this edition of Cnet top 5. Next month we’ll most likely see the Motorola Droid and a slew of other new phones that have come out. Will the rogue withstand the assault? Can the Eee PC hang on another month? Only top 5 will be able to tell you for sure. And don’t forget, head up blog.cnettv.com for a chance to win the light up t-shirt. I’m Tom Merritt. See you next time.
