There's nothing wrong with that...they sell very well, but the Sidekick does not deserve to be so high on the list, and only one point behind the Palm 700p, which is a far more capable device. As for no BB on the list: I guess the folks at PC World write for the general consumer market, which would explain their emphasis on features like camera, mp3, etc. Apparently, they don't put much merit in actually using the device as a business tool, rather than as a toy. Personally, I think that the BB 8700 should have made the list. It not only uses the great BB system, but it has an incredible screen.
