Very nice review. I wonder why they didn't use the same screen the G85 utilizes? Probably a cost factor.

There's a huge cost price difference in the two screens, which is reflected in the price, both which we get it at and at the price we sell it at. Not surprisingly there is a huge jump in price between higher and lower grade screens of the same size.

I just bought the G89, here in China. And I'm trying to find out if it's possible to add more widgets, games, dictionaries, and so on... and if so, is there a site in English where I could find them. Although I can use a translator for sites in Chinese, I'd rather find them in English, so I'll be more sure of what I'm getting

thanks!
and yes... nice review!

No we can't add anything as its not an open system I'm afraid

you can buy OEM versions of these for $65 from the big shop. i think that's a pretty good price - i'm not really interested in HD video on such a small device and as long as the UI is snappy (which the review says it is) then I can forgive the stupid widgets.
