The most exciting product I've held this week was the VK Mobile VK2020, currently sold by Dynamism for $399. At 8.8 mm thick and 1.9 ounces, this super-slick fashion phone is slimmer and lighter than either Motorola's SLVR L7 or Samsung's new SGH-T509, and it's reasonably priced for an unlocked GSM phone you could use on T-Mobile or many foreign carriers. (It works with Cingular in some parts of the country but not others.)

Slim doesn't mean feature-less, either. The VK2020 has 128 MB of memory of which 100 MB are available for the built-in MP3 player. It has Bluetooth for headsets, and USB Mass Storage Mode so you can move files easily to and from your PC.

It's not the greatest phone, phone-wise. The keys are small, the reception so-so, the screen is dim, and a lot of the features are really quirky. But it makes calls, and it's pretty. So, so pretty. It will attract conversation and make sexy people talk to you. That's what really matters here.

Look for my full review on PCMag.com soon.
