Best Overall Product of CTIA Fall 2008: Sprint One Click

Proving that you don’t need a smart phone to have a smart interface, Sprint’s new One Click menu system makes it dead simple to access everything from your text messages and e-mail to Sprint’s navigation and music services. We love the carousel-style UI, and that you don’t have to dig through sub-menus to get to what you want, including YouTube. Being able to conduct a Google search right from the main screen (a feature once available only on Palm Treos) is convenient. Plus, you can customize One Click to show your favorite Web sites. One Click will be available on the Samsung Highnote, Rant, and LG Lotus when those phones become available in October, and the Sanyo Katana will follow. This UI not only saves time, it will encourage Sprint customers to take full advantage of all the carrier’s services–making the Simply Everything plan that much sweeter.
