    The page needs quite some time to load. This will turn of regular readers.

    Some articles are a bit short, for example the google & iphone article.

    Your top commentator is Admin. You might want to change this.

    And why do You want donations for hosting costs? Your page is flooded with ads.

    Some articles are really great, for example the Nokia E51 review.
    Nice pictures also. You can actually see details and they have a good resolution. I like this.

    The overall design and selection of colors is good and bright. I like that.

    Maybe You want to add a link at the end of each phone review post: Buy this phone here *affiliate link*

    If You like my review, You could review my blog: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=591377

    Try to change the font of the logo, and yes it takes some time to load, May be its because of the number of images and their size try to decrease all the image size a little bit in the post but I like the 3 column template. Try another wide rectangle at the lower part of the page where its very much empty, but it may again delay the loading some more.

    wow. i have a 10mbps connection and the page took over 30 seconds to load in fact, it's still loading as i'm typing this reply.

    it really gets hung up on img.shopping.com 's servers

    otherwise, the sidebars are too busy. it's really daunting to me, and i'd probably just leave the site. i cant stand trying to find page navigation in a monster slew of ads and other random buttons. plus, its KILLING your load time, so i'd leave the site already anyway.

    no sir i dont like it

    by the way, it's still loading as im done typing this

    Dude your blog is gr8 but i don`t like the font of the logo to. . .

    About your blog speed that cuz the many ads in your blog i don`t mean the number but the servers (AdSense, Kontera, WidgetBucks, BlogRush, Chitika) they are not in one server so when AdSense ads done Kontera will start next etc..., with 5 servers and your own that will take time to load all that. . . :)
    the shopping ads take alot of time to load.

    BEST OF LUCK WITH YOUR NICE BLOG :)
