Review Roundup: How to Buy a Digital Photo Frame
One of the best ways to save your digital images from a lifetime of collecting dust on your memory card or computer hard drive is to load them onto a digital photo frame. But there are a lot out there to choose from, so picking the right one may seem tricky. Follow our four simple rules to find a frame that delivers sharp images and neat features at a pleasing price.



Review: A Free Firewall Aces Our Tests
Standard signature-based antivirus/antispyware programs can't recognize a threat that's too new to have a signature. ThreatFire 3.5 relies strictly on advanced behavior analysis to identify and remove both known and unknown threats. This free utility will be an excellent complement to your existing protection. Read the full review to find out why it earned our Editors' Choice.



Review Roundup: Little Big Hard Drives
We know, you've heard this rant from us before, but its importance never changes: You must, must, must back up your data. And with the incredible amount of portable hard drives out there that pack oodles of memory into small--and pretty--packages, there's no excuse not to. These four drives are among the best in the game.



Review: A Smooth Phone for Texting
The Samsung Glyde SCH-U940--the latest text-centric phone for Verizon—will appeal to those who like keyboards that slide rather than flip. It incorporates a touch screen, but that's not its biggest selling point: its great QWERTY keyboard, Web browser, and slim profile stand out even more. Check out the full review on PCMag.com.



News: House Rams Through 'Copyright Czar' Bill
The House took swift action last Thursday on a measure that would further crack down on intellectual property violations. A Senate version of the bill was introduced in November by Sen. Patrick Leahy, a Vermont Democrat. The Senate Judiciary Committee held a hearing on the bill, S. 2317, but it has not seen any action since. Read the whole PCMag.com report for more details.

Plus: MPAA Wins Judgment from TorrentSpy
A federal judge ordered the BitTorrent tracker to fork over $110 million for infringing on the copyrights of movies and TV shows.
