Casio G'zOne Boulder / Reviews

I'm not going to mince words. This phone is orange. Really orange. Like in the same obnoxious vein as the color options for a new Hummer. But if you can overlook this (as I eventually did), then you'll probably enjoy Casio's new G'zOne, dubbed the "Boulder." That's right - this angular, candy colored handset is the offspring of the Gadgetlab's crumpled Type-V, Type-S, and Type-SL review units.

The Boulder isn't another rugged rehash, though. In fact, Casio finally threw a curve by including some fairly useful multimedia features. Welcome additions like music playback, a more powerful (but still lacking) camera, and zippy EV-DO connectivity fatten up this phone's already rock solid resume.

Ohhhh, but the Boulder doesn't get a pass on these merits alone.
