...ever wondered whether the carrier or phone maker has more control over the cell phone in your pocket, let me make it clear: it's the carrier. Last week, I reviewed an LG phone that Cingular launched to run on its high-speed digital network. This week, I looked at Chocolate, the hyped-up LG phone Verizon Wireless introduced in order to draw more attention to its V Cast Music service (LINK).

His latest hit song, "Hasbi Rabbi" (My Lord is Sufficient), is the top-selling ring tone in the region, heard whenever cell phones go off in cabs and cafes from Cairo to Damascus. But the real sensation is Yusuf's slickly produced, MTV-style music videos, which consistently register as the top most-requested on Middle Eastern music TV channels. The videos depict the singer as a model Muslim citizen who visits the mosque, tends...
