NEW YORK—At Pepcom's recent Digital Experience event, a wide variety of IT companies arrived to show off their latest digital cameras, netbooks, smartphones and other devices designed to make both regular and business life a bit more flashy and efficient.
Whether new smartphones from Nokia, a vehicle visor mount from BlackBerry, new mini-notebooks or netbooks from Lenovo, or backup hard-drives from Hewlett-Packard, a variety of gizmos made an appearance. Devices also ranged from pure entertainment to pure functionality, such as ultra-armored phones designed to be nearly as invulnerable as rugged laptops.

Billed by Nokia as "the world's most advanced mobile computer," the N97 bundles a number of smartphone advances into one compact package, including a touch-screen, a slide-out keyboard, massive amounts of memory capable of performing tasks from e-mail to games, and a video camera.
The device is Nokia's first to include a personalized home screen, where users can customize which widgets are displayed whenever they turn on their phone. These widgets, accessible through Nokia's Ovi Store, include not only social-networking apps such as Facebook and newswire services such as Associated Press and Bloomberg, but also productivity tools and games.
