Good: The 2012 Mazda Miata Special Edition offers one of the purest driving experiences available in a new car today. The PRHT lowers in under 12 seconds. Fuel economy is reasonable even when driving with zest.
Bad: Navigation, Bluetooth A2DP streaming, and USB/iPod connectivity are still missing from the Miata's option list.
Bottom Line: The 2012 Mazda Miata PRHT Special Edition adds rarity to one of the best drivers' cars of this generation, but the omission of the most basic cabin-tech options severely hurts its score. [Read more]

Good: The Bowers & Wilkins P3 headphones have an impressive design, strong performance, and an iPhone-friendly integrated microphone/remote. They also come with a hard-shell carrying case and an extra "straight-wire" cable that can be easily swapped in.
Bad: They're fairly pricey and the integrated, remote isn't compatible with all smartphones.
Bottom Line: The Bowers & Wilkins P3 headphones' impressive combination of design, sound quality, and features puts it near the top of the class for portable headphones in its price range. [Read more]

Good: The Verizon Wireless Jetpack 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot 890L is good-looking, well-designed, and offers a very fast 4G connection to up to 10 Wi-Fi devices. The router is also affordable for those willing to sign a new contract.
Bad: The Verizon Wireless Jetpack 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot 890L is comparatively bulky and has relatively short battery life for its size. It comes with limited and expensive data plans.
Bottom Line: The Verizon Wireless Jetpack 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot 890L is one of the best choices for travelers who can afford Verizon's limited and expensive data plans. [Read more]

Good: The 2012 Volvo C30 R-Design embodies hot hatchback performance with retro style. Its six-speed manual shifts with European precision and the car flies through the corners.
Bad: With separate displays for navigation and stereo, the cabin tech interface lacks integration, and the Bluetooth phone system is rudimentary.
Bottom Line: The 2012 Volvo C30 R-Design, enhanced by the Polestar power upgrade, offers excellent driving performance. Solid cabin electronics are marred by a confused interface. [Read more]
