Does your spouse work outside, or in a cubicle? Are they on the ground floor, or the corner office? Whatever their business, here's the phone that will help them get ahead.

Editors' note: Check out our entire series of Holiday gift picks.

Your nine-to-fiver saves the fancy suit for special occasions and wears jeans and steel-toed boots to work, so she'll need a phone that won't break if she drops it in a puddle. Verizon's G'zOne can make calls three feet underwater, but still packs advanced features like a 2-megapixel camera and high-speed EV-DO network support. Read full review…

If your office maven doesn't rely on Windows, why should his phone? Instead, he wants colorful icons and easy one-click access to the features he uses most. He wants the Palm OS-powered Treo 700p, which packs the power and high-speed networking of its windows brethren into the popular Treo form. It even has a higher-resolution screen than the Windows devices. Read full review…


For the business formal type: Samsung SGH-i607 Blackjack

Your executive wouldn't be caught dead cramming a huge phone into her Prada bag. Samsung's stylish and slim Blackjack (also known as the SGH-i607) accesses her Exchange or Good Mobile messaging e-mail account through Cingular's speedy 3.5G network, but won't feel like she's carrying around a brick. Best of all, it makes great sounding calls. Read full review…


For the traveling salesman: T-Mobile Dash

Since your roaming salesman is never too far from a Starbucks anyway, why not get him a phone that can take advantage of all the Wi-Fi hotspots he sees? The T-Mobile Dash means he won't have to break out his laptop every time he checks his e-mail, and he won't have to worry about roaming or coverage, as long as there's a wireless Internet connection around the corner.

For the jet-setting business person: Cingular 8525

Your globe-trotter racks up some serious frequent flier miles, so she needs a phone that can keep up. The Cingular 8525 will let her stow the laptop on long flights. 3.5G HSDPA networking is a global standard, so she'll have high-speed access from her phone or laptop anywhere she goes; and Wi-Fi means she can hop onto the wireless networks in airports easily.
