Three different editors at Wood Magazine test lithium-powered palm-size cordless drivers -- including an earlier version of the Skil iXO2 -- by driving 2-inch drywall screws into a pine 2x4 without pilot holes. The Skil is judged most comfortable to use.

Review: Thumbs-down for palm-sized cordless screwdrivers, Editors of Consumer Reports, Mar. 2006
This detailed, well-illustrated review of the Skil iXO2 is valuable because it compares this model with its predecessor, the Skil iXO. The review notes some improvements: an LED light, an improved trigger design and a more comfortable grip.
