I have been reading 43 Folders since early Dec04, and it is pretty good site for getting new ideas on how-to-do David Allen’s Getting Things Done (Getting).
The author has listed some "decisions" on how a vendor might get their tool or product evaluated via his blog. His write-up is pretty comprehensive.
Todd Cochrane at GeekNewsCentral also talks about this topic of bloggers doing reviews in this post.

As a side note, I have been trying to get a company to allow me to do a review of potential podcast tool. They are a traditional “audio” company, and thus are thinking pretty old school. To review thier product they want me to pay for it + shipping.
When I use to work for Pen Computing Magazine (pencomputing.com) and for my own newsletter (NewtNews), I use to get all kinds of stuff for free evaluation. If I liked it, I could typically buy it, but I definitely never paid for anything up front. – SteveLikeLike
