There was a reviews in Science a few years ago, 235:1093 and 238:985;
a little out of date now.  A newsletter put out by the Society for
American Archaeology is publishing an in-depth, 2 part review of 
bibliographic databases -- try SAA, 808 17th St. NW, Suite 200,
Wash DC 2006, ask about the issues of SAA Bulletin with both parts
of the review.

They focus on two big ones, ProCite and NoteBook, and one smaller
one called BIB.  Bib is much cheaper, works well but can't annotate.
