All Googled up

You wait ages for one Google phone, then two come along at once. Before T-Mobile’s G1 hits the stores, though, check out Sony Ericsson’s G705 smartphone, which comes with a huge array of Internet-savvy features to get you surfing the web in no time.

It’s got all you need to make the most of the mobile Internet. For a start you’ll no longer have to strain your eyes just to look at the thing – it packs a large screen handy for viewing your Facebook messages at a glance. Email too, thanks to ActiveSync, which zaps emails from your computer to your phone – so you need never again miss the chance to enlarge your “manhood”.

It’s no slouch either, with turbo 3G giving things a much-needed speed boost. And if you’re hankering for Internet fame, then Sony Ericsson’s linked up with search giant Google to add quick YouTube uploading.

And if you need to find something real quick there’s also a shortcut key that’ll take you straight to Google search. The G705 is also handy at keeping you in the loop. Its RSS tool isn’t just any reader – it stores all your feeds and zaps them straight to your standby screen so you can peep your feeds at a glance any time. Well, anytime from next month, because that’s when it goes on sale.
