Honest 836 Report post Posted July 31, 2008 Sony Ericsson G705 in Two Weeks? Rumors about Sony Ericsson phones never seem to end. The latest buzz is that the handset maker has a new slider phone, dubbed the Sony Ericsson G705, up its sleeve and is expected to announce it in just two weeks, writes GSMArena. The G705 is said to feature a 2.4-inch screen, a 3 megapixel camera (sadly, with no auto-focus), built-in GPS receiver and WiFi. Also, the camera is backed by a LED flash rather than Xenon and will support geo-tagging thanks to the built-in GPS receiver. In terms of memory, the G705 will pack 128 MB of internal memory and M2 memory card expansion slot. However, there is no word yet on the pricing and availability. For more on the specs and other information about this new handset we all will have to wait for the official launch. Courtesy : Techtree Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
