Siemens SXG75 – New phone with a shiny new acronym
September 7th, 2005
Today, finally, we hear the latest release of the Motorola ROKR, aka “the iTunes phone” – and here I am banging on about the Siemens SXG75! But don’t worry, the ROKR will be discussed shortly. For now, though, I want to go on about a seriously interesting phone!
Although it doesn’t sound special (no flashy brand, and ‘SXG75′ is hardly memorable), you’ve probably never heard of it, it looks…well, I’m sure it’s mother loves it, and Siemens have sold their mobile phone business to BenQ (that’s BenQ, not BandQ!), this phone has an amazing set of features. Not content with wireless calls, video streaming (it’s a 3G phone), taking pictures (2 megapixel) and playing sounds (MP3 player – oooh, there’s a surprise!), this phone has one more trick up its sleeve – SatNav! Yes, thanks to Siemens, you can now add GPS to the loooooong list of acronyms being squeezed into these tiny boxes.
I’ll talk more about this phone, and about the implications of adding GPS to mobile phones, shortly. For now, though, read all about the Siemens SXG75 from the horse’s mouth (i.e. Siemens’s press release!)
