Hands-on with Sony Ericsson's splash-resistant C702
Almost impossible to cover the pile of handsets Sony Ericsson unleashed for all those attending MWC, though we're trying. As we mentioned, the C702 is pretty standard candybar equipment but with a glug of GPS added to the mix. Fit and finish are pretty nice here as is the screen quality, and hey, splash resistant, too? Why not. Follow the link to see a pile more pics.%Gallery-15820%

Two for the Cyber-shot crowd: Sony Ericsson intros C702 and C902
So that rumored K820 has turned out to be the C902, and that waterproof model? Not so much waterproof -- just "splash and dust resistant" -- and it's the C702. Starting on the bottom, the 3.2 megapixel C702 touts one-handed camera use for those spur-of-the-moment shots when you're doing something, like, totally extreme that would necessitate the use of a splash resistant phone to begin with. GPS also finds its way on board, and Sony Ericsson is bundling Google Maps for Mobile (good call) to get the mapping done. Moving up, the C902 is a 5 megapixel beast with autofocus, face detection, a generous flash, and 160MB of storage before you add anything on with the Memory Stick Micro slot. Both models feature Cyber-shot branding and will be available in the second quarter; they'll come in two versions -- one with UMTS 2100 and one rocking quadband EDGE alone. Look for the C702 in Speed Black and Cyan Blue, while the C902 will do its thing in Swift Black and Luscious Red (pictured).
