Here at Mobile World Congress today, I headed over to the Toshiba stand to have a play with their new devices, the G710, G810 and G910.

I'll be posting my initial impressions shortly, but here's some videos too for you to cast your eye over (uploads in process).

  • Interests:The details of my life are quite inconsequential... very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it.

How many times can manufacturers make the same looking device?

The G810 looks to be really snappy in that video. The 910 looks a little bit laggy though.

Not sure they've got the Wow factor of the Xperia though.

What's 'meh' ?

He who asks a question looks foolish for 5 minutes. He who doesn't ask a question remains foolish forever.

I didn't like the 910 at all. Much worse than, say, the Xperia X1 because, most impotantly, it's a clamshell-only device (read: you can't really use Portrait mode on it).
