Sony Ericsson is one of the official partners of the Transsyberia Rally 2008. Sony Ericsson will be sending out its C702 Cyber-shot phone on the over 4,300-mile long rally from Russia through Siberia into Mongolia.

During this long rally, the rally teams will be blogging from the C702, and every photo they take of the event will be geo-tagged immediately for the world to follow. Apart from that, the C702 is dust and water splash resistant, making it ideal for an event like this.

You can read more about the Transsyberia Rally 2008 at the official website.

It is nice to see SE giving a bit of attention to handsets that can take a bit of punishment. It's a niche that is actually quite popular, lots of people work in jobs that require a tough phone or lead lifestryles that would warrant such a handset.

the only thing that puts me off is the cam's focal length only 4mm also being only a mid-range handset it is missing a few camera options.

But then it is a mid-range handset so I wouldn't really expect it to be absolutely uber. Having said that, it would be nice to see a more rugged high-end offering.

High end isn't meant for rugged though... why would you want to pay big £ and have something that can bash about? high end is meant to be sleek, designer and shinny tongue.gif

number1,

What's so bad about a 4 mm focal length?

Yeah, but I've never quite seen any explanation from him on this subject. I'm quite eager to see it.
