To date, no Android gadget has quite managed to outstrip the BlackBerry in terms of raw finger-grinding productivity potential. Sony Ericsson fancies making another try at besting the BlackBerry, though, with the Xperia Pro. With a slide-out Qwerty keyboard, it's an Android phone that's built for typing.

Maintain it in your trousers

On the left of the display, you may see a big checklist of all of your emails, while the fitting half will present a preview of the highlighted message. We found this system worked relatively well. Despite the fact that the screen's not very huge, it meant we were in a position to cruise around the e-mail app effectively, with out having to sacrifice the whole display screen to either the listing of emails or a preview of an e-mail's contents.
Android ahoy
