Sony Ericsson Yari Available Now

Sony Ericsson’s hands-free gaming phone, Yari, has just been launched in Australia. Get ready to look like a fool in public!

The phone, which boasts a 5MP camera, 3G and dedicated gaming shortcut buttons, Yari is like the Wiimote of the mobile phone world. It comes with dedicated games that use motion and video capture to play rather than traditional button pressing. That appeals to me like spending a week in the desert with nothing to drink but chilli juice, but if it sounds like your kettle of fish, the phone will retail for $549.
