Hasta La Gadget!

Sony Ericsson and T-Mobile have introduced the Equinox, a 3G-capable flip phone with built-in GPS and a 3.2 megapixel camera. It includes flashing pulse effects that you can assign to five favorite contacts, in Amber, Sapphire, Beryl, Diamond, and Amethyst. It also comes with changing wallpaper schemes.

Sony Ericsson preloads a video recorder app that uploads straight to YouTube, as well as an FM radio, stereo Bluetooth, and gesture control for rejecting incoming calls or silencing an alarm–perfect for simulating a snooze button without actually smashing your cell phone on the nightstand.

There’s also a 2.2-inch, 240-by-320-pixel LCD screen. Look for the Equinox at T-Mobile stores and online at www.t-mobile.com beginning today.
