HTC Magic. The kebabdar

Ah, Google, is there anything you can’t do. Well, you probably couldn’t sort out our terrible financial situation, tidy our festering offices, or make the pretty barmaid in the local look at us with anything less than an unconcealed snarl. However, we forgive you, because there are so many things you can actually do that make us love you. And now you come in phone-sized packages and it makes us love you all the more. Fair enough, the G1 has been out for a while now, but that was kind of clunky and, well, clunky, so we’re happy to ignore that. But now we have the shiny new HTC Magic to play with you on, and it makes us giddy.

Giddy because, according to the HTC Official page, we can use you to …”find the coolest café in your city right from your Home screen with Google Search. Take a virtual tour of Barcelona with 360º panoramas using Google Maps with Street View. Or start up Google Talk to chat with your friend about the music video you just saw on YouTube…”

Erm, right, yeah, no. Giddy more because we can use the HTC Magic to find out how late the nearest pub in the city we never leave is open, take a virtual tour of the area surrounding the pub using Street View to find a decent looking kebab house then fail to convince the barmaid that we’re far better company on Google Chat than we are in real life. But anyway you get the idea, it’s everything that Google do well, on a phone. And, now without the G1′s kind of pointless keyboard, all delivered to you in a slim, lightweight format. Everyone’s a winner, right? Right. Read this HTC Magic Review for some other-than-Google facts. And does anyone fancy a Google Chat? No? Ah, screw you all.
