It's good to talk... and talk... and talk...

O2 has launched its latest own-brand handset, which boasts a battery that would make the Duracell bunny jealous.
O2 is aiming to target the SME segment with the stripped-down 2G phone, known as the Jet.
The feature-light Jet is geared to voice rather than email users, boasting 540 hours of standby time - more than three weeks - and almost 10 hours of talk-time.
Battery life is still a very big issue for gadgets of all types as users want to spend as long as possible on the move without being forced to recharge their devices.
The Jet phone is the second new handset to bear the O2 brand of late. The first in the series, the O2 Ice, is a consumer device aimed at the pay-as-you-go market.
The Jet will be sold on pay-as-you-go for £59.99.
