"The W600 demonstrates the vision when we combined Sony and Ericsson," said Miles Flint, president of Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications."Now consumers can use their mobile phone to easily access their favourite music any where any time." The W600 is the second in a series of Walkman phones that deliver an open-standard-based digital music player for the mass market. Features:
The W600 can store up to ten full length CDs or between 80 and 120 songs depending on bit rate. The Walkman phone also has a unique music / flight mode setting that turns off the mobile phone transmitter, so that users can listen to music anywhere at anytime. The W600 will play music for up to 15 hours with the phone on, or 30 hours with the phone in music mode The W600 supports Bluetooth wireless functionality to connect other Bluetooth enabled devices such as photo printers and headsets or for peer-to-peer gaming. USB plug and play allows consumers to move images, music, and video between a PC and the W600. The W600 will be available in the American Market at beginning of the fourth quarter 2005. CommentsThis phone looks great and has great features i'm a big fan of sony ericsson and most the phones i buy are sony ericsson i will probably one day get this phone Posted by: Tobi at June 14, 2005 03:09 PM I'm personally not interested until they've got ~5gb in a phone...I don't want to have to switch out music all the time. Posted by: Rich at June 14, 2005 04:53 PM What's the fuss about this W600 thing? Haven't you heard about some phones called Treo 600 and, specially, Treo 650. There is NOT one single feature in the W600 which is not already included in the Treo 650 since MONTHS ago. Please, don't talk about 'unique' features when they are really OLD. Posted by: Carlos Sicilia at June 14, 2005 05:11 PM how much does this mofo cost? i wish i could get it right now be awsome Posted by: motorolafan at June 14, 2005 05:12 PM Drool.....no doubt now that the high-end phones are going to all be integrating the MP3 player functionality.... Posted by: jlewin It does not even have to be a Treo (by the way those things are bigger than buicks). There are "smart" phones the same size as that sony (like my audiovox) and they run windows 2k3 CE !!! They can do just about anything a laptop can....with camera ofc...
