Sony Ericsson today announced the W660i - a classic-design 3G Walkman phone available in Record Black and Rose Red
Like several of the latest Walkman phones, the W660i features TrackID. If users ever need to identify a piece of music that they don't recognise, simply record a few seconds of the track, either via the microphone or by tagging a clip straight from the phone's FM Radio, and TrackID will send the clip to the Gracenote Mobile MusicID database. This quickly identifies the track, the artist and album and relays the information back to the W660i.
The W660i can store up to 470 full-length songs (in eAAC+ format) on the 512 MB Memory Stick Micro (M2) supplied. As collections grow, consumers can expand the memory as needed and, by way of example, a 1 GB Memory Stick Micro (M2) will hold up to 1,000 tracks.
As well as high speed music download and web surfing, the W660i can deliver RSS feeds straight to the phone's desktop to keep users up-to-date on the latest news and gossip. It also packs a 2.0-megapixel camera and Picture Blogging capability, allowing users to capture that picture and upload it instantly to their personal blog site - all at 3G speed.
The W660i is a UMTS 2100 and GPRS 900 / 1800 / 1900 device and will be available in selected markets from Q2 2007.
