Sony Ericsson today announced the W200 Walkman phone, a music device that can store up to 37 full length tracks (or about four albums). This latest addition to Sony Ericsson's musical family will be available in two colours (Rhythm Black & Pulse White) and has stamina for up to 18 hours of music listening. 
To make it easy to get to music, the W200 features a dedicated Walkman key that goes straight to the Walkman player menu. For sharing music with friends, a 128 MB Memory Stick Micro (M2) card lets users do this in an instant. With memory cards up to 1 GB available, each card will hold up to 255 full-length tracks.
To catch up with the news or listen to live music, the FM Radio allows consumers to pre-set up to 20 stations. Listen-in via the color-matched Stereo Headset HPM-64; the first to feature Bass Reflex, an innovation that preserves audio quality when the bass is turned up. Users can even use the radio as an alarm clock, using the in-built speakerphone rather than the stereo headphones.
As well as being a music player, the W200 is a fully featured multimedia device. It features a VGA camera with 4x digital zoom and integrated photo album so consumers can capture and store spontaneous snapshots, or share them with friends and family. It is also fully equipped for video messaging, offers a full HTML web browser and delivers business-friendly tools such as push email and PC synchronization.
