Sony Ericsson W760, HSDPA Walkman!
Sony Ericsson W760 is one of 3 new handsets announced at CES, in Las Vegas 7-1-08. The W760 is meant to provide a lot of functionality when it comes to multimedia and games, for sure, but also sports tri-band HSDPA 3G data. This means that it will work on AT&T’s 850/1900MHz UMTS network as well as on the 2100MHz networks found in other parts of the world. If users happen to find themselves without 3G coverage, the W760’s quad-band GSM/EDGE support will make sure that they are not cut off.
Some of the more interesting features on the W760 include a built-in GPS with both Wayfinder and Google Maps support, stereo speakers, and what Sony Ericsson is calling “Motion Sensing Gaming”, a feature that lets games be controlled by moving the phone, rather than relying solely on d-pads and softkeys. Games on the W760 can be played in both portrait and landscape modes, and the multimedia functions of the phone also work in both modes. All it takes is a quick turn of the phone to switch from one view to the other.
Other features of note on this 103g slider phone include an FM radio, a 3.2 megapixel camera, a 1GB memory stick storage card, and Sony Ericsson’s “Tracker” fitness program, which makes use of the built-in GPS receiver. The W760 is slated to go on sale in Q2 of this year, though Sony Ericsson has not provided any carrier or pricing information.
