Sony Ericsson has announced the launch of the W205, an entry-level Walkman phone.The GSM/GPRS slider handset offers the Walkman music player, FM radio and TrackID music identifying software but M2 memory card support up to 2GB only.
"The W205 is perfect for those who love portable music but have never had the Walkman phone experience", said Timo Maassmann, marketing business manager at Sony Ericsson.
In addition, there's a 1.3-megapixel camera, Bluetooth connectivity, and "multiple" phone books to keep contacts.With support for GSM/GPRS 900/1800 and GSM/GPRS 850/1900 (W205a), this newest member’s forte may not be blazing fast speeds but to be a good Walkman phone, and it seems like it is, with all the usual Walkman-only features including TrackID, which can identify the number you liked and recorded on its FM radio.
The W205 can keep you entertained for up to 13 hours 30 mins or up to 9 hours of talktime on a single charge.
