Sony Ericsson's new W600 Walkman Phone

Sony Ericsson W600

So we hit up that Sony Ericsson press event this morning and caught a gander at their new W600 Walkman cameraphone (among other things). Unlike its candybar older brother the W800, the W600 doesn't actually sport external media by way of the MemoryStick Duo slot (sigh), but it does have 256MB integrated memory, MP3 and AAC support, a standard 1/8th-inch stereo headphone jack, FM tuner, 1.8-inch 220 x 176 pixel 262k color display, 1.3-megapixel camera, stereo speakers, Bluetooth, and tri-band EDGE support (wonder which carrier this is going to?). Though it's not due until the 4th quarter, we got to play around with it for a little while—we were into the swivel form-factor, but on the by and by the phone felt a little toyish, by no means as robust as the s710a. That screen though! Oh boy oh boy does Sony Ericsson know how to get a nice lookin' LCD in there, even despite the occasionally lower resolutions. Lots more pics beneath!
