Hands-on with Sony Ericsson's W760
Of Sony Ericsson's three handsets launches today, the Walkman-branded W760 holds the most promise of landing over here thanks to its healthy dose of HSDPA in all the flavors we love. This slider is definitely well put together and felt rather hefty -- in an altogether pleasant way -- while we played with it during our brief visit this afternoon, though we could definitely find some room for improvement for the keys on the front. Nothing mind blowing, but we like the addition of GPS, the slider keypad is top notch, and being able to control the preloaded racing game by just rocking the phone, well, rawked. We're hoping we'll have some provider news in the near future, but until then, enjoy the gallery.

Interesting, me and my group developed a game design (racing with tilting cellphone) EXACTLY like that during a computer game design project at KTH, Sweden's largest institute of technology in Stockholm. Has SonyEricsson been reading our stuff? :)

Pretty cool. I need a new phone, and this might do nicely.

Now it just needs HSDPA on the 1700mhz band here in the US. :)

Poo, and I just got my W580i. Lets just hope this thing has a better battery life than the W580i since I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who hates to have to charge his phone after two days of use.
