Sony Ericsson busts out new music accessory range


Gotta have shiny kicks to go with the tailored suit, and just the same, you gotta have new speakers to go with that fresh Walkman kit. To that end, Sony Ericsson has unleashed a big gift basket's worth of music accessories that pair nicely with its latest Walkman models, among many other phones from its present and past. Skipping right past a handful of new wired headphones, we get first to the MPS-100, a pair of mini-speakers that plug right into your mobile for a relatively low-tech solution. Next we have the HBH-IS800, a shockingly discrete pair of A2DP earbuds (think of the Etymotic ety8, then think of the opposite of that) connected by a cord. Finally we come to the MBS-200 -- a shiny sphere with a penchant for belting out tunes mono-style via Bluetooth -- and the MBS-400 (pictured), essentially an MBS-200 times two for true stereo action. Everything should be available in the fourth quarter, meaning your Festivus gift shopping chores have pretty much just solved themselves.
