Sony Ericsson W960
The line between Smartphones and Walkmans disappears once with the appearance of Sony Ericsson W960. This is the first mobile of the SE Walkman series that comes with Symbian v9.1 UIQ 3.0 operating system (for the touch screen display) and also features WiFi connectivity.
Sony Ericsson W960 started shipping in the 3Q of 2007, at a recommended price of 500 Eur ($700) including VAT. If you got some penny left after the Hollydays, W960 is a unique device that will surely turn a lot of heads.

Tech-talks
At first glance you can not help noticing the large LCD touchscreen (2.6` Inch), that is so not typical for the Walkman series. There is no memory card interface, but who needs memory extension when W960 has 8Gb on board memory.
Like all the features enunciated up to now were not enough, Sony-Ericsson also adds a 3.2 megapixels camera with autofocus and flash, plus a VGA video call camera. this whole feature set fits in a Vinyl black slim casing, that shows both elegance and style and measures only 109 x 55 x 16 mm, W960 weighting 116g.

Phone rates very high on all features except the battery life. Am an average user but have to charge it everyday. Thats without listening to walkman. Also, no choice for profiles which were very convenient in my old SE K750.
Micro SD?
