AT&T Offers Sony
Ericsson W760a Walkman
AT&T
and Sony Ericsson have announced the availability of the Sony Ericsson
W760a Walkman phone, which is claimed to be the first 3G Walkman phone in
the U.S. The W760a promises to deliver on-the-go entertainment and music
experiences. It features an accelerometer that gives customers the ability
to interact with the device for enhanced music and gaming. Its price:
$129.99.
The
integrated accelerometer allows customers to shake or tilt the W760a to
fast-forward to the next song or to simulate motion while playing video
games. Dedicated A and B gaming buttons also allow customers extra control
and interactivity.
"Why use
buttons when motion can guide mobile entertainment?" said Carlton Hill,
vice president of Devices and Product Development for AT&T's wireless
operations. "Whether using the W760a to play a bowling game by mimicking
the action or simply shaking it to listen to the next song in your
playlist, the W760a can follow your lead."
Joining
the W580 and recently launched W350 Sony Ericsson Walkman phones at AT&T,
the W760a phone integrates the Walkman music player with the full suite of
AT&T Mobile Music applications, including Napster Mobile, eMusic Mobile,
Music ID, and XM Radio.
Its
features include mobile email, instant messenger, full HTML Web browsing,
a 3.2 megapixel camera, and AT&T Navigator for turn-by-turn directions and
mapping functions.
The W760a
will be available for $129.99 after a two-year agreement and
mail-in-rebate. It comes in red, black and silver, with silver exclusive
to RadioShack for a limited time.
The
device users can use it in over 200 countries.
