W960 Walkman phone in stores before the holiday

Remember the Sony Ericsson W960? The one with an 8GB storage, WiFi and touch screen? There’s good news for you people waiting for the W960 Walkman® phone! An announcement from Sony Ericsson said that it will start to ship from November 2007. The W960, a potent combination of slim UMTS and Wi-Fiâ„¢ enabled phone with high performance media player, will be available in selected markets across the globe in time for the Christmas season.

The W960 was unveiled in June 2007 and marks a next generation of Walkman® phones. With room for up to 8,000 songs* and finger-touch navigation around playlists on the large touch screen, the days of taking an MP3 player and a phone with you are definitely over. The 2.6” display also serves as an excellent viewfinder for a 3.2 megapixel camera and as a widescreen for watching video in TV quality.

Music Desk Stand MDS-65 makes the perfect partner for a hi-fi duet
Sony Ericsson’s Music Desk Stand MDS-65 will also hit stores at around the same time. The perfect musical complement to the W960 and many other Sony Ericsson phones, the MDS-65 lets you charge the phone while experiencing high-fidelity sound on its four full-range neodymium-magnet speakers. And when you’re on the move, the MDS-65 runs on batteries so you can use it anywhere you like – from barbecue to beach. With its sleek, futuristic silver finish, it can’t help but draw admiring glances.

The Sony Ericsson W960 Walkman® phone is UMTS 2100-GSM/GPRS 900/1800/1900 and will be available in Vinyl Black from November 2007.

The Music Desk Stand MDS-65 is now available.
