It's just an S600 for the American market with Walkman capabilities. But I don't understand, it needs expandable memory to be a good walkman?
Hmmm.

aah 256MB ... I missed that.
U see 256MB in really small mp3-players today. W600a is really big compared to them in size.
But hey it's a phone with cam and mp3 player.. so 256MB is OK I guess ... 1,3MP pics are not that big after all...
And u can change the mp3s in it every day thru connection to PC ..
So looks like a good phone 
Is it only for the US though? :| |
