Walkman answer to video iPod
AS CONSPIRACY theories go, the INQ likes the latest rumour from The Business that Sony will launch its counter-attack to the recent release of the Apple video iPod via Sony Ericsson, the handset joint venture.
Why not have a device that can actually capture video as well as play back video clips? That's exactly what the latest smartphones can do. The basis for this curious leak appears to be somebody working in Sony Ericsson's UK R&D Labs.
Apparently, building on the fact that its smartphones looklike Sony Cybershot cameras from the rear, the new video Walkman will look like a regular video player with a large screen. However, a keyboard will slide out from under the screen when the user needs to make a phone call.
According to the publication, all will be revealed tomorrow evening (Monday 17th). Hmm. The INQ thought that was just a drinks party. But then Nokia did reveal its E series handsets at a drinks party last week.
Now i have m600i, w800i, w810i, k750i, p910i, s700i, k700i, z1010, p900, p800, t630, t610 z600, z200, t230, t100 and t68i... all im waiting for is the p990i and w950i. | |

But w900 manages to be a better video player than the new ipod - bigger screen, fast forward (ipod doesn´t have this), etc

the rumour says annoucement made on 17th Monday
so far we only see.....W900
meaning they are referring to W900 as an answer to iPOD video
Anyway if you go to Sonyericsson homepage portal and try to check out the job opening...there's no R&D facility in UK
The rumour have killed itself after all is reveal
But anyway the offered being made is quite eye catching in my opinion.
Entertainment is at the heart on those accs and phone announced |
