Those looking to upgrade or enter the world of 3G will love K610im announced today. K610im is Sony Ericsson's first GSM/UMTS phone to offer full support for i-mode

"We are extremely pleased that a leading brand vendor such as Sony Ericsson is to offer market leading handsets with full support for i-mode services. Sony Ericsson has achieved an excellent integration of the i-mode service portfolio and the result is a compelling consumer offering." said Mr. Takeshi Natsuno, Senior Vice President, Managing Director, Multimedia Services, NTT DoCoMo, Inc.

The innovative i-mode service delivers a whole new experience in connected mobile applications such as iMail, Web browsing and iMMS. Viewing multimedia is better, faster and easier, thanks to Web pages and content specially formulated for i-mode. Lighter pages give faster download speeds and users are given access to a host of i-mode™ sites and content.

Sony Ericsson K610imi-mode also helps you get even more from K610im's impressive functionality. You can shoot great pictures with the phone's 2 Megapixel camera and send them in high quality as as e-mail as well as iMMS messages. The supplied 64MB Memory Stick (M2) will store up to 175 photos, and can be expanded to 1GB, and K610im has everything you need for fast, responsive video calling.

K610im appeals to the design conscious who want a 3G phone that is as compact and lightweight as a fashionable 2G handset. Sony Ericsson has gained a reputation for delivering 3G phones that closely match the size and weight of their 2G predecessors and K610im takes this a step further, delivering full 3G functionality, a highly specified camera and intuitive music player, all in a phone that weighs just 89g.

One of Sony Ericsson's most versatile 3G handsets yet, K610im's highly specified music player is equipped for over-the-air downloads. You can store up to 60 tracks in the new eAAC+ format with the Memory Stick (M2), and a USB cable and music software is also included for transferring tracks to and from your PC.

The K610im is a dual mode UMTS (2100MHz) - GPRS 900/1800/1900 handset for i-mode markets in Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and will ship in Q3

I agree w/ bigguy, SE definitely has serious problems considering the joystick on most of their fone models but I suppose this one does not use the same joystick model as in for example the k750. The joystick on my k750 does not look too good now--the painted-on metalic finish on it has chipped off (thanks a lot sweaty fingers!) :(

i HAVE A SE w600i and i have a lot more functions than this 3g phone. A Serious Picture Editor, an only of his kind Video Editor, Photo and Video Camera Flash, FM Radio with RDS, OK, no memory expansion but 256MB Memory inside. Only 1.3 Mega Pixel Vs 2.0 Megapixels but what about the quality ?? They are far ahead badder than almost the cheapest Camera avaliable. And they have one of the better quality phone cammera !!!!. So I will wait a little more...

Bet the joystick will break like on all my other SE phones. T68i, K700 and K750i. Each an amazing phone. I loved them all and then the joystick went on all of them. When will they learn to make a joystick which is BIGGUY proof, eh?
