Sony Ericsson shakes things up with its new quad-band W580i Walkman phone, introducing an innovative "shake to shuffle" feature that randomly chooses another song stored on your phone with just a flick of the wrist. This thin, slider-style phone also features a 2-megapixel camera/camcorder, fast Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR connectivity with music streaming, Memory Stick Micro expansion, Web browser for viewing full Internet sites, email access, an FM radio with RDS, and EDGE data support.
The W580i is a sleek, slim, streetstyle slider phone - and a portable
music device too. Tempting to touch, designed to impress.When you're out
and about, you can have your favorite music with you wherever you go.
And your picture library and favorite Web sites. W580i is for active
people.It's all in your moves. With Shake control, you select a song
from your playlist randomly at the flick of your wrist.In the W580i kit,
you get a stereo headset and everything you need to get your music from
your computer to your phone. Connect, choose and transfer. The W580i
borrows a few design traits from the W880i that was announced at 3GSM.
But even so, the W580i does have few of its own distinctive tricks up
its 14mm thick sleeves. Most noteable of which is the curved body
section at the bottom of the device that caused the Fast Port
power/headset jack to be moved up to the side of the device.As a Walkman
phone, the W580i obviously caters to the music lover. The device ships
with a 512MB Memory Stick Micro card that can hold just short of 500
songs when filled up by a PC running the included Sony Ericsson
Disc2Phone software. A supplied USB cable will let the W580i be used as a
USB mass storage device when connected to a personal computer. For
those that prefer their music coming over the airwaves, the W580i also
sports an RDS compatible FM radio. If, instead, you prefer to have your
phone doing the transmitting, the W580's built-in Bluetooth stereo
support will allow it to supply tunes to a pair of wireless headphones -
not included.Other features of note in the W580i include the 2" 262k
color display, a 2 megapixel fixed-focus camera, and a pedometer for
keeping track of your workouts. In terms of software, the W580i sports a
full RSS news feed reader, 3D Java games, and the Track ID application
that lets users identify songs by simply holding their phone up to an
audio source - like a car stereo speaker
Flight delays, power outages, extended trips. You can't always recharge
your Blackberry phone when you'd like to. But with an extra original
battery on ha...
