Today Sony Ericsson announced the new W580 WALKMAN music phone. This new handset stores up to 470 full-length tracks, has a 2.0 mega pixel camera tucked discretely within the slider itself, plus stacks of gaming, fun sports and entertainment features. Available in two colors, Style White or Urban Grey the handset features “flick” open the slider and the phone becomes a real attention grabber, revealing hot orange color accents and stunning light effects along the sides. At only 14mm thin, you wonder where the W580 finds room for all of that music, the camera and the fun applications. It is incredibly easy to get music from your computer into the phone, since the Disc2Phone music management software and USB cable all come in the box. You can even use TrackID™ to identify music tracks you don’t recognize, regardless of whether they are playing out loud or via the phone’s RDS FM Radio.
