News now of the Sony Ericsson W705, the first Walkman phone from Sony Ericsson to feature Wi-Fi. A cool, if slightly ungainly-looking slider phone, the W705 is designed with fast connectivity in mind, to enable people to download their tunes (ideally from Sony Ericsson's own music store) wherever they are.
Obviously Wi-Fi will help, but if you're outside of a Wi-Fi hotspot, the W705 also comes with HSDPA, meaning you can download your tunes at 3.2Mbps wherever you are (unless you're with T-Mobile, who for some odd reason seem to have a blackspot in Slough and Devon!)
No GPS, unfortunately, although it does come with Google Maps. Apparently the W705 can triangulate your position from the radio masts that are used to connect the device to the mobile network, but this isn't as accurate as GPS.
However, the W705 is aimed firmly at music lovers, which is why there's no GPS support (Sony Ericsson have always focused on doing one feature well, rather than throwing everything and the kitchen sink into their phones); that said, the company has omitted a standard 3.5mm headphone jack from the W705, which seems a bit odd for a music phone.
The camera's the usual 3.2 megapixel, you can watch YouTube vids on its Web browser, and the W705 will be reasonably thin at 14mm.
Nothing jaw-dropping, then, but with a price that shouldn't cause your local bank to fail (unless it manages that of its own accord!), it should make a good value package when it's launched in the new year.
