More music and more fun with your first Walkman™ phone

from: Press Release

07 April 2009

Bring
your beat to the street with the new Sony Ericsson W205 Walkman™. The
W205 makes the Walkman™ phone experience more accessible to consumers
and is perfect for those who want all the classic Sony Ericsson mobile
phone features while enjoying music on the go!

London – April 7, 2009 – Get the most out of your
best music and favourite radio channels with Walkman™ player, FM radio
and TrackID™ music recognition. The slider mobile phone comes with a
complete package of entertainment features and the power to set up
playlists to ensure you have the right music no matter the occasion.
Share your tunes with friends via the speaker phone function – if you
love your music they will too.

Need a change? Tune into the FM radio to listen to the latest news,
music, sport commentary and talk shows. Heard something you like? Use
TrackID™ to name that tune and artist, and you can even record a sample
of a song from the radio to use as your new ringtone.

“The W205 is perfect for those who love portable music but have
never had the Walkman™ phone experience.” said Timo Maassmann,
Marketing business manager at Sony Ericsson. “The W205 is a stylish
slider phone allowing you to enjoy your music wherever you are –
whether it’s on the bus, at college or chilling in the park. You can
also share more than music with the 1.3 megapixel camera. Capture the
action in stills or video and send them to friends via MMS or via
Bluetooth™. The multiple phonebook function is an added bonus - share
your phone with your family but keep your contacts separate from
theirs.”
