After the success of its first affordable Walkman handset, Sony Ericsson has today announced a new beginner Walkman phone known as the W200. Launched at CES in Las Vegas, the Sony Ericsson W200 is targeted at the US market, where budget handsets tend to do better than their more expensive counterparts.
While the Sony Ericsson W200 is not big on features, it has everything covered for a good music experience. A dedicated Walkman button provides easy access to your audio stored on Memory Stick Micro (M2) cards, which are currently available up to 1GB in size. Bored of the music you have with you? An FM radio is also available, which can be used with the handset's speakerphone as an alarm clock.
Music is not the W200's only trick, though, as the handset also features a VGA resolution camera with 4x digital zoom. A full HTML compliant browser is also present, and the device's PIM applications can be easily synchronized with a desktop PC.
The Sony Ericsson W200 will be available in two versions, one for the Americas and one for Europe, starting Q2 2007. The two versions will be available in two color schemes, Rhythm Black and Pulse White.
