Sony Ericsson has just announced its finalphoneof the year – the W705 Walkman.
It’s an aluminium-crafted slider with HSDPA, Wi-Fi, GPS and a 3.2-megapixel camera and LED flash.
It’s just a shame that, once again, it’s amusic phonewith noheadphonesocket.
It instantly chokes us with bitter tears.
We just don’t understand Sony Ericsson’s logic on this matter, and never have.
In fact no-one has.
Apart from that though, we think this could be a cracking handset.
If you bought a cat and it came without legs, you’d take it back.
The same is true for music phones without headphone sockets.
So come on, guys, make 2009 the year of 3.5mm.
Then maybe in 2010 we can have agood version of Windowskthxlol!
Expect Q1 2009 availability on Orange, with prices to be announced in the new year.
We’ll have hands-ons with detailed specs for you as soon as humanly possible.
