Sony Ericsson today announced its upcoming W200 Walkman phone, which has a reported music playback battery life of 18 hours. The included 128MB Memory Stick Micro card and 27MB of internal memory can hold only about four full albums of MP3 or AAC tracks, but pop a 2GB stick into the built-in slot and you've got yourself a "music phone that compliments your existing MP3 player." The W200 has a dedicated Walkman key for quick and easy access to your music via Walkman Music Player 1.0.

Available in Rhythm Black or Pulse White in Q2 2007, the W200 features a 65K-color screen (128 x 160), FM tuner with 20 customizable presets, speakerphone that allows you to use the radio as an alarm, HTML web browser, and VGA camera with 4x digital zoom.

Pricing hasn't been announced yet, but get this: you can even use the W200 to call people! It's like an actual cell phone or something.

One nice thing about the Walkman phones is that they don't require SonicStage, btw.

Walkman phone? Why do people still buy that?

We have separate mp3 players already, Walkman phone lost its first attempt to combine phone and mp3 player together harmoniously.

It's just lame.

  • SanDisk Sansa Clip
    SanDisk Sansa Clip

    The Clip has a fantastic little form factor; cheap in build quality but very rugged. The interface is simple and relatively straight forward. The features on the clip are more or less average, mostly identical to the Sansa Express. However, what earns this player a spot in Editor’s Choice is the superb sound quality; you will not find another player at this size and price that can match it. Read the full review or go ahead and buy it.

  • Samsung P3
    Samsung P2

    The Samsung P2 was a success and the P3 is a very welcome and substantial update. Samsung has paid close attention to users on P2 issues and made great strides in addressing and improving most of them. The best feature of the P3 is its native video support. Most content you thow at it will playback without conversion on the great looking screen. Stop by the Samsung P3 forums for more details or check out our indepth P3 review.

  • Microsoft Zune 120

    Sure, many of us are not big fans of the walled garden, but there are a lot of great things going on with the Zune- sturdy hardware, ultra easy to use user interface, and a media player that is worthy of editor’s choice. The best part of the Zune is the constant firmware and software updates virtually giving you a new device at each major refresh. You can check out the latest Zune 120 & 16 review or stop by our Zune forums for the latest.

    The D2 is a fantastic sounding PMP with a very nice looking screen and a tone of features. One of the best features of the D2 is the SDHC slot allowing you to add another 32GB to this small wonder. The touch interface does not lend well to on the move operation, but it is not enough to keep it from being an editor’s choice. You can find usually find it at Amazon for the best price and before to check out the review.

    Phonak Audéo PFE offer outstanding clarity and precision; natural, dynamic mids and treble, and decent bass for a single armature in-ear phone. They handle dense, complex music very well. The PFE work well with most acoustic and some electronic music genres, but bassheads might have to look at other alternatives. They're great for sports as well, since they fit very securely. Check out our review.
