Sony Ericsson just showcased both in Berlin and Taipei for its two new models in its Walkman phone lineup, the W960 and the W910. The W960i was expected to be a better W950i with added camera. But it’s created pretty much surprise to us.
One of the cool features is the phone carries a huge built-in memory that can hold up 8,000 songs. It carries a 2.6″ display and the keypad, which make it body feel slightly bigger. But it doesn’t give much burden as it weighs only 119g. It includes a Walkman player which you can control by the use of finger-touch navigation around playlists on the large screen or the Jog Dial control wheel on the left side. The 2.6-inch display serves as an excellent viewfinder for a 3.2 megapixel camera and as a widescreen for watching video in TV quality. It also provides WLAN 802.11b wireless network capability which you don’t find it on W950i.
The W910i is a slider but with really slim body, which measures only 12.5 mm for its thickness. It carries quite a number of interesting features despite its slim body. It’s a 3.5G cell phone that supports the high-speed HSDPA download. It’s built with shake awareness, thanks to the built-in shake sensor, which you can simply shake the phone or flick the handset for shuffling your music or skipping the tracks respectively. Its kind of shake control not only restricted to the music and phone, it can be applied to playing games too. The W960i supports the SensMe, which can discover music to match your mood and tempo. The W960i doesn’t come with huge built-in memory, but it has an M2 slot on the right side and it will ship a 1GB memory card.

[...] Sony seems to be working on a new gadget recently that is called “Rolly“. According to Engadget, Rolly in fact is a digital audio player that comes without display. The Rolly also contains only a single button that provides the two main functions only, which “play” and “stop”. The Rolly could be incorporated with some other Sony’s technology that allows you to control music without buttons as seen in those walkman phones. It could be Rolly loaded with the shake control software that would allow you to flick it right or left to advance or jump-back tracks; shake it to shuffle-up the music. So, what would Rolly finally be? More than a DAP? A music-focused Wii on wheels? [...]
