Introduction
Walkman. The brand created by Sony has become a stand-alone concept, as an armada of Sony Ericsson phones is hitting stores nowadays. W800i was the first of the kind, this has become a real legend, and was followed by phones with all kinds of design and features, but most importantly: they are all musical.
W800i has been so good at its time (considering at least its musical features), that there wasn’t much to improve on it, as the first Walkman has already reached high, both in terms of software and accessories, so this could have only been decreased by leaving out autofocus from many models and some cheaper models don’t have the earpiece headset characteristic of the series. Altogether this family of phones is still a success story in the life of Sony Ericsson and they, naturally, don’t want to end it yet.
They don’t want to end it so much, that I already have W760i, announced at CES, in my hands, which tries to introduce a new line in the Walkman series, namely navigation. They have already had similar tries, as in the case of the already tested W890i, Google Maps was included in the list of functions, but this is the first model to have a GPS receiver. Furthermore, W760i is a really fine handset from other points of view too, it is well though-out and nicely designed.
