Cingular has quietly launched the Sony Ericsson W300i, a clamshell Walkman branded handset. Despite little promotion, Cingular experienced strong sales for the W600i (no longer available) and Sony Ericsson has been anxiously awaiting more Walkman launches in the US. The W810i is still expected to launch on Cingular in the near future.
Features of the W300i include:
WireFly is selling the W300i for free with a new 2-year service activation.
Why such a low key launch?
Sure, it is just a lower-end phone, but it does what it does VERY well. Better than any Nokia phone I've had.
Love the 300i. FM radio, MP3 player, looks cool, and easy to use. Nice size. Did not come with M2 stick or USB cable as advertised by Sony...But picked it up for 19.99 at Radio Shack and no need to hassle with the $75 mail-in rebate.
Love the design of this phone.
