Sony Ericsson today announced the launch of the K660, an HSDPA
(‘mobile broadband’) enabled phone with clever features like
illuminated shortcut keys that only become active when surfing the Net,
and desktop tickers that provide regular updates from your favourite
websites; all designed to make Web browsing on the move as simple and
convenient as at your computer.
“Sony Ericsson’s vision is to offer ‘Generation Web’ a mobile
internet experience that’s rich, user-friendly and satisfying,” says
Martin Winkler, Head of Web Marketing at Sony Ericsson “This
Web-optimised phone is a clear step along that journey and will appeal
to individuals who are managing their busy lives and social networks
online, whether its arranging to meet up for a football match or
booking concert tickets.”
The K660 is expected to be released early 2008. Read on for more details.
The internet as you expect it to be!
The K660 makes browsing the mobile Web straightforward. The phone’s
navigation key serves as a “magnetic mouse pointer” when in Web mode,
letting you find your way around the page just as you would on a PC. It
indicates when a part of the page is clickable and where text input is
possible. You can even zoom in for a closer look at text or images.
Pan-and-zoom is just one of the Web shortcut keys that sit under
your thumb when viewing Web pages in landscape mode. The K660 also
sports a Bookmark function, a single click button that takes you back
to your Home Page and an ‘Enter Address’ shortcut; all intended to
guide you through the Web that much quicker. .
The information you need – on your terms
The K660 is engineered to ensure that you’re not kept waiting for the
news or content that matters to you. Music, video or email – HSDPA
technology lets you download it all at speeds that are up to four times
faster than regular 3G.
Get there with Google Maps for Mobile
Thanks to Google™Mapsfor Mobile, the K660 keeps you grounded wherever
you are, even in a strange city. Find your way instantly with
interactive maps that let you zoom in or out, or pan in any direction
to orient yourself. Enter your current location and destination and
receive point-to-point directions. No fuss, no diversions.
Shoot and share…instantly
The K660 squeezes a 2.0 megapixel camera into its compact frame, making
it easy to capture the moment. And since the Web is at your fingertips,
it’s just a few clicks to upload your picture to your blogsite and
share it instantly with friends and family.
Although packing a whole host of Web applications, this phone is not
just for suits. Available in two stand-out colours, a funky
‘lime-on-white’ and a stylish ‘wine-on-black’ colour, the K660 will
earn you admiring glances no matter where you are.
The K660 is a UMTS/HSDPA 2100 and GSM/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 phone that will be available in selected markets from Q1 2008.
