In-built GPS and unlike Nokia it has a support of 3rd party application including Google Maps which has covered almost every city and village in some cases.

to confirm, it has stereo speakers, "distinctive Stereo Speakers " from the press release
its like the s500/w580 speaker, but instead of in the middle, theres a speaker on both left and right buttons....... if its anything like the s500/w580 speakers, should be quite loud. for those who want loudness!

FYI, there is a native version of google map for N-series which support internal GPS. There are also many nav software that support internal GPS as well. Other than bundled SE app, I doubt any existing 3rd party app will work with W760 internal gps unless the 3rd party developer port their apps.

check out the Engadget Sony press recap ^^^^^ theres a couple pics of the keypad on the slide show. sorta reminds me of that new

japan

slider when opened!
oh, the keypad looks much better built than the w580
shouldnt be any broken keypads in the w760..... fingers crossed

gets it right!

Still Se is continuing their 2007 strategy which will repeat 2007.
1)w760i is announced in jan 08 and it will be available only in q2 why so long?
gives enough edge for competitors
2)2.2 inch only?
3)NO autofocus(2007 strategy)
4)No flash?Led(2007 strategy)
5)gps with such a small screen?
6)Not only Nokia but even motorola have starting floating 16mln screens,SE same old resolution
7)No 3.5mm jack,even motorola has started to intoduce it in their phones.

No wifi(a phone which is to be release in q2 08 should have this,)(all n series devices of 08 will feture wifi)
9)now we have to see if SE really has done anything good in terms of sound and build quality,
otherwise w760i,wont be popular
Positive i see is only gps and best pic,and lets see how the price is set for this device.If its
priced as w910i,then sure would be a miss.
SE should really have release this device as competitor to Nokia 5600 in q4 would have made a good profit out of it.
This device is not so good for q2 08
