It most certainly does NOT have autofocus! However, the camera quality is quite good (it must be the same sensor from the K610i) so some people won't care. After all, it's a lot quicker to take photos. If it does become a cheap entry-level Walkman, it will be one of the best pre-pay phones money can buy. The small memory card is a good thing too, as 2GB cards are now around £70 (original, non fake) so I think there will be people out there wanting to pay even less for the phone to get NO memory card.
Anyway, just to confirm, it essentially has the W800i firmware on it. No NetFront, no over the air updates and probably no Flash Lite themes. I haven't checked to see if it works as a proper USB drive (like the W810i, W550i and W900i) but I'd be surprised to be honest.
And, if you do a status on the preview models...

from
MobileBurn:
"Specifications and features are nearly identical to the Sony Ericsson W800. The only major difference is the
lack of auto-focus on the 2MP camera. The device feels solid in the hand, and the keypad is superb. A notable mention is the fact that the Sony Ericsson W700 will be bundled with a 256MB Memory Stick PRO Duo, rather than the W800's 512MB.
These changes in specs should allow the W700 to sell for
US$50 to US$100 less than the W800 did when it was first released."
so basically when the w700 comes out, it'll be the same as the current price of the w800 (in the "black market", anyway).

What's all this talk about the w800 being expensive?! The networks are practically throwing them at us on 12 month contracts!

@grex
yes but too bad no one is throwing naothing at us in my country...
i'd really like a W800 but as i can't afford it maybe the W700 could be more affordable, though if the price is the same as W800 now, as it is mentioned in above posts, i'll still remain empty handed

i think its just a phone for ppl that cant really afford a w800 but wants a more complete mp3 player phone. so i think its a good move by sony ericsson and of course im sure they did enough marketing research first before that roll out this model.

SE page says it supports Flash Lite, so it's better than W800 in the themes parameter lol
