W700? If this was supposed to be a April Fool's Day joke it's four days too late. I might be wrong and SE might just be releasing a new slider that has been talked about in the rumours forum.

New W700 WALKMAN® Phone launched in Titanium Gold colour
04 April 2006
The latest addition to Sony Ericsson’s Walkman® phone family, the W700, will appeal to lovers of classic and discreet design. Available in subtle Titanium Gold the W700 is the 8th Walkman® phone from Sony Ericsson, and it broadens the appeal of the category to new groups of music listeners. Great listening and easy to operate, it combines a top quality music player with a 2 Megapixel camera plus lots of features for fun and work. The Walkman® music player even works with the phone turned-off – great for use on flights.
“The W700 builds on the legacy of the first Walkman® phone, the W800. This phone will appeal to anyone who wants a quality music player in their phone for occasional listening,” said Jan Wäreby, Corporate Executive Vice President, Head of Sale and Marketing, Sony Ericsson.
There’s also greater potential to expand the storage capacity. As with all Walkman® phones a Memory Stick PRO Duo is included in the box. The W700 comes with 256MB - enough to hold 6 CDs for occasional music listening. But with up to 2GB versions on the market, enough to hold 47 CDs, there is enough music storage available to entertain on even the longest of journeys.
W700 comes supplied with high quality headset that plugs into a standard connector, so you can connect a favourite headset of your own if you wish. There are also a full range of plug-in music accessories from small portable speakers to car systems available.
Music management couldn’t be simpler. All the software and cables you need to rip CDs to your PC and transfer them to the phone is included the box.
The W700 will ship globally during Q2 2006 and be available in Titanium Gold. A Smooth White colour variant will be available in some markets.

I think this is a late April Fool's Day joke.
The phone is exactly the same as W800, only with a different color and bundled with an MPSD with smaller capacity. Are these enough to justify giving this one a separately new product name from W800? I don't think so.

Looks OK, a surprising announcement.

I read on mobile-review that the W700 doesn't have autofocus though... so that's two things in favor of the W800, AF and the size of the bundled memorystick.
I do think they could at least have made a few changes to the outer shell though, other than colour.
