Sony Ericsson w810i Impressions!
Finally, my new cellular device in the form of the Sony Ericsson w810i Walkman phone arrived. While my old Nokia flip phone was a good basic phone, I found myself needing a smaller mp3 player and an average camera. Lucky for me, Cincinnati Bell was having a nice promotion on the w810i, so I jumped on it. The phone has a very slick Walkman mp3 app built right in and also has a superb 2.0 megapixel camera. I was also surprised by how small the device was (in a good way).
The phone is very easy to navigate and can do all the cool things that you want it to, especially when customizing the contact list. I can add pictures, ringtones, birthdays, and calling voice commands to each contact. One really cool feature is the themes. There are four to pick from and each changes the graphical interface of the UI. Very cool for personalization. You can boot into either phone or walkman mode (meaning you can use it on long plane rides) and the two can be used easily at the same time. A song will pause when someone calls and start up again when you stop talking. And did I mention it has an SOS function?

I also have included below a YouTube video of the Hi-mobile take on the w810i, check it out if you want to see all the phone can do.
