Sony Ericsson W550i Walkman Camera Phone

You know that when Sony Ericsson decided to license the 'Walkman' name from Sony Corporation for a brand new and undisclosed mobile, something good was about to surface. That something was subsequently unveiled in the form of the W800i, Sony Ericsson's first camera phone that was purposefully designed as a lifestyle gadget with telecommunication capability. The W800i was put together in light of the popularization of MP3 players and a booming industry of online music stores. As more and more consumers take to the streets with hundreds, if not thousands of digital tracks in audio gadgets of different shapes and sizes, it became apparent that the lifestyle of modern day city dwellers is veering fast towards that of digital entertainment, even when they are on the go. Knowing the inconvenience brought about by an increase in gadget count for these users, the arrival of the W800i was very timely to say the least. Although it was not the first camera phone to boast of MP3 playback functionality, it was however the first camera phone to leverage on the Sony 'Walkman' branding and along with it, the first 'Walkman' camera phone featuring a dedicated MP3 media interface, controls and impressive audio quality; for a phone.


Two months on and the latest Sony Ericsson handset to be given a 'Walkman' makeover is the new W550i. There are many similarities between the two models, chief among which is the user-friendly MP3 playback interface, the signature orange theme, and a couple of carefully placed 'Walkman' logos to give it its distinct digital audio playback persona. As for form factor however, the W550i comes in a different twist, literally. Based on the now defunct S600i that drew its own principle design from Sony Ericsson's first swiveling handset, the S700i, there are two modes of operation available to the W550i. Before we delve further into the handset though, let us brief you on the technicalities of the new W550i 'Walkman' camera

HP iPAQ hw6900 Review

If you are searching for a way to stay in touch while on the road, there are not too many options better than the HP iPAQ hw6900. Even though its predecessor, the 6500 series, had some drawbacks, it appears that the new models are better than ever before. They are geared towards business oriented people that need to stay in touch even when they are not fully available from their office. The HP iPAQ hw6900 takes care of these communication issues in more ways than one.

Just like the 6500 series before it, we first noticed that they HP iPAQ hw6900 is a bit on the big side. This is not to say that it is too bulky to carry around, but it does have a bit of awkwardness to it at times. The dimensions of this unit are 4.65 x 2.8 x .71 inches. In addition, it weighs in at approximately 6.3 ounces.

A great feature that plays into the hands of businessmen is the battery life. The 1200 mAHh Lithium Ion has a life of four hours worth of talk time, or seven days of standby. During our review, the battery lasted just around three days; this was with moderate use from all of the features. In most cases this should be plenty long enough for any businessman before they have to charge it for the first time.

As far as communication is concerned the HP iPAQ hw6900 is tops. In addition to its standard cell phone features, it also allows communication in many other ways as well. One of the most notable is the 802.11b Wi-Fi radio. This is a feature that is not included in many units, and really puts the HP iPAQ hw6900 head and shoulders above the competition in this area.

You can also get Bluetooth 1.2 on your HP iPAQ hw6900 which makes transferring files a breeze. And when a Wi-Fi hotspot is not around you also have the ability to use the phone as a modem pc. We found this versatility to be handy in more than one occasion.

Another big improvement over past years is the usability of the keyboard. In the past there have been concerns with the round keys that made them difficult to push; this was especially true for those of us with larger fingers. But after hours of testing, HP decided to go with flat keys on the newest model. This will make it much easier to communicate quickly while typing short messages.

The camera on the HP iPAQ hw6900 is nothing special, but with 1.3 megapixels it gets the job done. To go along with the camera there are also audio and video features that you can surely find a use for. The main issue with the camera was the two second delay after pressing the button to take a photo. In many cases this was just enough time for our subject to move and distort the picture.

And finally, the GPS feature on the HP iPAQ hw6900 can be very helpful. With GPS, we never found ourselves lost while navigating a new city. The only downfall of this feature is that it eats up battery life at a quick pace. While using GPS you can expect about three hours.
Overall, when it comes to the HP iPAQ hw6900 you are getting a versatile package that will allow you to communicate with the world no matter where you are.

A (Sheet) Music Reader

FreeHand Music ofers a 12.1" backlit LCD dedicated sheet music reader called the MusicPad Pro that retails for $1,199. Weighing about 4 lbs and with a resolution of 1024 x 768, the MusicPad Pro also has a jack that connects a foot pedal for turning the pages. They also have an online store that offers almost 90,000 digital music scores. It looks a lot like a large sized Sony or iLaid reader (but without the e-ink screen.)
