Sony Ericsson announces Z555, W760, W350

Yap, we knew this is coming. Today Sony Ericsson unveiled three new phones: Z555 – stylish mid-range clamshell, W350 and W760 Walkman phones. Every mentioned device sports stereo Bluetooth, FM radio, PlayNow support, and the Memory Stick Micro (M2) expansion slot. In addition, all three phones come with such pre-installed software as web browser, email and instant messaging client, RSS reader, picture blogging app, as well as other standard applications like calendar, alarm, stopwatch, calculator, notes and more. However, there are some differences to say the least…
