The new MTV edition of Sony Ericsson W760 will be available in Italy in a few weeks’ time, and then all over Europe. The MTV edition is the result of a partnership between Sony Ericsson and MTV Europe and will be more expensive than the usual Sony Ericsson W760, which costs around 260 Euros.

The cost of the new device will be around 300 Euros, but you get some benefits for the extra money. The Sony Ericsson W760 MTV Edition has a more colored case and it will allow users to stream MTV music, videos and other mobile content.

The rest of the Sony Ericsson W760 MTV Edition doesn’t seem to have changed at all; it has the same 3.2 megapixel camera and a lot of entertainment features, aimed at the young generation. You’ll get a Walkman 3.0 player, an FM radio and a 2.2” display with 320 x 240 pixel resolution. Sony Ericsson W760 MTV Edition also includes a GPS receiver and you can use it to browse the web and download files at HSDPA speeds.

Here we see the Symbian UIQ powered little number, sporting a different color from that which it had when it first appeared two weeks ago. The multitude of buttons are seen in full now and up close, and I have to say it’s quite well arranged for something that’s nearly cluttered.

The Sony Ericsson BeiBei will be a touchscreen Walkman phone touting Symbian 9.3 OS with support for demand paging. I highly suspect if the white version pictured here, if it ever does go into production like the black one, will have different/ modified specs. Now can Sony Ericsson please just release this smart phone now?

• Sony Ericsson BeiBei pics in the wild, again
• Sony Ericsson W902 gets nicknamed Patty, to be announced with W595 on July 22nd
• Sony Ericsson Mix Walkman launched by Vodafone UK

Beibei sports the new Symbian 9.3 OS with the UIQ 3.3 interface, which would mean that the device will be able to respond faster thanks to Demand Paging support; the choice of OS isn’t exactly unexpected now that Sony Ericsson co-owns Symbian UIQ and we can expect to see more devices make an appearance in the future running on it.

Billed as a Walkman phone, this candybar sports a pretty smallish screen for a touchscreen phone but the gaudy UIQ 3.3 user interface might as well make up for that. One more intriguing factor that we notice is the abundance of buttons, which is usually not the case with most other touchscreen phones.

Let’s hope SE will have mercy on us and release some official info on this but meanwhile take a look at some more pictures of the oddly named beibei.

We already told you about Sony Ericsson W890 Walkman trial model which was sold on Polish auction site a few weeks ago. Well, now we have another one auctioned off on the same site:

Except for better pictures, there’s nothing more to add then we already knew about SE W890 Walkman from previous sale and spec sheet last week.

Just to remind you, Sony Ericsson W890 is a 12 mm thin 3G HSDPA music phone with 3.2 megapixel camera.

While the dummy phone models turning up on E-Bay is nothing to write home about (we’ve had that with Nokia E65 last winter and with Nokia 8900 just last week), a working, unannounced Sony Ericsson Walkman prototype on a Polish auction site – is something new.

The phone, which looks like a successor of SE W880i and would probably become Sony Ericsson W890i Walkman, has been put on an auction this Saturday.

The listed specs for SE W890i include:

• GPRS, UMTS and Bluetooth connectivity
• 3.2 megapixel main camera
• front camera for video calls
• FM Radio
• menu layout like on SE k850i
• thickness – 12 mm
• 1 GB Memory Stick Micro M2 included

The live pictures for Sony Ericsson W890i look real enough and it does not look like a hoax.

Currently the highest bid for W890i Walkman is 530 Zloty (~140 EUR), which looks kinda low for a working next gen Walkman phone. But the auction is set to run for 5 more days, so the price is likely to go up.

According to Sony Ericsson “the latest developments within photo and music” will be presented. Let’s speculate a bit what these developments may actually mean.

The latest development in photo is, most likely, the long overdue 5 megapixel Sony Ericsson K850i Cybershot phone. The SE K850i was spotted in the wild this March.

The latest developments in music for Sony Ericsson can not be without the new Walkman phone models. And right now we have an information about a couple of new Walkman sliders that should be ready for sale this month.

The first one is Sony Ericsson W999i Walkman Slider that has surfaced on the net this April and was spotted on official 3GSM Association site last week.

Another one is the rumored Shinobu Walkman slider, that was found on the shelves of a Polish cellphone retailer last month.

And of course there’s a long awaited Sony Ericsson M610 (Lizy) 3G phone, that has been approved by FCC already.

Well, I’m not sure that all of them will be announced on June 14, but all of these phones are long overdue and seem to be ready to go on sale pretty soon.

• Sony Ericsson Rika in red, new leaked images confirm the Walkman phone
• Sony Ericsson W910i Walkman Slider approved by FCC. No 3G for U.S., only EDGE and Bluetooth
• Sony Ericsson W595 leaked and spec’d
• Sony Ericsson W305 Yao for an early 2009 launch?

And now it looks that more Sony Ericsson phones are coming – the pictures of new Sony Ericsson Walkman Slider phone started surfacing in Eastern Europe.

First – JUSTAMP published a number of live pics taken in the shop of Polish cellphone retailer Art Kom GSM Group:

Then Hungarian site Terminal.hu came up with more detailed specs and expected price ($550) for this SE Walkman Slider:

2 mpx camera
2.4″, 320×240 px 262K QVGA display
UMTS/HSDPA connectivity
12.5 mm thick

Given that the live phone already surfaced at retailer shop, I think it should be safe to expect the official launch pretty soon.

And there was one other SE phone missing from the last announcement – 5 megapixel Sony Ericsson K850i Cybershot that we have been waiting for a few months now.

Time for a few more official SE press releases?

Update: Shinobu has been officially released as Sony Ericsson W910i Walkman Phone.

• Sony Ericsson S500 Nature Styled Slider

Now we have received a tip with the link to a Swedish site with a better view of this new Walkman phone:

The phone, if real, looks very similar to the recently announced SE W580i, with the new improved semi QWERTY keyboard design that we saw yesterday on Sony Ericsson W700i Smartphone.

The rumored specs for SE W999i are: 12.5 mm thick, HSDPA connectivity, 2.4″ 262K color QVGA screen, 2 mpx camera with autofocus.

Thanks, Eric
