04 Aug 08 Sony Ericsson and Zeemote Partner Up for Wireless Gaming
Our guests today are Sony Ericsson and Zeemote. You know of course what Sony Ericsson does for a living, but you might not recognize Zeemote. Zeemote is a manufacturer of wireless controllers for mobile devices. Therefore the two companies signed a partnership to bring near-console game play to Sony Ericsson’s W760i. Sony Ericsson is going to launch Zeemote JS1 controller with Bluetooth technology in an exclusive promotion in Netherlands.
With Apple’s iPhone redefining wireless gaming, it’s no surprise Sony Ericsson wants to stay in the gaming game. From August 8th to October 31st, if you happen to be in the Netherlands you will get the Zeemote JS1 controller for free with any purchase of the W760i Walkman via a mail-in voucher promotion. The W760i comes bundled with two Zeemote Ready games with fourteen waiting to be downloaded.
The Zeemote JS1 controller will have a thumbstick and four buttons which are customizable. After connecting via Bluetooth, the JS1 will certainly improve gaming experience. I’d certainly want a piece of that action. It could be really fun.
