Sony Ericsson T658c Gets FCC Nod

The Sony Ericsson T658c mobile phone just got the approval from the Federal Communications Commission. Intended for the China market (hence the 'c' in the name), the T658c features a 3.2 megapixel camera for some neat photos on your phone, as well as themes, illumination and materials inspired by nature. It is a GSM 900/1800/1900MHz tri-band phone and supports Java J2ME for apps and games. As with most other phones, it supports a flight mode where all communication related features are turned off but you can still use the T658c as a camera or music player.

The Sony Ericsson T658c offers USB connectivity for data sync and copying over your music. It supports PlayNow, and some of the common SE applications like VideoDJ, PhotoDJ and MusicDJ are available on the phone. The phone takes in Memory Stick Micro (the M2). Obviously, the phone supports Chinese input as well. The included music player supports MP3, MP4, M4A, 3GP, AAC, AAC+, AMR, MIDI, WAV and other formats, as well as streaming music and video.

There's also a full-fledged email client that supports POP3/IMAP4 email. The camera lets you record videos. If your service provider supports it, you can also get information on traffic and other useful info depending on your area/cell info.
