Sony Ericsson has unveiled a new version of their popular W910i walkman phone  - the SE W910i MOBO Edition. This announcement came a month before the 2008 MOBO Awards that will be held at the Wembley Arena in London. The specifications of the new phone, however, hasn’t been fully released to the public. But do know that the W910i MOBO should be on sale later this year, only across the UK and only via Carphone Warehouse.

As it is another version of the W910i walkman phone, then most probably the phone will come with pre-installed MOBO content. Also, primary staples of the original phone will probably be still there like its design, measurement and certain features. Features like a Walkman Player (version 3.0), TrackID, motion sensor, Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP, FM radio with RDS, quad-band GSM connectivity with GPRS and EDGE, HSDPA 2100 MHz connectivity, a 2.4 inch TFT display with 256K colors and a QVGA resolution, NetFront browser, email and IM, JAVA MIDP 2.0, a 2 MP camera with video recording, 40MB of internal memory and support for Memory Stick Micro cards would probably be in this new phone.

The handset price is still unknown but most probably, the the special phone will cost more than its original version (which is available across Europe for retail prices under 300 Euros).

The FCC bestowed its approval on the new Sony Ericsson W910i walkman phone that we saw a couple of months ago on the Whack. We should be seeing this soon in stores and elsewhere. The W910i is a HSDPA phone providing high-speed internet access, as well as 3D games.

The phone will be bundled with a 1GB Memory Stick Micro. It’s on target for a Q4 2007 release. Measuring just 99mm x 50mm x 12.5mm, it weighs in at 86 grams. Packaging includes a battery, charger, USB cable, stereo portable handsfree, and PC sync application.
