Sony Ericsson's W880 "Ai" launching next week?
Oh yes it is. That's the Sony Ericsson W880 "Ai" Walkman up there comin' atcha straight out of Sweden. We still don't know if the tri-band GSM / UMTS and QVGA specs are the real deal or not. But that's definitely a 2 megapixel camera on the back. Now, according to Swedish site NYA!mobil.se (via a bit of janky machine translation), the Walkman W880 will apparently join the living on Tuesday, 6 February -- in Sweden anyway, home country of the Ericsson half of that SE equation. At this point, that date seems fair enough. Besides, they've managed to get their hands on the device so they must know a little something, eh? More pics including a peep at the user interface after the break.

This phone looks cool and really small. Looks like navigation might be an issue. I just saw the new Celltop from Alltel, could be worth a look at http://www.mycelltop.com

I don't think it will be popular to say so but I think it looks ugly. With all of the stainless steel it looks as non-photogenic as the upcoming Haier/AOL media player.

Damn, that thing is pretty ugly. I have a w810i I use for international trips but that's already too small for me.

I like it...perhaps an upgrade for my 810i. Do you suppose a 850mhz version could be the W888e that's been leaked?

Is it really that hard to make quad-band phones?
Looks like they messed with the UI, but I won't complain until I get my hands on one (probably never, I don't see Cingular or T-Mobile picking this phone up).
