The Sony Ericsson W380i - The Sleekest Walkman Mobile Phone Ever

Walkman mobile phones are ace. We know this. It's just part of the technical description - 'play music, combine phone stuff with mp3 stuff, be fabulous'... But now, there's one that aims to be fashionable and sleek, too: the stunning Sony Ericsson W380i.

Walkman - music for the mobile phone generation

The Walkman names been around for well over 20 years, now (in fact, it's nearer 30 years, now!), and in all that time, it's been synonymous with music on the go, wherever you are.
