No compromise on functionality? Review Ultra-slim phones are a gimmick, right? Yes, they're mere millimetres from front to back, but in shaving off around half the thickness of a standard candybar, the phone makers must have compromised on the skinny handset's feature set, surely? Sony Ericsson's Walkman-branded W880 is now readily available - we look at how well it measures up.â¦

(InfoWorld) - Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications plans to make an announcement Wednesday about its strategy for the UIQ interface that runs on the Symbian mobile phone operating system, Sony Ericsson President Miles Flint said Sunday at a news briefing on the eve of the 3GSM World Congress in Barcelona. Last week, Sony Ericsson completed the acquisition of UIQ Technology, the Swedish company that develops and manages the platform used by the handset maker for its smart phones. Since the acquisition, rumors have been floating as to whether Sony Ericsson will change the direction of the platform. The manufacturer has built the majority of UIQ-based smart phones on the market. UIQ will operate as an independent subsidiary and continue to be licensed on equal terms to all its licensees, Sony Ericsson said after the acquisition. UIQ, formerly known as User Interface Quartz, is a graphical user interface layer that provides additional components to the core Symbian OS, to enable the development of feature-rich mobile phones that are open to expanded capabilities through third-party applications. The 3GSM World Congress runs through Thursday.

(InfoWorld) - Eighteen months after rival AppleÂ  raised the bar in the music player market with itsÂ video iPod, Sony will launch its first digital video Walkman. The NW-A800 series Walkman will initially go on sale in Europe in April. They'll appear later in other markets but timing hasn't yet been decided, Sony in Tokyo said Friday. For Europe there are three models: the NW-A805, A806, and A808. The only major difference is in the amount of flash memory, which is 2GB, 4GB, and 8GB, respectively. The screen is a 2-inch LCD (liquid crystal display) panel with QVGA resolution (240 pixels by 320 pixels). It's orientated in portrait form rather than the landscape form used on the iPod, but videos can be viewed with the device either held vertically or horizontally, said Sony. Audio playback in a number of flavors of Sony's ATRAC compression is possible, and Sony supplies software for converting Windows Media Audio, MP3 and WAV files to ATRAC. It's also possible to directly load MP3 files onto the Walkman, but battery life will be shorter. For video the Walkman plays back MPEG4 H.264/AVC encoded files. Playback time on a fully-charged battery differs depending on the type of files. For audio its roughly 30 hours for ATRAC files encoded at 132KbpsÂ while for video its seven hours for MPEG4 files encoded at 768Kbps. Video files at lower bit rates will take up less space in the memory but also make the Walkman work a little harder on the decoding, so the time drops to about six hours and 30 minutes for a 384Kbps file, according to Sony's figures. The Walkman measures 44 millimeters wide by 88mm high and is 9mm thick. It weighs 53 grams. The NW-A805 is listed on Sony's online store for â¬180 ($237), the NW-A806 for â¬230 and the NW-A808 for â¬300. In comparison Apple's 30GB iPod costs â¬289 in Germany. The two products are difficult to compare on price alone, however, because the iPod has a larger screen and is also bulkier and heavier than the new Sony Walkman. Sony historians will note that the new product is not actually Sony's first Walkman to support video. That recognition goes to the GV-8 "Video Walkman" that was put on sale in August 1998 and played back Video 8 cassettes from camcorders. It cost Â¥118,200 (approximately $820 using the historical exchange rate). Â
