Sony Ericsson has announced a new mobile phone with a very interesting, exotic look. It’s created for the Japanese markety only. Unlike the conventional phone which opens like a clam, the W44S opens horizontally like a little notebook AND vertically as well. And on one side of the flip, it has a screen large enough to play movies and videos in. The specs for the phone is pretty impressive too:

* one-seg digital TV broadcast reception
* digital radio reception
* CDMA EVDO
* felica electronic money
* 3″ (240×432 16:9) wide screen with Bravia RealityMAXtechnology
* 3.2MP CMOS camera with AutoFocus
* dual 16mm diameter stereo speakers for 128voices polyphonic ringtone
* MS Pro Duo slot built in 115Mb flash

Reviews have said that this phone could very well rival the Nokia N series but Nooooo…Sony Ericsson has to make it just for Japan, which means it’s AU KDDI only. So while the rest of the world has to content themselves with less technologically impressive Sony Ericsson phone, Japan will have this, the W44S. And they’re not THAT impress because they’re sorta used to swweeettt phones like these.
