sony ericsson with gps???

Sony Ericsson Kxxx with GPS in the wild

Obviously Sony Ericsson arein for a major announcement with a spanking new K-series Cyber-shothandset that is obviously loaded with goodies. The Chinese-basedwebsite pconline.com.cn has revealed details and live photos of thedevice.
Since there are a lot of comments going around if this phone is aChinese fake, we can assure you that it's the real deal, as we've seenan actual working prototype of the device - and it even had that samegross color on.
Styled in a conservative form factor and a rather controversiolcolor combo (read: we are not buying it), the new K-series handsetsports a 3 megapixel auto focus camera (it's not a 5 megapixel one,trust us) and a dual-LED flash. But that's not all that this handset isabout.


This new puppy will be among the first Sony Ericsson handsets to feature a built-in GPS receiver (remember Sony Ericsson W760,right?). The software part of the GPS navigation is ensured by theLocation Services menu we also saw in the Sony Ericsson W890, whichincludes applications such as Google Maps, Favorite places, etc. Thistime however the menu has an even expanded functionality in order tomake the most out of the integrated GPS receiver.







The new Sony Ericssonhandset will be positioned somewhere above Sony Ericsson K770 and SonyEricsson K850. If you ask us though it looks rather reminescent of someolder Sony Ericsson T-series handsets, so maybe a T-series designationwill be more like it.
We are yet to see the real announcement of the device somewhere inthe near future - perhaps in the beginning of February just as lastyear.
And since it's obviously SE leaks time, here's a video ad that showsanother unannounced Sony Ericsson phone - the Sony Ericsson Z660,thanks to justamp.blogspot.com
