Sony Ericsson
announces the P910 smartphone
- Widest choice of input methods, added memory and ideal e-mail platform
make the new P910 a must for mobile business professionals -
The P910 makes handling e-mails
and web browsing easy with a wide choice of input methods. For example, the new
thumb keyboard on the inside of the flip is particularly useful for writing
longer e-mails and the five-way Jog Dial is ideal for navigating the phone’s
functions or browsing the web. Additionally handwriting recognition using the
stylus on the large color touch screen and virtual keyboard are valuable tools
for SMS messages, taking notes, or adding a new contact or meeting.
Gaining access to e-mail services
and handling messages is hassle-free, enabling users to make the most of the
extensive e-mail services the P910 supports. The P910 can just as easily be part
of a secure corporate IT network, or used by individuals to receive their
private e-mail. Sony Ericsson is collaborating with a wide range of e-mail
providers, which makes the P910 the perfect e-mail platform. In addition to
Smartner Duality Always-on Mail®, it also supports IBM, Extended Systems One
Bridge Mobile™, Visto Mobile™, SEVEN® and Intellisync Mobile Suite™.
Given the increased capabilities
of the P910 such as web browsing, e-mailing, PDA and a range of entertainment
options, Sony Ericsson has expanded the internal memory from 16MB to 64MB and
included a 32MB Memory Stick Duo.. The P910 supports up to 1GB Memory Stick Duo
Pro, creating almost endless possibilities to store and share images, video,
music and business data.
The P910 is based on Symbian OS
v7.0, the world’s most popular operating system for smartphones, and the
successful UIQ user interface which is based on Symbian OS. As a result, the
P910 offers the widest possible selection of applications on any smartphone
available today.
New free or trial applications
bundled with the P910 include AvantGo® (offline browsing), Media Viewer (direct
access to news such as the Financial Times) and Promyzer (real-time market
quotes and stock trading). HP Mobile Printing Application allows messages,
pictures, calendars and contacts to be printed directly to a Bluetooth-enabled
HP printer. Wayfinder Mobile Navigator™ is a navigation tool included on the
Software Suite that ships with the phone, which works as a turn-by-turn in-car
navigation system when connected to a Bluetooth GPS receiver. The P910 also
comes with the Opera browser, offering a superior Internet experience that
reformats and perfectly presents the full Internet within the P910’s screen
width.
Developing new applications for
smartphones is the fastest growing area in the developer community and the P900
is the number one product for adding new applications. There are currently over
600 applications that are compatible with the P800/P900/P910, a figure which
makes these devices a proven platform for a large community of application
developers. Users can even buy and download applications directly over the air
to the phone using an on-device application shop.
“Our smartphones combine PDA and
telephony functions without compromising quality, functionality or ease of use.
Add to that the widest variety of applications and input methods, and you have a
tool that satisfies the most demanding mobile professional,” says Jan Wäreby,
Corporate Executive Vice President and Head of Sales & Marketing of Sony
Ericsson.
The capabilities of the P910 are
endless. It includes a digital video and still camera and a range of
entertainment options. PC synchronization of the calendar and address book can
be managed over USB, infrared, Bluetooth or even remotely over the air through
SyncML. The color screen now boasts 262,000 colors and is well suited for
picture viewing and editing.
The P910 will start shipping
globally in Q3 and exists with five different keyboard variants to meet the
needs of different language groups: QWERTY, QWERTZ, AZERTY, Russian and Greek.
The P910 will be available in the
following editions:
