Sony Ericsson TM506 Available from T-Mobile

Tweet

Sony Ericsson’s TM506 handset has just become available from T-Mobile in the US which is newsworthy not least because the Sony Ericsson TM506 has the distinction (if one can call it that) of becoming the first HSDPA handset to be offered by T-Mobile in the US.

The Sony Ericsson TM506, which is billed as being capable of keeping you connected with ‘a great sense of style’ sports a somewhat lacklustre 2 megapixel camera billed as being capable of taking ‘high-quality’ pictures (though few would agree that 2 megapixels warrants the ‘high-quality’ tag these days – especially when you consider handsets such as LG’s 8 megapixel KC910), stereo Bluetooth connectivity, allowing for wireless connection to computers and wireless headphones, TeleNav and integrated music player.

• Built-in 2.0-megapixel camera takes high-quality pictures to enlarge or print
• Stereo Bluetooth technology connects the phone to a computer or stereo headset without any wires
• Send and receive instant messages with AOL, Yahoo!, Windows Live and Google Talk
• Memory Stick slot easily transfers files and data to another device
• Integrated GPS with Telenav Navigator gets turn-by-turn voice/on-screen directions including nearest hotels, restaurants and even the lowest gas prices

The 3G Sony Ericsson TM506 offers a purported talktime of up to 7 hours, a standby time of up to 14 days and is has just become available via T-Mobile for around the $80 price point.
