Sony Ericsson W950i
Price -- Rs 28,000 approx
The W950i minus a camera is Sony Ericsson's flagship Walkman phone, and is one of the most unusual phones to be released in 2006. Designed as a music player and business phone, the W950i meets the needs of its target market perfectly. Boasting of Quad-band GSM connectivity, a large touch screen size, the W950i has 4 GB of internal memory goodness and is powered by the newest Symbian OS.
Push email is supported, together with a viewer for common Office attachments. 3G (Which still hasn't debuted here) provides fast download speeds, and full web browsing is available with the Opera 8.0 web browser. The built in handwriting software is up to task and is a boon for those who prefer to scribble away their mails. An important point to note is the lack of Wi-Fi and camera but then again the target group is clearly defined -- The workaholic CEO, who occasionally like to shake a leg all alone.
