In an effort to promote its first dedicated digital music phone, Sony Ericsson is compiling a list of the greatest music hits of all time. Music lovers from all over the world are invited to log onto Walkmanphones100.com to register their top three tracks of all time and the reasons why these songs make up the soundtrack to their life.
Immediately, fans will then see where their songs are placed in the overall poll, and whether or not their favourites have yet reached the top 100. The site, powered by Lycos, went live in the middle of August and will stay online until the middle of September.
Having registered their three songs, voters will also have the chance to win the ultimate collectable item for any serious music lover; one of the new Walkman phones complete with the world’s 100 favourite songs, as voted for by music fans worldwide on the website. Furthermore, Sony Ericsson will be giving lucky runners-up a member of its new family of Walkman phones, which includes the debut Walkman phone – the W800.
The results of The Walkman Phones 100 global vote will be released worldwide on September 28th 2005. The Sony Ericsson Walkman phone W800 is shipped with a 512Mbyte Memory Stick PRO duo: capacity for around 125 tracks, or 10 to 12 full length CDs (MP3 files at 128 kilobits/second), which can be expanded up to 2Gbyte. The W800 comes with quality stereo headphones and gives 30 hours of battery life in non-phone music mode or 15 hours of battery life if the phone is also being used to receive calls.
Complete with a two megapixel, auto-focus camera with picture light and digital still camera interface, the Walkman phone weighs less than a 100g and can be connected to a stereo Hi-Fi or car stereo speakers so music can be shared with friends.
