Java™ 2 Micro Edition

Download extra content with Java, for example, new information- and entertainment-based applications. This gives users a chance to personalize the functions and

features in their phones, and developers the opportunity to create new applicatons.

Gaming

Gaming is already a very popular feature in mobile phones, and with Java, users can add new games

and skill levels to further enhance the entertainment value of Sony Ericsson phones.

3D Games

Java 3D gaming software introduces and supports cutting- edge 3D graphics. Audio developments such as 40 tones

polyphonic sound and force feedback provide a much richer experience. With operator support, there is the possibility for multi player games to play against friends. The large 1.8” TFT screen adds to a lasting gaming experience. Downloading graphic intensive games requiring up to 32 MB user memory is also possible with matching built-in memory of up to 32 MB.

Bluetooth™ wireless technology

Using built-in Bluetooth wireless technology, communication with

other Bluetooth devices is supported via a radio link. Unlike

infrared, Bluetooth wireless technology is not dependent on line-of-sight communication.

A device can be connected to the phone using Bluetooth wireless technology up to 10 metres away. For example, the phone can be answered at a distance with a Bluetooth headset, when it rings. The phone could be in a briefcase, a coat pocket or even in another room. Two mobile phones, or a phone and a computer, with Bluetooth wireless technology can exchange data such as images, video clips, business e-cards, music files and calendar data.

Copyright protection – DRM

DRM (Digital Rights Management) features the rights and copy protection of downloaded content (audio, pictures, ringtones, video, entertainment features such as games etc.).

Content-based services have great market potential, and to encourage this, Sony Ericsson plans to support DRM in all future multimedia products. Sony Ericsson regards DRM as a key enabler for content-based services, and is active in supporting the ongoing standardization work of the OMA (Open Mobile Alliance). Furthermore, any additional market requirements for DRM will be monitored.

Navigation key

The 4-directional + select key is designed to easily navigate the menu system. In a menu, it can be

It can also be used as a joystick with games.

Improved User Interface (UI)

Selection keys and the key assignment give a very efficient interaction design with full flexibility to handle all the new features and applications. Sony Ericsson has focused on user-centred design and extensive usability testing to solidify the new UI paradigm. This ensures visibility in actions and system status and consistency between applications and similar actions. The large, high- resolution colour screen is easily managed with the navigational key.
