Spy pictures have been doing the rounds for a little while, but Sony Ericsson has now officially launched the W52S in Japan.
Esato News
Available from June on KDDI's AU network, the biggest selling point of the W52S will, of course, be that 2GB chunk of flash memory, which is enough for close to 1,000 medium-quality tracks. Sony-brand in-ear headphones are included, as is the usual range of audio-enhancement technology. For the ¥25,000 (£105) likely selling price, there's also enough other gadgetry to make it easy to overlook the dowdy appearance of the new slider phone. Principal among these is the inclusion of an FM transmitter that allows the W52S to pipe tunes to a nearby FM radio, which is an oft-overlooked convenience.Advertisement Otherwise, the 130g phone sports a 2.7-inch Bravia LCD screen, a 2.1-megapixel camera, the usual IC-based e-cash and transportation-pass functions and both Memory Stick Micro and microSD card slots. Music playback time is rated at a very respectable 110 hours.

Hi!
Yes, the Sony Ericsson W52S looks interesting!
There is a W53S as well!
Not sure what the price tag actually means. ¥25,000 (£105) because many high spec phones cost ¥1 with the contract.
Pre-pay is not common anymore in Japan and may even have been phased out now. Not 100% sure of that though....
I will try to get some photo's in July when I am in Japan !
