Sony Ericsson Japan: W61s and W62s
Yes, rest of the world probably the step child of Sony Ericsson Japan product. Not that they don’t care, but the drooling product always be unveiled in Japan only. Until now, there are only 2 kinds that being launched from Japan’s to non Japan market. They are S700 and W900, and run on GSM network technology.
Back to the lucky Japanese people, Sony Ericsson launched their new CDMA based W61s and W62s. Both are running on CDMA 2000-1X technology under KDDI au operator. W61s is Cyber-shot sliding phone with 5.1 megapixels camera. It has Exmor CMOS sensor up to ISO1600 with Auto Focus support, LED flash, and lens cover. The wide screen 2.8 inch WVGA display is available with 480×864 (262k color) resolution. The phone is equipped with microSD slot.
W62s in the other hand is positioned as Global Design phone. The clamshell designed phone is so slim. The feature is much and less like the W61s, minus the Cyber-shot feature.

Unfortunately it is only available for those who live in Japan only, unless you can come there and jailbreak it.
