The Sony Ericsson K660i, a phone that is planned to be announced this Tuesday, has appeared at Sony Ericsson’s official website. If you go to the UK site and press the product portfolio, you’ll see it. The website is here, if you’re interested.

K660 is a web-focused phone with 3G, EDGE & HSDPA and a special web browser (still NetFront, but with a mouse pointer). It also has a set of web keys on the keypad, just like the K850 has camera keys. Now what’s the purpose of these, you might be thinking. Well, the web browser is in landscape mode, so it should make a difference in browsing. But the keypad is still designed for portrait mode usage, so it’ll be a bit weird, I’d assume. Another thing making it a web-focused phone is the RSS widget on standby screen - nice! Since it’s a web-focused phone, it’s a bit weird that it doesn’t have a large display - at least it doesn’t seem like it’s very large.

According to the Sony Ericsson website the phones has maps and navigation services (GPS?), definitely something that sounds exciting.

It’s got a 2 megapixel camera without auto focus and flash. It does have PhotoFix, though. You can transfer the pictures by PictBridge, Bluetooth or post them to your blog.

The official Sony Ericsson Themes Creator tool for creating your own themes for your Sony Ericsson phone has so far only been released for Mac & Windows, but now people with Linux can also get and use the program if Gstreamer 0.8 is installed. I’m guessing most of you guys know what the software is for, so I’m not going to go into any details (leave a comment, if you don’t know what it’s for, and I’ll get back to you!). You can download it here, available in both English and Chinese. You can also find the Windows & Mac version at the Application-page here at the blog.

Eldar Murtazin from Mobile-Review has written an article about the changes in the new A200 operating platform in Sony Ericsson phones such as K850 and W910. Here he compares the old A100 with the new one, and shows lots of examples of the new stuff. It’s only available in Russian, so I used Google Translate to translate it. You can find it here! Hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I did!

Update! It’s now available in English, too! Check it out here
