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
gently pressed to select a feature.
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.
