The first sonyericsson walkman with android has actually been on the market for over a year already

"a new name does not make a new product"

What do you do if your smaller version of the x10 (bigger x10mini) doesn’t sell as well as you would have expected? Well of course you change color and name and put in in the walkman series. You know what this means, A. sonyericsson is desperate cause nobody wants an x8, B. this is the first Walkman phone with android. Specs remain the same as the xperia x8 but the name is now W8.

3-inch, 320 x 480 touchscreen, a 600MHz processor, 168MB of RAM and Android 2.1.

“Walkman W8”
