Europe UK : As part of a global agreement with the 3 Group, mobile media company 3 UK today announces two new 3G handsets from Sony Ericsson, the K610i ( above ) and K800i ( below ).

Each handset features the distinctive 3 Instant Viewer, giving up-to-the minute access to the latest news, music, TV, games, videos and other media services.

In addition, the K800i ( above ) is the first Cyber-Shot phone with a powerful 3.2 megapixel main camera with Xenon flash, auto-focus and powerful imaging software. The K800i also has 'BestPic(tm)' technology allowing you to take 9 high resolution photos in a second and image stabilizer, opening up a world of photography to the user.
