The phone has the very recent evolution of PlayNow arena which is Sony Ericsson’s popular over-the-air (OTA) and web download service being launched this May. The cool thing about this phone is that you have full access to the Walkman music player without having to open the phone itself; yes you can work it all from the front of the W980i.
