Sony Ericsson + Handango for Mobile Content

Sony Ericsson + Handango for Mobile Content. Sony Ericsson and Handango announced a worldwide partnership to bring content direct to consumers on all Sony Ericsson convergence phones, including the Sony Ericsson XPERIA(TM) X1, its first product using the Windows Mobile multimedia OS, and Sony Ericsson's UIQ handsets.

High-end phone sales are growing exponentially, and more consumers are turning to their handsets for both every-day personal and business efficiency as well as multimedia and entertainment. Handango offers the widest array of mobile applications across all genres including mobile productivity, games, imaging, music and more. From students to moms to the business road warrior, Handango has applications that fit every lifestyle.

Handango's InHand clients will offer Sony Ericsson customers a vast and easy-to-navigate array of best-in-class smartphone applications. All applications have been designed for optimal performance on Sony Ericsson's XPERIA(TM) and UIQ devices. Handango will be the content provider for Sony Ericsson's mobile Web store for UIQ phones. Later in the year, Handango will offer its InHand mobile client on all UIQ devices. For UIQ devices already on the market, customers will be able to access content from Handango's mobile store via their handset's browser, effective July 25, 2008 (http://mobile.handango.com/se-ota).
