This Sony/Ericsson W810i phone/camera/Walkman—with 1G Memory Stick Pro Duo—was available for $1 at my local thrift store. I must admit I am impressed. At the time this phone was issued, the phone’s camera was as capable as the dedicated Sony cameras. The W810i could be used as a digital Walkman, playing back your favourite tunes. Of course it could be used as a phone too! And yet it is so small and light…
Unfortunately the W810i had suffered too much damage and wear to its charging and battery contacts. The battery had problems like swelling too. I don’t have the charger. There are a lot of factors working against this unit ever taking pictures again!
The Memory Stick Pro worked if anything too well. None of the contents had be deleted, so on top of some fine tunes I got to see a families highlights, camping trips and the like. Have no fear, donators, I am not even sure where the phone is now.
