Sony Ericsson Vivaz has an excellent set of connectivity options - USB (they used a standard microUSB jack this time), Wi-Fi, GPS, quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE and 3G with HSDPA. The music fans will appreciate the 3.5mm audio jack, the FM radio and the built-in microSD card slot that allows expanding the 75MB of internal memory. There will be an 8GB microSD card slot included in the retail package so you can start capturing those magnificent 720p videos right away.
