Reports affirm that the Sony Ericsson codenamed Alicia, now uncovered as the W707, might be cancelled. Others say it is still under discussion. Sony Ericsson is beggining to cancel many phones, the closest ones to date are the P5i (Paris) and G702 (BeiBei).

The Sony Ericsson W707 is a Walkman phone with a clamshell form factor, and the picture on the left, and after the jump are from a early prototype mode.

A new Sony Ericsson Walkman has surfaced. There is no information on any of the specifications or even the name itself. What we do know is the codename, which is Alicia.

What I can sort of confirm is that it will be a high-end device, and it should release on September this year, and this is according to our Sony Ericsson roadmap for release dates.

As you can see, Alicia is a clamshell Walkman that looks like the the Sony Ericsson W980 on the numeric keypad part.

There is a hidden external display and what seems to be a navi-wheel, and according to a poster at esato forums, it will display the weather or animations. The phone will also change themes according to the time of the day.

We can’t notice any high specification camera on the phone from the leaked pictures, but by being a high-end device we expect it to have HSDPA, Bluetooth, GPS, and perhaps WLAN. We might be wrong, but what would you expect from such a classification, and at this stage in time?

More pictures and the video after the jump.
