Sony Ericsson today announces the Z610i 3G phone, blending performance with a sleek mirror finish on the front cover to give a jewel-like quality complimented by a hidden 'magic mirror' display which can only be seen when in use.

The Picture Blog application allows the user to share photographs with friends and family, via an online 'blogsite' within just a few clicks. Consumers can take a shot with the Z610i's 2.0-megapixel camera and upload (or blog) the images directly to the site.

The Z610i's 3G capability, coupled with its large 2.0-inch screen, makes video calling and accessing the Internet a pleasure; and with support for Push Email and RSS feeds that deliver the latest news updates direct to the phone.

And support for Memory Stick Micro (M2) allows for generous storage of photos, video clips and MP3 files. This popular and portable storage format is available in memory sizes up to 1 GB - that equates to around 2,800 pictures of 2.0-megapixel quality.

But the magic of the Z610i is revealed when a call comes in or the user receives an SMS or MMS. The hidden external display illuminates, giving the effect that the caller-ID information is floating on the face of the phone itself. Wrapped in three eye-catching colors, the Z610i is available in selected markets in Luster Black, Rose Pink and Airy Blue from Q3 2006.

Wow... you really can't see the screen when it's off. Pretty cool, though I'm not so keen on the design.
