Gizmodo has posted news that the new Sony Walkman phone, the w950, has been sighted.

To me it looks like a good improvment on their current Walkman phone that was set out to compete with the Rokr from Motorola.

From Gizmodo:
We’ve been watching the W950 for a while now and it appears that it’s going to be finally available. 4GB of storage space let’s it out-Nano the Nano and the styling is a massive improvement over the sherbet accident that was the original Walkman phone. The W950 also has push email, improved graphics, and is running Symbian v9.1 and UIQ 3.0, meaning this is more of a smart phone than your average candybar.

If you are looking at a new phone and iPod Nano, I would wait a bit till this little guy comes out. Looks like a great alternative to the new Rokr coming out as well!
