Sony Ericsson introduced three new handsets at Las Vegas' Consumer Electronics Show.

It also included a tri-band HSDPA Walkman phone.

Sony's new Walkman 760 features tri-band HSDPA, built-in GPS, a 3.2-megapixel camera and a 1 GB external memory stick.

Sony says it's new W-350, the company's first Walkman branded flip-phone, includes EDGE connectivity, music controls on the outside of the handset, a 1.3-megapixel camera, a 512 MB memory stick and 14 MB of internal memory.

The Japanese phone maker also announced the entry level Z-555, a standard mobile phone supporting gesture control.

This new feature allows the owner to ignore calls or silence the built-in alarm clock simply by waving their hand over the cell phone.

Sony Ericsson says the Z-555 is aimed to compete directly against some of Motorola's newer phones that Motorola announced earlier this week at CES.

The Z555 comes with a 1.3-megapixel camera and built-in 12 MB of memory.

All of Sony's three new handsets are expected to be available in the U.S. during around mid-May 2008.
