The 2007 Sony Ericsson Content Awards

Sony Ericsson recently held their first ever content awards ceremony, designed to big up the superb software you can get on your phone and to show the world how far we’ve come since the first mobile phone, the Motorola DynaTAC, lumbered into view.

As it said on Virginia Slims advertising in the 60’s (or Fatboy Slim’s album cover, if that’s more up your street), “You’ve come a long way, baby!”

The point is that phones nowadays just do so much stuff, if a traveller from the 80’s saw one, his brain would explode. And to celebrate, Sony Ericsson have dished out recognition to what they consider to be the cream of the crop, the best tools, games and software that makes your life with your mobile more fun and more productive.

And the winners really are pretty damn cool:

Gaming: Playman Extreme Running
(proper “free running” game on your mobile, perfectly capturing the feeling of being a nutcase Frenchman, running up the side of a building…)

Imaging: Pull Face Image Manipulator
(BWAHAHAHAHAHA, morph your friends’ faces into weeeeeeeeird shapes!)

Productive Mobility: Opera Mini 4.0
(utterly, utterly fabulous mobile internet browser)

Music & Audio: TrackID
(music recognition software. Absolutely imperative you own this!)

Themes & Graphics: The Geeks themes and graphics
(themes just for me!!!)

Of course, with this being Sony Ericsson, it wasn’t just a pointless list either, because all the winners, S.E. have stated, will now come preloaded onto selected phones. Annnnnnnnd if you already have a Sony Ericsson phone that doesn’t have these on, you can download them, using the PlayNow option on your phone.

So, you too can tit about with all the cool stuff Sony Ericsson gets to play with!
