In a press release this morning, Sony Ericsson has announced the pending availability of its first handset on T-Mobile since the release of the T610 in early 2004.

The clamshell phone features a QVGA internal display, quadband GSM/EDGE access and single-band W-CDMA access with HSDPA support, Bluetooth 2.0 with stereo audio support, GPS support through T-Mobile’s branded TeleNav Navigator service, MemoryStick M2 expansion slot, RSS reader, WAP browser, speakerphone, and 2.0 megapixel camera with video recorder.

T-Mobile has also launched a product page to coincide with the announcement, and the phone is expected to launch sometime in early September.
