Sony Ericsson M600 Mobile Messaging Phone
Sony Ericsson have announced the new M600 mobile phone and messaging device. The new M600 doesn't have all the glorious multimedia features of some of its rivals; indeed, it doesn't even come with a camera (though it does, rather oddly, support 3D Java games).  Instead, the M600 is pitched firmly at the Crackberry crowd (i.e. business execs), focusing on messaging using every type of messaging technology Sony Ericsson's engineers could think of.
 
That said, most of the M600's features are shared by the new Sony Ericsson P990. So you could think of the M600 as simply a cut down P990, but without the gizmos.

It also supports nine different Push email applications, including:
