<p>Those that are more concerned about features may be interested to hear the Vivaz is equipped with a variety of options including GPRS, WLAN, Bluetooth, EDGE, and Wi-Fi.  Therefore, users can easily transfer data at fast speeds with a build in web browser to make surfing the internet a snap.</p>
<p>One drawback of the mobile gadget is that the internal memory is very small, but with the purchase of a micro SD card the Vivaz becomes a little more practical.</p>
<p>Available in Venus ruby, silver moon, cosmic black, and galaxy blue the mobile is a great way to capture film as well since it comes with an eight mega pixel camera that is easy to shoot and focus with shortcuts built into the phone for both purposes.</p>
<p>With a 5<sup>th</sup> edition Symbian OS and an easy to use interface, the Sony Ericsson Vivaz makes it easy to call your family and friends via the web and through traditional means.</p>
