The W10's built-in music and media player will support H.264-coded video (high-quality compressed video), Adobe Flash Lite, and SRS WOW HD audio enhancement. The handset comes with 4GB of internal memory and can be expanded with miniSD memory cards.

Other nice additions include GPS, access to the Bugs Music Service for online audio, e-book capability, and an electronic dictionary.
