The handset brings together the Walkman and Cyber-shot brands to create "the best of both our products", the company says. The full 640 x 350 3.5-inch touchscreen device features a 12.1 megapixel camera, dual-band HSPA, microSD expansion, and a xenon flash. It will be available in three colours - black, silver, and 'bordeaux' red - from October. The world's fourth-largest mobile phone maker posted a £293m loss in the first quarter of the year as demand for its handsets plummeted. Sony Ericsson hopes that the new Satio phone will help reverse its fortunes. Worldwide mobile phone sales fell by 8.6% in the first three months of this year with "mid-market" phones, traditionally ones sold by Sony Ericsson, suffering the biggest drop in sales. By contrast demand for so-called smartphones such as the iPhone and Nokia 5800 has been growing. Sony Ericsson also launched two other phones - the Aino and Yari - which it says will "revolutionise" gaming and audio experience. The Satio hansdset will be available for free on £35-per-month contracts with all the UK's mobile phone operators. http://xperia-x1.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/sony-ericsson-satio.jpg Edited June 5, 2009 by Jelly Bean Quote Rwy'n ceisio fy ngorau......................
