SONY ERICSSON PLAYSTATION PHONE

Here's the real PlayStation Phone that’ll be coming in early 2011 under Sony Ericsson. Unbelievable? Yep. The look’s pretty much final here, though I’d expect Sony to somehow pump up the visual styling of it to look slightly more ‘fun’ than just plain ol’ slide out gamepad. Sony is trying hard to push this baby out in Christmas, though that seemed to be rather harsh. This thing still doesn’t look very ‘final’ to me.

The phone will boast Android 3.0 (Gingerbread), along with a custom Sony Marketplace which will allow you to purchase and download games designed for the new platform. The device snappedis sporting a 1GHz Qualcomm MSM8655 (a chip similar to the one found in the G2, but 200MHz faster), 512MB of RAM, 1GB of ROM, and the screen is in the range of 3.7 to 4.1 inches. The handset does indeed have a long touchpad in the center which is apparently multitouch, and you can see in the photos that it’s still bearing those familiar PlayStation shoulder buttons. For Sony buffs, you’ll be interested to know that there’s no Memory Stick slot here, but there is support for microSD cards.Odd right? Does Google has something to do with that?
