Sony Ericsson's no show, yet again

Sony Ericsson (SE Mobile Communications Japan), yet again, didn’t show up as a phone in NTT DoCoMo’s summer collection. Sony Ericsson may be taking a break from contractual agreements with NTT Docomo for the time-being due to earlier reports, but they are still making handsets in Japan for japanese operator au KDDI so it is unknown whether this is just a temporary stance or a long-term interruption.

We'll just have to wait for KDDI’s summer collection , which may contain the mysterious Xperia SOX01. Sony Ericsson recently released a new japanese phone, the iida G9, a slider that’s gotten a fancy treatment.( Check out the images)



The G9 features a 1Seg TV tuner and supports 1X, CDMA and GSM networks. It also has a titanium compound used as a coating for the stainless steel body, adding a touch of class into the mix. With a 480 x 854 3-inch touchscreen display, a microSD card slot, and a 3.2-megapixel camera, the G9 is actually really similar to the Sony Ericsson Cyber-shot S001.

You can record content using this device and you can use a mobile pico projector to display content received from the 1Seg tuner on your wall or a screen. Other features include GPS, Bluetooth, mobile wallet, 3.5 hours of talk time and 230 hours of standby. The G9 is set to launch in Japan sometime in August. Three color options will be available including a black finish with green accents, a titanium finish with silver accents and a mirror finish with pink accents.
