New Sony Ericsson phone integrates with PS3

Written by Andre Yoskowitz @ 28 May 2009 9:09 User comments (6)

New Sony Ericsson phone integrates with PS3 Sony Ericsson has introduced their latest touch screen phone today, the Aino, which they promise will integrate tighter with the PSP and PS3 consoles than any phone they have ever released.
The Aino is a touchscreen slider, with a full number pad under the 3-inch screen. Users can use the Remote Play "feature to listen to music or watch videos from the console when away from home."

An additional feature, dubbed 'Media Home', will allow users to sync content from a PC using Wi-Fi as long as the phone is being charged. The phone also includes an 8.1 MP camera including image stabilization. Expandable microSDHC slot allows for up to 32GB in extra memory, and a free 8GB card comes in the box.



The phone, available to North American and European consumers, will be available in the fall.

No price was revealed.

This is all well and good i remember researching phones with my cousin the only thing that stopped us getting this was the fact that it was card memory and not a hard drive like the old phone so we went ahead and got the old phone regardless of how crappy the camera was on it.

I have moved over from nokia to sony erricsson cause they have become more reliable. The funny thing is that i left erricson before they teamed up with sony cause i thought that erricson was lagging behind and had to many problems ohh how they have improved over the years.

I love SE phones. This isnt the nicest looking of the bunch--but being able to sync media to it is great.
