Sony Ericsson Introdcues 2 New Handsets ... and Re-names Idou (Satio)    [ 29-05-2009 19:33 ]

Yesterday Sony Ericsson revealed two new handets as well as officially introducing the previously revealed Idou, now re-christened as Satio. The first of the new handsets, Yari, is a 5 MP cameraphone that is the first Sony Ericsson handset to feature the Walkman 4 player, which will include support for Walkman themes. The handset looks set to be marketed as a 'fun' and/or 'gaming' handset with its motion and gesture control and it's media applications like SenseMe. The second handset is Aino, which is in some ways the counterpart to Satio (Idou). It's part of Sony Ericsson's new Entertainment Unlimited series and features an 8 MP camera with AF and the usual SE camera goodies such as BestPic, geo-tagging, face detection, etc. The screen is a 16 million colour 3-inch capacative touchscreen, although the touchscreen is only active when in media player mode or camera mode (e.g. for touch focus). Aino has a slide out keypad for input when not in touchscreen mode. One last feature worth noting is the PS3 Remote Play service, which allows the Aino to interact with the owner's PS3 from anywhere in the world to download/stream content from the PS3.

Satio we've seen before of course in its guise as Idou. We won't say too much about Satio since it is already well known and you can read our preview of the device here. The one thing that many may comment upon is the change in name ... Idou somehow seems a little cooler.
