Sony Ericsson Hecaro - will it steal the mobile phones crown from the iPhone 3G?

With the announcement of the Symbian Foundation, it seems that Sony Ericsson are moving away from making UIQ-powered mobile phones . But if they're going to take on the new threat of the Apple iPhone 3G, they need to do something. Is that something the upcoming, super-secret 'Hecaro' ? Sony Ericsson's flagship mobile phones Sony Ericsson mobile phones are famous for (as well as being damn GOOD mobile phones ) being split up into separate product ranges. Walkman, Cyber-Shot, Xperia, Bravia (for the Japanese market only), and Snapshot are names you'll see attached to Sony Ericsson . Each product range is designed specifically to be all-powerful in one area, and you'll find flagship mobile phones in each range, mobile phones that rock the best specs and have the most cool stuff. So, for example, in the Cyber-Shot range of mobile phones , you have the Sony Ericsson C905, an 8 megapixel monster that is surely set to set the world of camera phone alight. Another keyproduct range over at Sony Ericsson is the Walkman range, mobile phones dedicated to music. And it's here where things start to get interesting because if the rumours are correct, what Sony Ericsson will be giving us, as the flagship Walkman mobile phone, is something designed to go toe-to-toe with the Apple iPhone 3G. Everything about this new Walkman flagship is secret, so far, but some rumours HAVE leaked out, specifically that it will have a HUGE touchscreen, 5 megapixel camera, a BRAND NEW interface, 16Gb of memory, and basically outclass all other mobile phones with ease. Whether it's true or not remains to be seen, but it does also lead to one other EXTREMELY interesting possibility. You see, when Sony Ericsson make a flagship phone, they don't actually just stop at one phone; they make TWO mobile phones , that share the same technology. We've seen it before, with the M600/W950, and it happened again the P1/W960. But what could the sibling phone to the new Walkman flagship be? Sony Ericsson Hecaro - the most powerful and amazing mobile phone in the known universe The rumour mill is going wild at the moment, with a Sony Ericsson mobile phone alleged to be unveiled some time in July. Called by its development prototype-name of 'Hecaro', if the rumours are true, it is poised to take up its place as the most advanced mobile phone ever. Essentially, the news coming down the rumour mill wire says that the Sony Ericsson Hecaro WILL be the sister-phone to the new 16Gb Walkman phone, and that both mobile phones will be super-powered, and will easily outclass everything else in the mobile world (yes, EVEN the iPhone 3G, Apple fanboys) If these rumours are true, then we can expect the Sony Ericsson Hecaro to be another mobile phone with a massive touchscreen and the brand new interface from the flagship Walkman, plus 5MP camera, plus more innovation than anything we've seen up to now. If it really is true... well, this could be one of the single most important mobile phones ever made!
