Sony Ericcson. Satio. Symbian. Synergy?
Sony Ericsson has just announced released Satio, a handset designed to deliver the “ultimate” multimedia and communications experience. Our quotes, not theirs.
Satio is the first Sony Ericsson handset to be based on the open platform Symbian Foundation operating system, so users can download and install new applications and content straight to their mobile handset. Looks like Sony Ericsson has cottoned on to this whole “app” concept.
What’s it got? A 12.1MP camera, touch features, Xenon flash, 3.5-inch 16:9 screen, ninth High Definition (nHD) gaming, and “mobile High Definition TV experience”. Huh?
It lands early November with an RRP of $1199.

By “just announced” you mean “announced in February,” right?
Good job guys..
Right you are. My bad. It’s a release, not an announcement. As in released for the Australian market. The Satio was first announced earlier this year at Barcelona as the Idou. I shall now sit in the corner and profusely weep with embarrassment until I can weep no more.
Where is the gorram Hero?

12.1Mp camera? What size is the camera sensor I wonder? All those megapixels crammed onto a small chip just make for markedly worse quality photos. It sounds suspiciously like a marketing exercise of “mine’s bigger than yours,” aimed at the uninformed consumer. Just like marketers have got away with for years on video cameras with “240x zoom”, or boom-boxes with “1,500 watts.” Meaningless drivel aimed at consumers who don’t take the time to research before they buy.
