14 DAY TRIAL // Pictures of a so called "mini me" of Sony Ericsson's P990 can be found on the Internet. The new phone is dubbed to be named P970, and it's a slimmer and smaller version of its much bigger brother P990.
It is not known if the photos are official or real, but the phone looks really good. The P970 is the reduced size version of P990. At first sight the main difference is the lack of the QWERTY keyboard. Instead of the old keyboard, only numerical buttons are present, like in any other phones.
Also, P970 is said to feature the Symbian UIQ 3.0 interface and all the functions that P990 has, plus Wi-Fi. The phone is said to be 3G enabled and might feature also Sony's Walkman mp3 player capabilities.
The P970 will probably be youth oriented, as it is rumored to sport a 2 or 3 megapixel camera. This might just be true, as Sony Ericsson's W900 has a graphic chipset capable of dealing with a 3 megapixel camera.
If a phone like P970 will finally be launched, it might be a hit, because it features PDA capabilities, decent photo camera, mp3 player capabilities and an attractive design.
