When it comes to keeping their customers anxiously awaiting a product, nobody beats Apple and their iPhone. Sony Ericsson definitely comes second, with rumors regarding various handsets of theirs showing up every now and then.

In each phone's case,

it takes a whole bunch of rumors and leaked photos until customers actually get to see Sony Ericsson launch the handset.

Elena spy shots have surfaced yet again, revealing a handset that looks (not at all surprisingly) just like an M600 with a slight design change. The rumored features remain the same and include a 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus (up until now missing from Sony Ericsson's business dedicated handset), WiFi and maybe HSDPA.

The Elena should also come with the newest version of UIQ, UMTS and support for M2 memory cards. If this is in fact the case and the Elena does pack a camera, it should most likely be more popular than the M600 has been, with quite a few users having avoided to pick a M600 because it lacked a camera.

On the other hand, business users might not appreciate this quite so much, with some of them not being allowed to use a mobile phone with a camera. The phone in the photo does seem pretty realistic and the chances of it being a Photoshop creation are quite slim. Now, since we're getting to see the Elena in all its stylishness in the wild, one can assume that it won't take long for Sony Ericsson to make an official announcement and start shipping this handset. Also, according to rumors, it should be out around mid-April or May.
