The pictures of the Adriana Concept show a handset resembling the M600 and J220 from Sony-Ericsson.

Some pictures that wander around the world wide web might suggest that Sony-Ericsson could be working on something pretty extraordinary. This a good looking device, branded by the some unknown person as "The Adriana Concept", that borrows some ideas from the Sony M600 and the Sony J220 handsets, with a final result which could deliver quite a punch in the face to the other DVB-H mobile phones manufacturers.

This would be true only if Sony-Ericsson is really working on this phone, and, if this rumor is confirmed, this could be their first Digital Video Broadcast-Handheld device. Following this assumption, we can guess that it could play videos and view TV streams; with a possibility to record the favorite shows on its, now hypothetical, more than enough internal memory. This feature would be a direct consequence of some kind of time-shift ability when viewing the TV streams, and for the fans of this type of stuff this would be a real innovation in DVB-H technology.

Another possible feature would most surely be the ability of landscape operation of the Adriana Concept, a real must have for the users that want to surf the internet and have a true ride on the information highway.

Until this gets official, I think we can make as many guesses as we want, but this just won't make it true. Maybe somebody should send the guys at Sony-Ericsson these pictures in case they don't have it yet, and give them an idea of what their next move could be.
