Branded as a member of the Cyber-shot phone line-up

A rumor here, a rumor there and this is how a new week ends: in the foggy land of rumors. The newest one has arrived in front of my eyes due to a leaked photo of a supposedly LI handset developed by Sony Ericsson and, after my total and complete disappointment yesterday when I saw the latest and the best quality photos of the AI until now (a phone which should have been something revolutionary or at least coming with a more interesting design), I can only hope this will remain a rumor because its AI cousin doesn't look too impressive.

What in the god's name has happened to Sony Ericsson or to their design team? They must suffer from a severe lack of inspiration or something very close to this.

Please guys, go to a check-up and go back to the drawing board because no matter how slim those phones are going to be, people will not like a device resembling the "futuristic" communications gadgets appearing in the 60-70s Sci-Fi movies.

Getting back to the LI, the phone is said to come with a 2 megapixel digital camera with auto-focus technology, an M2 memory expansion card slot and with a Cyber-shot brand written under the keypad. What is available on it from the connectivity point of view?

Until now, the only feature of this type that I got my hands on is the EDGE and till next time I will gather up some pieces of info about the LI; let us all be thankful to the people posting the pictures on the web and wait along for some more Sony Ericcson rumors, related or not the LI I'm writing about here.
