miniはクレジットカードよりも小さいそうで...。

日本ではDocomoから発売予定のXperiaですが、ソニー・エリクソンがXperiaの新型「mini pro」と「Xperia X10 mini」を発表しました。写真左がキーボード内蔵の「mini pro」で、右が「Xperia X10 mini」です。

Xperiaがそうであったように、Android搭載。そして、前面マルチタッチに対応しています。以下動画です。

この動画を見る限りではとてもいい感じに見えますよねー。なんか4月にドコモから出るXperiaよりこっちが気になっちゃうのは、新しもの好きの僕だけでしょうか。

ちなみにドコモの広報に問い合わせたところ、「先の報道資料の通り、Xperiaを発売予定としています」だそうで、現在のところminiの登場は無いとのことです。

以下プレスリリース文です。
　

Today sees the announcement of Xperia™ X10 mini and X10 mini pro, compact versions of Xperia™ X10, which will deliver powerful and application packed mobile phones into the industry. By introducing mobile phones that are both compact and clever, Sony Ericsson is challenging the norm and defining a brand new offering that combines high specification features with a version of Sony Ericsson's powerful UX platform specifically designed for smaller devices.
Xperia™ X10 mini and X10 mini pro with slide out QWERTY keyboard offer an open and intuitive communication entertainment experience and build on the human curvature design philosophy debuted by the Sony Ericsson Xperia™ X10. Combining the Android platform with signature applications and a customisable UX platform, communication truly becomes entertainment with these new mobile phones. To enhance the experience, pick and choose from a multitude of applications at Android Market™ and co-create a mobile phone experience that is entirely unique. Users can go one step further and customise the home screen's four corners and widgets to access the most needed applications for limitless possibilities.
The two sister mobile phones incorporate the signature application Sony Ericsson Timescape™ which brings all communication together in one place so users can see at a glance text messages, missed calls, and Facebook™ and Twitter updates, without having to open lots of different applications. The interactive music player also uses the "infinite button" to pull together all music content from the music store and YouTube™ - a smart way to search for new tracks from a favourite artist.
"There has been an enormous buzz around Xperia™ X10 so it is really exciting to be already unveiling compact versions of this powerful proposition." Said Rikko Sakaguchi, EVP and Chief Creation Officer, Sony Ericsson. "With the X10 mini and X10 mini pro we have pushed the boundaries of what is possible with smaller devices and are giving consumers exactly what they want; two high performance mobile phones with a fully customisable user experience platform and a stunning ultra-compact design."
