Sony Ericsson Windows Phone 7 “in the pipeline”

By Mat Smith on Monday, January 24 2011Though we have not seen anything Winpho7 from Sony Ericsson yet, sources say the company is preparing Windows phones along with their future Android additions.Though there have been occasional rumors since last summer, these latest ones, according to sources from Taiwan-based handset makers.It remains to be seen where this is the phone previously codenamed \Julie \\ u0026quot;, which came with a sliding keyboard and multi-touch screen, or something completely different.Back then, there was no image evidence then, and it all fizzled out, until Sony Ericsson now.Forthcoming Android phones include curvey Arc, and that the rumor-ridden PlayStation phone, which, like these seven Window Phone models are not yet officially announced.The typical pinch- of salt-rule, but it might be worth waiting for the Mobile World Conference next month if you are desperate need of a WP7-toting Sony Ericsson phone.Via, Digi Times, via BGR.
The last we heard from Sony Ericsson in the form of Windows 7 Phone was back in mid-January and it was a pretty generic sounding at roadmap.Well, flash forwards to today and it looks like they may have been a little more prepared to launch a device that they originally let on - that's assuming we believe this latest report is accurate.First things first, the report is going through the sometimes accurate and sometimes not as accurate DigiTimes.That said, according to the story, which for these sources, a general sounding Taiwan-based handset makers.But goes back to January, and this seems to fit, after all, while it seemed that Sony Ericsson was not prepared to give out anything on this time.Or even have to make an announcement at the time, they have never said that they would not release something with Windows 7 Phone. In fact, at the time they not only that they were on the roadmap, but that they were not going to be in the first wave.
Otherwise, the digital hour also failed to provide any more solid, not even a rumoured time frame or unit codename.That said, we must be on the lookout, who knows, maybe an announcement comes with a device launch is still a couple months out. If nothing else, after seeing that Sony Ericsson Arc and design that is sport, a new device with Windows 7 Phone can make quite a splash.
