Sony’s Shinobu Walkman slider slips out

Sony Shinobu

Another day, another Sony Ericsson phone gets leaked. This time it’s the upcoming Walkman slider, codenamed ‘Shinobu’, which has popped up on a Polish auction site and then squeezed onto the rest of the web via the Esato forums. Boasting a 2.4″ QVGA (240 x 320 pixel) screen with support for up to 16 million colours, the 12.5mm-thin phone also comes with a two-megapixel camera, and what might be a light sensor next to the screen. Speculation runs that this new Walkman may officially see the light of day before the end of May.

    ohhhhh, nice. But why a Polish auction site?

    From what we can tell, there might be a Sony factory in Poland… but that might also just be internet hearsay.
