The latest rumor is that Sony Ericsson is going to release a sequel to its other touchscreen phones, the Satio and the Aino. The next in SE’s full touchscreen line, it is believed, is going to be the Sony Ericsson Jalou, an S60 5th Edition smartphone.

The Jalou is rumoured to come with WiFi and GPS and there are not supposed to be any physical buttons on the touchscreen. Anyway, we can’t confirm this till we get official word from SE themselves. Till then, stay tuned for more news.

We’d been hearing about the HTC Tilt 2 for some time and also had been suspecting it could be a variant of the HTC Touch Pro smartphone. There was news of the HTC Touch Pro 2 coming to AT&T and we had to wonder whether this was another avatar of the Tilt 2.

Sure enough, the picture below confirmed out suspicions of the same. Here is the Touch Pro 2, complete with the AT&T logo pasted on it. We still have no idea when it will be coming, but we sure hope it happens some time soon. We’re tired of the wait. Are you listening, AT&T?

One thing here – we still don’t know why AT&T would want to return to the Tilt branding, but hey, that’s how companies work sometimes.

According to some leaked reports, the Samsung Omnia 2 and the LG Chocolate Touch BL40 are supposedly gearing for release on August 23rd. A snapshot of a leaked document from Best Buy seems to indicate this news. According to these reports, the BL40 and the Omnia 2 will be released side-by-side. A veritable clash of the titans, we say!

There are supposedly some other devices on release too, including the Samsung Rogue, Solstice and a red Xenon. There is also the mention of a Samsung Tour – we don’t quite understand that, since it’s already released on Sprint and Verizon. Samsung’s “green phone”, the Reclaim, is also set for release on August 16. Hmm, looks like a good, interesting list out here. We’re just hoping all this info is true….

We have managed to get our hands on a supposed “pre-launch” list of AT&T phones. The list is very riveting indeed. It includes some very interesting phones such as the BlackBerry 9700 smartphone, Garmin-Asus nuvifone G60, the HTC Tilt 2 and something referred to as the “HTC Pure” (we still need to find out what that is, though we think it might be something like the Snap).

There are no Android or webOS smartphones on the list, though. Must say we’re disappointed with that. Anyway, the nuvifone seems to be entering the market soon. We’re hoping it makes up for everything else. What say, guys?
