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.

Expansys has now confirmed Sony Ericsson’s move into making Android smartphones. The latest smartphone from SE is code-named Rachael and is branded the X3. The specs, as given by Expansys, include a 4” touchscreen display, 2G and 3G networks, stunning 8MP autofocus camera with LED flash, image stabilization, face detection, smile shutter and VGA video recording, email clients and accounts, WiFi, aGPS and Bluetooth.
Granted that the HTC Hero is absolutely marvellous, but the X3 comes with a 1GHz processor, so we might just be interested in ditching everything else for this one. We’ll give you more information on this one very shortly.
