I like that HAYABUSA name, sounds like a yakusa samurai of some sort. I wonder if it somehow has any resemblance to the super bike made by Suzuki. . .

Ninja Gaiden, Dead or Alive franchise. Ring any bells?

Both franchises took the name Hayabusa from the Japanese hawk. FYI

Its a Quad Core Fast Device with Glass Less HD 3D screen and 3D recording. Hence the name.

Kinda wished the Hayabusa would be a quad core phone with speed and power to live up to its name =)

From the logic of "what you pay is what you get", kinda makes you think what kinda phone is the "Mint 1" / "Mint I"~ XD

Sony will revolutionize android this year.
MINT FTW! :D
i bet xperia play successor is one of those two high end phones.
It think it will have a quad core s4 proc, or pick up that beasty GPU from the vita (quad core power VR SGX543)
But here's what i would do if i were Sony CEO - i'd drop the sliding gamepad concept, and offer the playstation gamepad acessory as an option for the entire high end range - the Xperia Play 2 just being the usual candybar form, but coming with the loads of games pre loaded, as well as with that gamepad as the part of the retail package

thinkin' about it makes me wonder if either the Hayabusa or the mint will be the Xperia Play successor.

so much for outing a "few" if not "one".... any way the list can be considered a "few" i guess...

By the way, just to let you know, other than the iPhone and 2-3 other phones, India does not have contract pricing. We just buy the phone and put whatever SIM card we have into it. So, these must be contract-free prices (although I heard Sony is tying up with a carrier for one model). I'm also guessing these are the MRP, which means the market prices will be slightly lower. The online store prices may be a shade lower than "the lower".
