Just when we thought that Sony Ericsson will keep all its cool phone stuff for the MWC next month, eagle-eyed nomads spotted an advertising banner in Las Vegas that shows the rumored Sony Ericsson X12, codenamed Anzu. The tagline is "Believe in more entertainment at the touch of a button".
Silly catchphrase aside, we are really excited about this one - it seems amazingly thin, should sport a 4"+ screen and HDMI-out, as well as Android 2.3 Gingerbread. It was also rumored to be available in Q1 this year, so it might as well be announced at CES, instead of MWC.
We sincerely hope the Anzu will wash the shame away from the Xperia line, as we still can't fathom how it shipped with Android 1.6, and stayed this way for so long. Still, nothing says it will be a member of the Xperia line, but the "X" in one of the rumored names. We should know pretty soon.
We are at the CES show, so we will keep our ears open at the press conference for the eventual announcement. Excited about this one?
