Sony Ericsson To Launch 8.1 Megapixel Cybershot Phone?

It looks like there still is newsworthy news after the launch of the iPhone 3G. Sony Ericsson has let another juicy bit of news slip out, this time in the form of a killer slider, said to be the Cyber-shot C905, codenamed “Shiho”.

Based on the rumored specs, it’s going to have an 8.1 megapixel camera! If that wasn’t enough, it also will have both xenon and LED flashes (for still and video capture, respectively), GPS, TV out, DLNA certification and HSDPA, available in European and American flavors. If there is a downside, it’s that the screen is just QVGA resolution, but with the other features, I’m sure users will be willing to accept that.

Apparently it will be announced on the 17th June in gold, silver and black, and is slated for a Q4 release.
