Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro spotted at the FCC

About two months back, we had reported that Sony Ericsson had announced two new handsets – the Xperia Mini and the Xperia Mini Pro. They both sport the same hardware internally, with a 3-inch multitouch screen sporting Sony’s Bravia Engine with Reality Display, a 1GHz processor, a camera capable of recording in 720p and it should be Gingerbread-ready right out of the box.

The main difference between the two devices would be that the Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro will sport a slide out keyboard, for those who prefer typing on physical keys.

Well for those who have been eyeing the device, the good news is that it was recently spotted at the FCC, which means it’s only a matter of time before we actually see the device hit the shelves. No word yet on a tentative release date, but we’re guessing it shouldn’t take too long.
