Ericsson Android Smartphone Coming Soon

Oct 27 2009, 8:34am CDT | by Robert Evans

Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh. I'm sorry folks, but journalistic detachment is going to take a holiday for this article. All of the tech blogs have been geeking out over the upcoming Ericsson Rachel smartphone since the first news of it leaked a few months back. Now Android and Me brings news of a promo on Sony's website that hints at a November 3 announcement concerning 'Project Rachel'. We don't know yet who will carry the X3, but current rumors hint at T-Mobile.

AndroidGuys has some more detailed information about the new Xperia smartphone. It will run Android 2.0 (d'uh), pack a 1 GHz snapdragon processor, and come with a beastly 8.1 MP camera. It's also set to have 32 GB of internal storage and a 4.1" OLED touchscreen. That's right a 4.1" OLED touchscreen. Are you drooling yet? Because I am.

Oh, and that's not all. AndroidGuys has the X3 packing 1080p playback and (possibly) the ability to record HD video. It's not entirely clear yet, but the X3's marketing name could turn out to be the Infinity. We'll know for sure on the 3rd.
