Sony PSP like smartphone to run on Android 3.0, release around October?

Rumors are hot regarding Sony Ericsson developing a brand new gaming platform which is surely going to give a strong fight against the likes of Google (though the irony is that this phone will be using Android). Everybody understands that gaming is going to touch new levels on Android platform and looks like it will be Sony that will define the totally different world of gaming on Android platforms. An Engadget mockup of Sony’s new PSP that might also have the features of a smartphone can be seen in the image below.
Sources define the device to be somewhere between PSP Go and Samsung Captivate. To shorten things, the yet to be named Sony’s Android based PSP will be a slider which will have game controls instead of the very obvious QWERTY keyboard. Instead of any tiny joystick, the device is said to have a long touch pad for easier controls of your game. The device will of course have the standard PSP buttons and shoulder buttons.
The phone will have a large display which will be around 3.7×4.1 inches in size. It might also have a 5 mega pixel camera with 1 GHz Snapdragon CPU to boost its speed. Sony is still deciding upon the branding of this device. It could be somewhere between Xperia and PlayStation. Sources reveal the phone to be extremely sexy though we can only wait for the real looks of this upcoming Sony machine. But it certainly looks to shape a much better phone than the Aino which ended pretty badly in the end.
There isn’t any confirmation about the release of this device yet but it will be somewhere around October which isn’t pretty far away for Sony fans
