The Platstation compatible phone from Sony Ericsson, Aino has developed touchscreen issues (details sketchy) and is no longer on sale. Recently another SE model Satio featuring a 12MP camera was also delayed with some software bug. The company will surely take a setback on its plan to go profitable again, missing out big time on the holiday season sales with 2 of their recent releases not being on sale.
Sony Ericsson is certainly having a tough time and for some reason I always find their software buggy and slow, right from the T610 (which was a great phone in its time IMO) to the K750i / K850i that I used. Hope they get on the right track with better smartphone than just wow gadgets.

Along with the 12 Mp Satio, Sony Ericsson unveiled the PS3 compatible Aino. Aino boasts of features like 3″ touchscreen, 8.1Mp camera, 3G and WiFi along with a PS3 compatibility. The PS3 compatibility would give the PS3 users a Remote Play feature which can sync all your PS3 images, audio and video with the Aino.
No, this phone cannot sync the HD games (which makes it a sort-of-PSP-phone). Aino can also sync all your media files from your computer using the SE’s Media Go multimedia manager. SE didn’t say anything about pulling your media through the 3G network. Aino is also compatible with PlayTV which lets users watch recorded TV content over the internet.
Other features include slideout numeric keypad, bluetooth, GPS, a charging base, wireless headsets and an 8GB SD card.
Aino will be available in two colours (Black and White) and is supposed to hit a “selected market” in Q4. No words on pricing yet.
