Just back in early January at CES, Sony Ericsson revealed three Sony Ericsson phones, the W960i,W350i and Z555i. Those phones totally rocked out. FYI, Mobile World Congress(11-14 Feb) kicked start today and Sony Ericsson and HTC kicked it off at first. 

HTC unveiled two new models , introducing HTC P3470 and the slide upgrade of HTC Advantage X751. The foremost one (Pharos) looks very smooth on the outside, great features on the inside.A ordinary  2 megapixel camera, 256MB ROM / 128MB RAM, microSD, Bluetooth 2.0, and a roomy enough 2.8-inch QVGA flush touchscreen (á la the Touch) and €449 ($650) price tag -. However, no HSDPA or UMTS, just plain old EDGE which is enough for you lower end guys. 

Next up, the Advantage, nothing much for this guy, just a slide bump on the flash memory(upped to 16GB memory from the 8GB microdrive). The new Advantage X751 is packing features TouchFLO, Opera Mobile 9, and Google Maps, as well as all the rest of the features you've come to know and love: GPS (with TomTom Navigator 6), 5-inch VGA display, 624MHz processor, ATI video acceleration (ahem), 256MB ROM / 128MB RAM, tri-band HSDPA, quad-band GSM / GPRS / EDGE, magnetic QWERTY keyboard, WiFi, Bluetooth, and Windows Mobile 6.1. It will be out in Europe around March.
