Sony Ericsson Idou handset is latest and unique handsets at Mobile World Congress.Sony Ericsson has gone on the record to state that the Idou — a Symbian-powered device with a 3.5″ touchscreen, monstrous 12 megapixel camera and GPS — is slated to commence retail sales in October with November being the fall-back date.The new Sony Ericsson Idou will probably create as much hype as the original XPERIA.
Sony Ericsson showcased its 12.1 MP Idou handset at Mobile World Congress. The Idou eventually is expected to be rolled out with the Symbian Foundation's OS, but the version we're seeing here is somewhere in between.Not only is it the first 12 megapixel GSM cameraphone, but it's also the first device presented to ever run on the brand new open source Symbian user interface that's still being developed by the Symbian FoundationThe touchscreen of the phone is pretty eye-catching with its glossy feel and the phone truly looks promising.
The 3.5-inch touchscreen with a resolution of 360 x 640 pixels, GPS and Wi-Fi and the relatively compact size are just an added bonus to that already impressive novel package.

Sony Ericsson Idou sees broad daylight for the first time at this year's MWC
The Sony Ericsson Idou is nowhere near complete - they haven't even come up with a marketing model name yet as Idou is still code name for the device. The show-off devices that the Sony Ericsson staff had at the event varied from graphically rich dummy phones to basic early-stage prototypes. We really hope that the final product will be as responsive as the units showed today.
