Xperia Infinity Posted on: October 26, 2009
This page just popped up on SE's website and was quickly picked up by se-blog.com. As you can see it clearly states some major things regarding Sony-Ericsson's first Android phone are about to happen on November 3.
In the source code (also in the alt of the "infinity" image) you can see references to the codename "rachael" the name for Android Xperia during development. The official name for the device is yet unknown, except for the Xperia part.
Initially was thought it will be called Xperia X3 as a continuity to the Xperia X1 and X2 line. But most likely this will not be the case since Nokia has it's own X3 phone and it will raise some trademark issues. Some speculated the Android phone to be named Xperia X10 but this is just speculation, with no real base.
Now, considering the image above, folks at Phandroid came with the name Xperia Infinity, because the alt of the infinity icon says "Rachael - infinity". Donno if Infinity is part of the phone's name (like Xperia Infinity or something) or just a part of the marketing campain. Heck it might just be the name of the image, sice it's not written with a capital letter, like "Rachael" is.
As a conclusion, regardless of this phone's name, it will be revealed on November 3 and that's all that matters, considering we had to wait more than a year for this to materialise.
