Sony has already put Cybershot and Walkman branding on the Sony Ericssons, but they say that PlayStation will not leave their building. When the PlayStation Portable (PSP) was announced, everyone wanted a PSP phone as well. Large display, excellent gaming capabilities, etc. It seems that if that does happen, it will be a Sony, and not a Sony Ericsson.
It is true that Sony gave two brands to the junction, but we don't know what effort Ericsson has put into it. It would be great to have a PSP phone, obviously properly sized, and not a huge console. Better than that would be a mixture between Cybershot, Walkman, and PSP, having a great camera, great music features, and a great gaming platform would mean big time competition for Nokia flagships, compare it to the N95: great sound, great camera, NGage.
The current bet by Sony Ericsson for gaming platforms is the F305, with motion sensor gaming. If it gets a big turnout, they might release something better.
