The XPERIA X2 almost had its time, but the high end device was simply too buggy and unstable in the very end. The device was supposed to be launched last December but got pushed to January –a bad move which got it pulled out of Vodafone UK’s 2010 lineup. Despite that fact that this WinMo phone has been sent to tech oblivion, SE has another business model device, and from the initial specs, it looks very promising.

The biggest news is that Sony Ericsson’s new WinMo phone is a Greenheart device. It comes as to no surprise as the company has been working hard in order to meet their CO2 emissions reductions goal (something that many other electronics companies should be doing). In fact, Greenpeace has tagged Sony Ericsson as the company as the second highest green electronics manufacturer in the world next to Nokia in their Guide to Greener Electronics.

Anyway, the new Sony Ericsson Aspen is very business-like in terms of appearance. There’s a hint of BlackBerry in its overall form, but that distinct Sony style is present in the deep cut lines and solid form of the device. The 2.4 inch touch screen serves nicely as a display while the portrait oriented physical QWERTY keyboard will help typing long emails and messages a breeze.

The OS version of WinMo to be used in this device is reported to be 6.5.3 Maldives –making this a candidate for announcement at the upcoming Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain where it is expected that the new WinMo OS will be presented.

Sony’s current lineup of mobile phones is very promising, and considering the fact that the Swedish-Japanese joint venture is losing money each year, they certainly need to generate some serious profit this 2010.
