Normally we leave the floral and pink products up to our friends at Shiny Shiny, but I know some women read this site, and I’m sure some male readers would be interested in this phone which has apparently taken inspiration straight from the catwalk.

The S500i has been out for a while, but Sony Ericsson felt the need to cover it in flowers and call it ‘limited edition’. Featuring a 2.0-megapixel camera with 4x digital zoom, Sony Ericsson claims you can access websites easily, and even email and blog. PlayNow is thrown in as well, giving you music file and ringtone downloads.

Sony Ericsson could use mobile phone camera as motion controller for gaming

Proof there’s more than one way to skin a cat, with news that Sony Ericsson could utilise the cameras on its mobile phones to act as an iPhone-like motion sensor, which could then be used to control games.

They’ve partnered with GestureTek, a Californian company, to add software to their handsets from September, and it’s possible that existing phones could also use the technology provided their software can be updated.
