weird! you just said that satio is crap as a gaming device, when you mentioned lack of multy-touch and single-channel sound only, and then you went on claiming it’still somehow better, even though you can’t even play the game as it is intended. anyway, i have satio, wife has iphone, and i can say with certanty that satio is slow, unreliable and there simply aren’t any decent games for it. not that i would swap it for iphone, but those promisses from sony and the rest of you with vested interests, are nothing less than false advertising!

Update:
@PatS: You are right and I was mistaken about the CPU, it’s a Cortex A8. According to our sources the GPU is identically and as a matter of fact if the indentical game runs with the same framerate but at a higher resolution Satio does provide more rendering power.
@schlandler: no multi-touch, we have tweaked the controls accordingly with left/right and left+break/right+break
@Highelf: we heard about Satio being pulled which is a shame that this is due to software issues
@gerald: if the business case was there you could have PSP-style games on 3GS, unfortunately at current price points this is not the case
@schlandler: you are bloody right, man! without a proper App Store content won’t fly…
@phg: can’t give information about a release date but we are looking for Q1

When will you release Games for the Satio … like Rally Master Pro?

The Key to success lies within a functioning Online Store for the new device. If there isn’t a functioning App-Store Clone for the Xperia running in the near future, it’s not going to fly, I’m telling ya.

And I feel you are little enthousiastic about the iphone 3GS vs PSP.
The PSP games are way better than Iphone games, tell us when you see a game like god of war on Iphone (not the same prices too).

Surprising, but did You know that as much as Satio, as Nokia N97, both based on Symbian S60V5 were canceled from sale because of software problems making these phone almost useless?

Does the Sony Handset support Multi-Touch? If not, how are you going to steer RMP ? Any news on this ?
I thought only Apple had the patent on Multi-Touch.

From what I read the Satio uses a TI OMAP 3430 SOC which is based on the Cortex A8 not the ARM 11 core. You lose credibility when you make claims about a device but your facts don’t match other sources. FYI the Cortex A8 has anywhere from 2-3 times the performance of a similarly clock ARM 11. The other issue is the version of the PowerVR SGX. The Iphone uses a 535 I believe and the OMAP 3430 has a lower performance GPU so despite you claim the Satio does not have more gaming horsepower then the Iphone 3GS.
