It looks like the partnership of Sony Ericsson and HTC are closing to their end, at least according to DigiTimes, who say that the second Xperia model from the Japanese-Swedish manufacturer won't be made by HTC, but by the Taiwanese Mobinnova. The specific reason for the decision is unknown, but itás sure that HTC has phones rival to Xperia on their range of products. The photo below doesn't show the new Xperia phone, but the Mobinnova ICE handset, based on Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, that has a 3", 240 x 400 pixels large display, a 3 megapixel camera, WLAN and HSDPA support. There are no specific infos available about the new Xperia model and it is not yet sure if it will be based on Windows Mobile.
