Translation:

Ericsson's platform department, which makes the hardware to Sony ERicsson and other mobile phone makers, has introduced a new platform, U500. U500 has 12-MP camera, advanced drivers for 3D.graphic and a screen resolution of upto 800x480 pixles.


Its not entirely true that Ericsson does not make mobile phones anymore, they still make radio part and other hardware, which is sold as a platform
which Sony Ericsson and a range of other manufacturers make mobile phones of.

Ericsson's latest platform is called U500 and is aimed for use in mass market multimedia phones. In the specification Ericsson lists video recording of high quality, 12-MP camera, wvga screen (800x480 pixles), advanced 3D-graphics for games and user interface in 3D, CD sound quality and high resolution recording. This is achieved with three ARM11 pocessors and additional hardware accelerators.

The path from platform to complete phones is long. U500 will not be available comercially until first half of 2009 and thereafter it will take some additional time before phones bsed on the platform will appear. DOn't count on phones based on U500 until 2010.
