Has Sony-Ericsson become completely careless, or is it an new intentional strategy to leak product information? If the leaking carries on like this, there simply won't be any mobile phones left to introduce during the Mobile World Congress 2010 in Barcelona.

We have now come across the Sony Ericsson Kurara, which is supposedly a Symbian S60 5th generation OS Smartphone.

I am appalled, I can't find a better word to express myself. What's the use of press spokesmen, press events and all sorts of seemingly official introductions, when the information itself is left loose on the Internet? Take for example the Sony Ericsson Xperia 3, a phone based on the Google Android OS. Officially, the Sony Ericsson Android Smartphone does not yet even exist, however, several pictures of the Xperia 3 can already be found, including several phone specifications. Sony Ericsson just doesn't seem capable of keeping product information away from the Net, while at the same time, journalists are expected to keep their mouths shut because of an NDA. Who's the fool here?
