If you ever needed a reason to commit harri karri then let me introduce you to the Sony Ericsson Cybershot with a 5.1 megapixel camera, Xenon flash, 3x optical zoom, 480×864 resolution 2.7 inch screen in a device that is only 113 × 50 × 20 mm and weights 150 grams. At the Symbian Smartphone Show I got to play with Japenese cellphones and one of the first things that struck me was how they’re essentially all large clamshells, I’m talking Nokia N93 large.

It makes sense when you think about how many hours of the day these people spend buried in their device. A large screen that can fit a lot of data is a must. I admit I’m jealous and while I’m not usually a fan of clamshells, that resolution would make me switch in a heart beat. Damn thing has a higer resolution than the Internet Tablet and most UMPC’s!

Expect this beast to be announced tomorrow as apart of NTT DoCoMo’s new 905i lineup.
