sonyericsson-kikiAlongside some additional Rachael eye candy, these renders of a new handset from Sony Ericsson called Kiki have also bubbled up. Not much is known about this slider aside from the fact that the screen can be viewed from both the back and the front. Why would you need something like that? Who knows. LG has already been getting in on the whole transperancy gimmick, but we’ll probably see a few more manufacturers give the idea a try, even if it’s just to cash in on the novelty value. The Kiki is a neat idea, if nothing else – we’ll just have to keep our ears open for some specifications.
