The Sony-Ericsson SO703i--the "smell'O'phone"--will be released inJapan preloaded with a mobile version of LocoRoco, the quirky 2Dplatformer currently available only on the PlayStation Portable.
LocoRoco was developed by Sony and released in 2006. In the game,players tilt the onscreen environment to guide the cartoony LocoRococharacters to the end of each level.
The new phone also boasts a series of interchangeable fragranced "aromasheet" faceplates, which smell when the user opens up the phone. Thedisplay utilises some of the same technology that exists in Sony'sBravia televisions, and the telephone will be available on the NTTDocomo network.
