This one’s been floating around a little bit, but somehow, someway, Sony Ericsson is making a return to T-Mobile USA. Plus they’re the first HSDPA handset to launch, too! The specs are not incredible by any means, but for just an average phone, they’ll do just fine. Here’s a recap of the specifications:

  • 2.0 megapixel camera
  • Tri-band 850/1800/1900 GSM/GPRS/EDGE (boo!)
  • Dual-band UMTS/HSDPA 1700/2100
  • Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP
  • microSD slot
  • Video recording
  • IM

If you’re feeling up to it, you should be able to snag one come September 3rd, for a price not yet determined. Who’s going to be the first taker? Full size image after the break…
