Sony Ericsson Concerned Over Services, No Upcoming Android Handset

Speaking at a media event in Copenhagen this week, Sony Ericsson's chief technology architect Mats Lindoff spoke about the companies involvement with the Android platform and their concerns over services.

Sony Ericsson have been working with the Android platform on a number of prototypes although they seem hesitant about an Android powered handset release:

"[But] to go with mass production and working with prototypes are two different things," he explained. "If you want to give every service away to Google, then Android is the perfect solution."

Sony Ericsson confirmed that it has been testing Android, but does not have plans to launch handsets based on the platform anytime soon.
