In a possible break from their single letter naming scheme for new devices, Sony has filed to trademark the name “Xperia Sola” with the U.S. Trademark and Patents Office. This comes at the heels of the announcement of the Xperia Ion, Sony’s first U.S. bound smartphone.
Could it be one of the mysterious devices in the leaked 2012 roadmap from last month? Maybe. Maybe not. Sometimes companies register trademarks that they never end up using, though considering Sony’s attachment to the Xperia name, I would bet on it becoming a reality.
In Spanish, the word sola is the feminine form of the word solo, or “alone”. Could this be a hint? Anyone have any predictions as to what this could turn out to be?
