Remember the Aino cellphone that we mentioned a few months ago, on May? The good news is that Sony Ericsson announced that the device is now available for purchase, unlocked, with a price tag of $600.

The Aino is compatible with AT&T and in terms of technical features it boasts quad-band GSM/EDGE and tri-band UMTS/HSPA 850/1900/2100.

In case you forgot the specifications of the Aino, it comes with a 3-inch touchscreen, a 8.1-megapixel camera, GPS, and Sony Remote Play among other good details.

The Aino may not be a smartphone, but from what we know about the featurephone and from the video above, it pretty much doesn’t need an operating system.  Apart from the usual menagerie of specifications like 3G, aGPS, WiFi, and Bluetooth Stereo, the U10i also prides itself with an 8.1 megapixel camera and a 3-inch 16-million-color touchscreen display.  The Aino also supports Remote Play with the PS3 and PlayTV service, which opens up whole new ways of loading media onto the device.  Watch the video above to know more.

What you see above is a recently released image of the Sony Ericsson Aino that comes to us as part of the device’s FCC filing. We’ve heard of this device once before, when Sony Ericsson first announced it, but at that time its release date was still a ways off.

Now, we still don’t have a release date but at least we know that a North American 3G version of the Aino is officially on its way. Couple that with the phone’s 3-inch touchscreen, slide out keypad, 8.1 megapixel camera and GPS and you have yourself a a none too shabby device.

Sony Ericsson is set to unveil a new dandy handset with the Sony Ericsson U10i. It was originally known as the Aino, a mobile phone that had buzzed around in May. The U10i is GPS enabled and features an 8.1 MP digital camera and a slide out keypad form factor.

The Sony Ericsson U10i also includes a full touch screen display and supports microSD cards. The phone is equipped with the usual Bluetooth connectivity along with a removable 100mAh battery. There will also be other phones available such as the U10a and the U10.

Despite going to some rough times, Sony Ericsson can still afford to launch new phones like the Yari and Aino. The Yari is a slider ready for gestured-controlled gaming. It comes with a 2.4-inch display, GPS and support for those PlayNow services. The Aino comes with a 3-inch touchscreen and it offers a numeric slide-out keypad, a 8.1 megapixel camera, Sony Remote Play support, GPS and HSPA connectivity.

The Yari will be available in the last quarter of the year and it will cost you about $558. The Aino will also be available in the last quarter but we don’t have any pricing details so far. What will you choose between the Yari and the Aino?
