iPhone Rivals: Sony Hikaru 8MP touchscreen phone rumour

Sticking an eight megapixel camera onto a mobile phone is starting to get fairly commonplace, as manufacturers continue to blur the lines between phones and compact digital cameras.

Creating touchscreen phones to rival the iPhone is also now fairly common, so it wouldn't be surprising if rumours surrounding a Sony Hikaru phone turn out to be reasonably accurate.

As well as the decent camera, it could also sport 8GB of onboard memory and Walkman branding/functions. It's all pretty vague, as rumours usually are. If Sony wants to get in on whatever Christmas gadget spending we might see this year (and it's likely to be tough enough as it is) it had better announce the phone soon.
