Sony Ericsson Entertainment Unlimited Phones Aino and Satio get firmware upgrades making them less buggy and more effiicient and user-friendly. As we know, the two phones were going headlong down all thanks to Aino’s buggy touchscreen and Satio’s irredeemable software bugs.

Sony Ericsson, in a bid to save the phones from swooshing down the alleys, has gone a step further and upgraded the firmwares. The new firmware for Aino™, version – R7AA071 is already available for updating in SEUS.

Satio too, gets an update.

Major software problems have apparently hit the latest gaming phone, a PSP substitute from Sony Ericsson, Aino. A large number of UK customers have reported problems regarding touchscreen interface of the model. SE has admitted “issues” regarding the phone. This comes just few days after its another much hyped high-end handset Satio was pulled off from the markets after high returns at Carphone Warehouse and Phones 4u saw both retailers halt Satio sales.

“Aino has sold in limited numbers in the UK, so this issue affects only a very small number of customers,” says a Sony Ericsson representative.

Aino and Satio are Sony Ericsson’s key products for the final quarter,” said analyst Geoff Blaber from British consultancy CCS Insight.

Aino and Satio will both launch around the 7 of October. SE has issued a “save the date” press invite with “To celebrate the retail launch of Sony Ericsson’s hotly anticipated Satio and Aino handsets” in the memo.

Sony Ericsson has delayed the release of its latest handsets, the ‘mega-functional’ Satio and the PSP console replica Aino(in functions of course!) Sony Ericsson Aino. Reasons are unknown.

The newest release dates are-
