The first mobile phone to boast PlayStation 3 compatibility will be available next month, Sony Ericsson has confirmed.

Sony Ericsson's Aino: hits the UK next month

Aino makes use of the PS3’s Remote Play feature to let you control the Sony console and access its media content over a wireless connection.

SE stressed to gaming website CVG that Aino’s release is dependent on “local market timings”, but promised that the first Aino will be released into the UK during early October.

Aino deliveries into the rest of Europe will follow suit, the firm said.

Alas, Aino won't let you play PS3 games remotely on the phone.

on the other hand, what a horrible name, aino, thats something you'd name a cat after!

Bet you it's expensive

Basically, you can use it as a PS3 remote control.

Does it cure cancer?

title is really misleading since you can only use the remote play for media.

It'll probably start out on the expensive side. Nice to know that the ps3 has another feature now though.

A £250 console with a £450 remote

Skype + PSP is better.

You're late. And that's too expensive for me.

no QWERTY
no appealing at all then
