After seeing the white paper of all three models there is hardly any difference
they have same 800 MHz Qualcomm MSM7225A processor.

Miro has 3.5 screen with 16 million colours [320x480 rsln], 5mp camera while Tipo has 3.2 screen with 262 000 colours, 320 x 480 pixels.

So the mentioned pricing is correct in my opinion.

At least in Miro Sony should have matched or exceeded the features of S.E Xperia Mini 1 ghz proccy & gpu with higher resolution, around 12k would have been gr8 buy.

ok.. So is 16k confirmed news because I also read on some site that its launching around 16k but if you see Sony U its priced around 16500.

Sony ericsson xperia active was around 19500 when I last saw & being its successor I suspect Sony Go to be around 20k +[dual core proc + Dual GPU & ruggedness of active]
