The new Sony Ericsson lineup is turning into a highly anticipated set of phones. The P5i is one of the more exciting phones that we have to look forward to. A full touchscreen slider that is rumored to feature a 2.8-inch VGA display, 360 MHz CPU, 5 megapixel camera with auto focus and flash, HSDPA and HSUPA connectivity, built-in GPS, built-in Wi-Fi, 160MB ROM and 128MB RAM with microSD and Memory Stick M2 for extra storage and running Symbian 9.3.

The P5i rumors are being confirmed from users on the Esato Board who claim to be currently beta testing the phone.
