A short update on one of our previous posts regarding a low priced deal for the Sony Ericsson Liveview on Play.com. The retailer has dropped the price of Liveview even further but, for one day only this time round.

On the Play ‘deal of the day’ promotion, the Sony Ericsson Liveview accessory is reduced down to an even cheaper £12.99 with free delivery! At £15 the deal was cheap as chips but, at £12.99 it seems irresistible to anyone who has ever considered buying Liveview as an add-on for their phone.

We’ve heard reports that Sony Ericsson were going to release a Windows Phone 7 Xperia handset but, not much came of the rumors. It seems however, such a phone did exist with the codename Jolie.

A prototype of the handset has been spotted on eBay and is currently at $405 with two days left.

Admittedly, the new Sony Watch which is essentially a next generation Liveview isn’t far off from launching but, seeing the Sony Ericsson Liveview bluetooth display down to just £15 couldn’t be ignored.

We’ve seen the price of the Liveview drop to £18 before through Play.com but, it only stayed at the low price for a couple of days before returning to £30, while other retailers still had the Sony Ericsson Liveview priced at £40-£45. The £15 deal for the Liveview is again available through Play and like last time, it may not last very long so you’ll need to be quick to nab one at this price.

With Sony’s acquisition of Ericsson’s stake complete, the business has been renamed Sony Mobile Communications. Emails have been sent out to customers detailing the change and now the Sony Ericsson website redirects users to SonyMobile.com from SonyEricsson.com.

Finding your way around the website is practically identical to the SonyEricsson website but, we now have the Sony colors, namely blacks and greys, along with the Sony make.believe logo.

If you’ve signed up to receive emails from Sony Ericsson, either through their support website or forums, or through Facebook chances are you may have received an email from them recently offering you so much off an Xperia Arc S or Xperia Ray.
