Handango inks content deal with Sony Ericsson

Smartphone applications provider Handango announced a worldwide agreement with Sony Ericsson to bring content direct to consumers on all of the device maker's convergence phones, including the Windows Mobile-based Xperia X1 and its UIQ handsets. Handango's InHand clients will offer users a variety of productivity, games, imaging and music apps designed for optimal performance across the Sony Ericsson convergence phone portfolio--the Xperia XI will boast an embedded, Handango-branded Windows Mobile 6.1 InHand client. In addition, Handango will serve as the content provider for Sony Ericsson's mobile web storefront for UIQ devices, and by year's end will offer its InHand mobile client embedded on all UIQ devices.
