Following hot on the heels of the Android Acer Liquid with the 1 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, it seems that Sony Ericsson is taking a break from Windows Mobile after the XPERIA X1 and the X2 to bring the X10 in Android flavor. The X10, unlike its cousins, will not feature a sliding QWERTY keyboard, and instead will be in a slate form factor like the HTC Pure.

The device is said to have an 8-megapixel camera and a large capacitive touchscreen. The XPERIA X10 was previously known as the X3. Rumors have it that an announcement of the handset will come on November 3, a mere days after the highly anticipated Motorola Droid announcement for Verizon Wireless.
