It’s been a long road for the Xperia Pro , but the little sliding QWERTY phone from Sony Ericsson finally appears to be nearing release. After getting manhandled , posing for a few glamor shots , and going up for pre-order , the 900MHz and 2100MHz HSPA friendly handset has, months after its unveiling, glided through the FCC.
