Rogers Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro coming "later" this year

Rogers just announced via twitter, of course, that they will carry the Sony X10 Mini Pro. They don’t give a date, but they state that it will launch later in the year. Great to know that it came straight from the carrier and not just someone speculating. The mini pro is similar to the X10 mini (pictured) that was recently launched, but has a much needed slide-out QWERTY keyboard, 2.5-inch touchscreen QVGA display, from what we hear it will come with OS 2.1 when it officially becomes available, WiFi, Bluetooth, 5 megapixel camera with auto-focus and video capabilities, GPS, 3.5mm audio jack. No prices have been announced, but the rumor is that a 3 year contract gets you the phone for $29.99.
