You will already have seen us publish a picture of the Sony Ericsson P5 Paris here and here but news pics and a few details have emerged.

This leaked photo gives us a hint at the sliders standard 12 key numeric Sure-Type like pad, differing from earlier suspicions that a full QWERTY would be featured.

Will Sony Ericsson come out and confirm the existence of the phone? Is it all a big charade? We’ll keep you up to date on any announcements as they come to hand.
