Sony’s ‘magic’ smartphone lets you navigate without touching the screen

Forget touch screens. You don’t even need to caress the screen of Sony’s “magical” smartphone to interact with it — just hover your finger over the screen to navigate through the menus.

“Xperia sola comes with the power of Sony and a sense of magic with floating touch, giving consumers a fun new way to browse the Web and latest technology to show off,” said Calum MacDougall, head of Xperia marketing for Sony Mobile Communications.
