Sony Ericsson Conceptualizes Phone with Full-sized USB port

Yep, you heard it right. Pictures of a new concept phone from Sony Ericsson show a phone that features a type-A receptacle USB port. What does this mean for you? Well to start you can use transfer files to your phone without the use of your computer by simply plugging in your flash drive. Other than that, not much seems to be known at this time. After seeing this it makes me wonder why someone didn’t think of it sooner.

Since this is only a concept design there is no telling what will happen… it might just be scrapped all together. Speculatively speaking, this could open up a lot of different options for accessories for phones and maybe if some of the manufacturers use their head for something besides keeping their ears apart could become very useful, very quickly.
