Sony Ericsson may discontinue its association with HTC for manufacturing of Windows mobile phones and may rope in another Taiwan-based company, Mobinnova. The development is reported by Commercial Times.

The report says that Sony Ericsson plans to increase its range of Windows based mobile phones but henceforth may do the same with Mobinnova. Xperia X1 is reported to be the last device for which Sony Ericsson will be associated with HTC.
