Japan's largest social network Mixi announced that a total of three mobile phones made by Sony Ericsson and Softbank/Nokia have integrated direct access to its mobile version. These are the Cybershot SO905iCS, the Cybershot W61s and the Nokia N95. The Nokia model is delivered in Japan as the SoftBank X02NK.

It was announced that users can upload pictures taken with the Cybershot models directly to their Mixi blogs from the camera menu screen.

The "Share Online" function of the SoftBank/Nokia phone makes it possible to automatically resize pictures to fit into Mixi blogs. They can be then directly sent to the service as well. Moreover, owners of the SoftBank/Nokia model can access Mixi Mobile directly from the standby screen with just one click.
