see the thing is with

is that they dont need 30 phones to be in the market
the t68i is still one of the best spec'd phones on the market and competes with phones in a few price sectors 7210 to 7650 and up
the t300 competes with about 6-7 nokia phones
the p800 has no real competiors yet if you go by spec (maybe 3650 just about)

arent big enough to release 30 phones a month but its products are so good, which means

only need 6 main products to compete with nokias 30 odd range
new phones are due soon maybe not until cebit next year but that isnt too far away.

the P800 is not a mass market tho - there is only going to be about 500,000 of them to start off - i dont think this can make a difference!!!

I wouldnt agree with you on that the first phones where crappy go's, come the t68 and t68i are hardly crappy.

The real winner will be the T300 once it ships in numbers. This is the cheapest MMS and colour phone available, and it will have changeable faceplates, downloadble games
What are you talking about, it is perfectly available?

Cheap phones sell, Nokia's biggest seller this year is the 3310 series because it's either cheap or free. That's the
T200 is becoming a success. Might be the next 3310 - if only it was a bit faster.

Oh yeah, SE is going dooooown. Great analysis, I'm impressed.
And how the hell is Nokia 7250 a better phone? They are not even in the same category. 7250 is a 7210 with a built in camera, whooopi-bleedin-dooo. Considering how unexciting the 7210 was, I'm looking forward to this one. Maybe they can even make it fully MMS compliant before they attach a camera to it.

ur a bit cocky aren't you. 7250 is a class phone even if it doesn't do everything an SE can do because it is one of the boldest designs ever and looks really 'fahionable' if you will. look at the p800 looks good? think not. Yeh they are different leagues but im just making a point about the designs. Nokia will always outsell Sony Ericsson for the time being whether the phone is good or not. Why? Because of the brand that has been built over time, a loyal fan base and the massive range of their product line catering for literally everyone

@dj
1st ly gemini make kakky dj equip. nuff said.
2ndly spot on m8, nokia do so well due to the major thing

lacks - an establishes loyal cust base
how

will overcome remains to be seen, because although they make undoubtedly the better phones, they do not strike the average punter as a better phone than nokias
average punters dont want their phones 2 do it all

is stuck in an almost niche market whichi it needs 2 get out of
i dont think comparing

2 nokia though is wrong as i interpret

's startegy as yeh taking market share but not by trying 2 replace or blow away nokia, by creating its own stable market to dominate
thats my 2 cents

Totally Correct

wont be a major player for some years
you cant expect them to be market leaders with one good product can you?

Guysssss... this thread makes good reading - some strong opinions too.
As someone previously mentioned, the p800 will not be a mass market phone. - majority of people wanting a small pocket phone packed with features. It would be interesting to know from a profit point of view if a basic phone sold in great numbers at a fairly low cost actually makes more profit than a high spec phone sold in much fewer numbers at a high price?
My guess is that

would rely on more basic spec phones sold in big numbers for survival.

The P800 is all very well, and will be pitched against the (successful - hard though it is to believe) Nokia 7650.
Hard to believe?? All the people whom I've shown 7650 have absolutely fallen in love with it after they've used it a while... Easy to use and navigate - big colorful screen etc. The UI is really good, really it is

. Maybe it is because most of those people have been Nokia owners and the UI logic is pretty close to the simpler phones as well.
P800 is not a mass market phone, touchscreens wont get "Joe Sixpack" to buy it. Two handed usage is a big no-no on non-techy market segment... It will most likely sell well on normal PDA user segment but that is much much smaller than the "Joe Sixpack" market. Just look at the PDA shipment figures from last quartal...
