I think there might be some validity to his point, actually. It might also be a little inflammatory, but really, compared to all of the other phone manufacturers (Apple included now) how much innovation has Sony Ericsson added/introduced into it's porfolio this year? Honestly?.... or, are a majority of all of the new Sony Ericsson phones introduced this year, for the most part, essentially the same phone only in a slightly different form factors with only incrimental upgrades? Is the Symbian v 9.1 OS with UIQ 3 used in Sony's smartphones any different now from what it was in the P990 or M600? How much has the UI changed in all of that time (a good portion of the reviewers who have recently reviewed Sony's P1 have slammed it as of late, CNET being the latest no doubt!!!)? P1 owners want to field this one?... What about all of the K series Cybershots introduced? K800, K810, and K770? How many 3MP mid range candy bar style cybershots do we really need? What about the Walkman line? They haven't really changed all that much from one handset to the next, unless you count the addition of slider phones to Sony's porfolio as some kind of cutting edge developement.... The new T series?.... A really good phone, but still standard fare from Sony, and which consiquently takes major design ques from Sony's super succesful T610 (not that I can blame them though.)! Can we now expect Sony Ericsson to go Motorola's route, basing all of it's future designs on one super successful phone design without much innovation to the hardware? Will the T-series go the route of almost all of Motorola's design choices (or lack there of) and it's super successful Razor (blechhh!)?... What about Sony's unwillingess to let go of it's proprietary M2 memory format?... Why do this to us Sony?... It cost more than the INDUSTRY STANDARD, which EVERY OTHER PHONE MANUFACTURER USES!.... GRRRR.... Don't get me wrong, I applaud Sony's decision to include SD Micro card support in the K850i, finally, but if you ask me it's too little too late! Why not all across the line? Why only in the K850i?.... One step forward, only to take one step back I tell you!... When was the last time Sony did you a favor?... I love my walkman phone (I own a W850i, and am holding my baited breath until the W960i reviews start coming in before I make my next major cell phone purchase..) as much as any other poster on this forum, but honestly phones like the iphone and N95 8GB are awfully tempting. I just don't seem to understand people's blind allegiance to a CORPORATION (do you honestly think Sony Ericsson cares about you all, the way you all do about Sony Ericsson, when you rush to defend Sony Ericsson and their devices?!? Anyone remember the recent P990, M600, and W950 fiasco?!?... What about Sony's inability to make a joystick that'll last more than a few months? I owned a K800i before my W850i, and started having issues with it's joystick only after a few months!
... Anyone get their phones fixed on that? Why do people on this forum continue to buy Sony Ericsson's devices after bitching and moaning so much about the last device they owned?...) !... How many times are you going to let someone slap you in the face before you get sick of it?
Ok, sorry, I'm done. "Stepping off of my soap box now"....
I think the intention of the topic starter (a huge Sony ericsson fan from the sound of it) was to express was his disatisfaction and disappointment with Sony Ericsson's 2007 portfolio and their "safe" approach, as of late, to phone design and innovation. How does Sony Ericsson honestly hope to stay in contention with all of the other major phone manufacturers by dragging their feet? I think this quote that I read in Stephen Fry's blog on smartphones recently, best describes Sony Ericsson's design ethic: 'The P1i is what happens when “oh, that’ll do” becomes the corporate motto.' You really want Sony Ericsson to change? Take your money elsewhere, that'll get Sony Ericsson's attention and some real innovation.

Basically to sum it up.
Total number of truly high-end phones released : ZERO.

Sorry everyone, but there's no innovation in that list that I, a long time user of Ericsson and SE products can be proud of. Being a loyal SE consumer myself, I fully understand arunvc's frustation.
