Yeah I don't think the Z750i made it to European markets either. The Z750a came out in some markets, but even then I think it sold in very low numbers. I don't think it had HSUPA though.

I like clamshells too, for a change. I just need SE to release a really decent one. The W980i came so close, but didn't quite hit the mark.

i've just like the z610 and z750.

can we blame ?

most of the ppl like the commercial phones(k,t,w) and we cant blame them as these are more "equipped" than others. you know what i mean.

Are we sure this is not a fashion thing? According to my info clamshells are not very popular in general right now - it seems to be sliders and candybars.

Yeah thats true, Clamshells aren't really popular right now, except in the never-changing USA. Sliders are definitely in at the moment.

So it would hardly seem sense to throw money at a form factor that would have a limited chance of selling.

Sliders probably sell many times more than clamshells anyway.

muhammad> You are right, it does not support HSUPA. But I forgot Edge. And on the Canadian site, it is the z750i that is referred to. But I still don't see a difference with the z750a????
I think clamshells are also welcome in some asian countries. I guess it would be too expensive to support it in Europe in view of the expected small number of items sold here. Except mine, I have never seen a z610 here in Belgium, I must admit.

Is like clamshell's and have owned a few. Do prefer them over the slider's as se seem to make the slide mechanisms a bit weak.

Maybe the difference between a Z750i and Z750a is that the Z750a doesn't have a video call camera? Not sure though...

I didn't think of the video call. Anyway, it is stupid to have an almost universal phone with Edge, 3G, HSDPA, UMTS but without a video call cam because it is sold in the US.
In fact I am interested in the phone because I travel all around the world. And with all the frequencies and protocols implemented, the z750 seems to be the phone for me.

True, but it will be hard to find one.
