you know japanese phones are not slim either.......
but i don't see it as a thick phone, yeah sure thicker than a t100 but not thicker than phones with the same features.....
anyway i like the se design especially s700 but i guess you just have to see it in realy life, material is very important when you have it in your hands..... you can't really se how the keypad looks from this pics so i think we just have to wait a litlle before calling them thick or similar....

Further rummaging in the K700 gave more surprises. Apart from new mini-features like the useful speed dial, It was a pleasant surprise that Sony Ericsson didn't include the support for the Bluetooth HID profile in vain; they've used it to make the phones work as Bluetooth remote controllers of computer applications! Here's an extract from the whitepaper:
By using the Bluetooth HID Profile v1.0, the phone is able to act as a HID device. This means that when connected to a computer, the phone looks like a combined keyboard and mouse. By assigning specific combinations of computer keyboard key presses to each key on the phone keypad, the user can use the phone as a remote control device for computer applications.The phone keypad is configured for configured for control of a certain computer application through a special type of HID confíguration file consisting of an XML file for the keypad and an image for the display. HID configuration files can be dowloaded into the phone using the normal file transfer mechanisms. Users can even modify the files themselves on their computers. A few configuration files are pre-loaded in the phone that enables the user to navigate on a computer desktop, control presentations and media players.
Having explored all menus of the K700, the Z1010's firmware didn't have anything more especially interesting, but on the other hand it was impossible not to be attracted by the look and feel of this phone. It certainly is a big phone, but it is so well built (way better than any other SE) and the materials give a feeling of such a high quality that you really want to own one.

i guess you have seen the s700 right? now my question is:
where's the input for the earphones? if there isn't any does that means that we have to use the clumsy se conennectors?

well well! it's finally updated with the report of the last day:
http://www.clubsonyericsson.com/en/featured_cebit04day4.shtml
i hope you have enjoyed it. it's the record compilation of photos in the site
main texts:
Such is the extension of the internal menus of the K700 that after four days of intensive sessions using the phone, it feels like it has literally endless possibilities of usage; endless menus and submenus. But don't mistake "endless" with "confusing mess": all actions and options can be easily found in coherent places, a bit more intuitively than before. Perhaps it's just the result of implementing all those missing little features we'd been waiting for since we got used to the T610 interface, especially the new powerful File Manager with the possibility of creating your own custom folders. One of the better redesigned menus is the options menu while viewing a photo. Apart from the flashy new "Remote screen" and "Slideshow" options, a new submenu called "Use" now contains several ways of using the selected image IN the phone; compared to the traditional "Send" menu full of ways of sending the selected image TO another place. To top it all, it's more than probable that all this stuff is also available in the interface clones of the S700 and Z1010.
The T105 is finally coming to the European market. If you recall, it is just a T100 with different external colors (Steel Silver and Vibrant Turquoise) and materials, making the phone look a little bit more exclusive, even luxurious. The unit shown in the CeBIT was the silver one, and as you can see in the photos, it clearly is better looking than the T100's. The materials are still plastic, but of a better quality.
We all already know that the Z200 is a very special low range phone (similar to a T310 feature-wise) without any outstanding technological wonder but with a very exclusive styling; a phone with a very clear target group.
It's difficult to get used to Nokia's very own way of innovating. The latest additions to their odd looking phones portfolio are the 7700 and the 7600. As it has happened in the past, the design isn't exactly justified by the functionality, but they will certainly earn fans. At least I do find them more attractive than that old 3650 thing. The 9500 Communicator, on the other hand, sticks to the traditional form factor (and size) of Nokia's communicators, and adds a bit of stylish design.
One of the biggest booths of all CeBIT was of course Sony's. It was far away from Sony Ericsson's and didn't show anything related to mobile phones but I thought it would be interesting to all Sony Ericsson fans to see some cool stuff from the mother company.
And last but not least, a couple of videos of the two Japaneese wonders the S700 is based on: the SO505i and the SO505iS. Both prove how the interfaces of phones in that country are much more powerful and flashy than in the West. In the first one you can see how Themes are previewed in real time and in the second... well... it speaks for itself: the menus of the "iS" make all Mac OS X visual effects look lame.
