NO word on P990??I think it was the first and most anticipated question.
Diplomatic and useless answers as ever.
New CEO is no different from old one.

The P990 questions have been directed to the appropriate department. Probably to the people responsible for your 'misery' in the first place. Patience please you'll get your answers.
As for diplomatic and useless answers, some of those questions were a bit rude to be quite frank. No reflection on Mizzle though who had a great idea, copped alot of flack and still saw it through. Well done!

Well, it's good he at least answered some questions. Even if it doesn't say what we really wanted to hear. I think that SE underestimated the questions that would be asked and also is very aware of how few people actually knew of the questions and were awaiting answers. So this was very low priority for them.
The fact that it didn't go so well unfortunately means we won't see this "public interview" thing spread. Which would have been interesting not only for SE, but for companies in general.
On the answers themself, when he says consumers don't want feature phone he quite right. But, I'd add consumers don't want complex features-but there are some advanced features, like Apple's finger touch screen that are very enticing.
Which brings me to the most disappointing answer, the one about innovation. But it seems that they answered better at Barcelona. Innovations is slow but steady. SE(or other mobile manufacturers) don't like to risk. Even Apple, which has tons of fanboys didn't meet their sales goal with their highly innovative product.
Which is more bad news because it means no one will make an iPhone that's done right(only Samsung and LG are even trying, but not good enough). I'm done expecting a SE iPhone(or Nokia for the matter) for at least another year. And Apple will only realease iPhone 2 in the same spirit as the first, so no use.
One small hope for us: G900.

How was any of those questions rude? Care to elaborate?

" Question number 3
Mr. Komiyama
It seems SE has been
so preoccupied (1) with producing low level phones to increasing market share and
you have unacceptable delay to producing high level phones (2) such as N95, iPhone, U600, Prada, Armani and also Adidas phones rivals.
This policy affected your market share growth also. (3) Why don’t you push the consumers to your SE great products as you did it before by producing innovative products?"
This is not a dumb CSR from the local network provider, but the President of a large high profile company owned by 2 multinationals.
Point one: SE's strategy to broaden its portfolio was deliberate not accidental and has succeded in increasing it sales significantly. They don't need our permission to develop new strategies.
Point two: Big assumption here. Who says there is a delay in producing rivals for the aforementioned phones. SE may not even be moving into those areas. Since when do SE follow everyone else?
Point three: Market share shot upwards! Sales rose approx 25% to over 100,000,000. Clearly this person hasn't got a full grasp of the facts, thats why the words "your opinion" appear in the reply.
The questions regarding P990 problems were worse. I don't wish to get into a debate over how SE customers have or haven't been treated and it appears neither did Mr Komiyama.

You're pretty lucky to have spotted a Voda branded K750/W800 in the wild!
When I lost my K700, I went to buy a W800 and after looking at the dummy phone on display, the shop attendant said they had none in stock and none available at the supplier. I bought a V800 instead. Never saw the K750 in a Vodafone shop in Auckland.
I've met several owners of K700, V800, V630, V600, P990, Z600; none with W800 and one with K750 - an imported version.
Wow that's weird, My local Vodafone stores both had K750i dummies with available stock. One of them had a working example of a W800i set up, which I had a quick go on. I've seen a few K750i's around, but they truly are rare here. The W800i seemed slightly more common. My girlfriend's brother bought a W800i from Farmers just last year. It was discontinued and discounted at the time, but it shows they did have it in stock.
In regard to the questions here, I agree with carkitter also. Some of them (the one above in particular) do seem quite rude, and I think that in his replies, you can sense he is offended or regretting giving the opportunity to ask questions. I would regret it too.

I'm glad he did reply as it gives us an insight into the mind that will be steering the ship for the foreseeable future.
