Hey,
What do you guys think will be 007's new handset in 'Quantum of Solace'?
After all, we have seen Ericsson/Sony Ericsson products in the movies ever since Tomorrow never dies!
in casino royale, k800 was 'the' james bond phone. At that time,
was pushing the advertisement of k800 (since k800 was the 1st cybershot)
i have two guesses: the 'it' phone of Bond can be C905 (for this year
is regaining the cybershot glory) or xperia (the 1st WM
high end device)

This new phone, to me, precisely highlights whats currently wrong with SE. SE is still the best manufacturer for overall product quality in my opinion. But what other than that is there to make us buy an SE phone? They used to have this wow factor about them. Like my old K700i, first cameraphone with passable VGA stills, K750i, great 2 MPx stills, way ahead of the competition, W800i, first real music-minded phone, untouchable in terms of playback capabilites at the time, and it still had a cam like the K750i. In my opinion the best all rounder at the time. Thats my point. More than anything, I chose SE because not only were they ahead of the competition, but they did it with style and they were innovators.
I see no innovation at all anymore in the majority of SE handsets. X1 is all thats come around lately that really does bring something new to the table. That, and I suppose the C905 which has Wifi in it now. But the cam brings little new compared to the K850, nothing you will actually use, nothing necessary. The cam itself, as a step up representing a year's progress, is fairly poor without optical zoom. Thats not innovation, so its not worth my money. SE need something more revolutionary than rehashed solutions, and they need it fast.
Theyre missing the point about quality and not quantity. They can release 1000 phones a year if they feel like it, but if I dont see anything good in any of them, then all that choice is for nothing. N95/N96, iphone/iphone 3G are selling/will sell like hot cakes, and theres nothing from SE to compete directly with either one. They arent going to become a top 3 manufacturer without stepping up to the competition. Their lack of profits agrees with me.

Is that really going to be called a T610 ??? Its a nice phone but i don't think SE should badge it as a T610.Some people around here where i live still use the original T610.

I doubt it will have the same name. And its hardly even a T610i revival. Not in spirit, not in spec, not even in looks - other than colour scheme. It will probably be a T series, but not T610i.

Nah, new naming structure... I'd say T700.

Another aspect of the design of the T610 was that to the untrained eye the phone looked, well sort of boxy. However if you examine the lines of the T610, its very hard to find a single straignt line in the design itself, all the lines on the T610 are a very subtle curve.
There doesn't seem to be any of that in the new phone but still it looks good I suppose, the keypad isn't unique to the design but it could have been better. The Photoshoppers on here could have conjured up some interesting designs.

That is disappointing! I expected better than this, too square and those W890 keys are also not nice. This was supposed to be a successor to the legend that was the T610 not a confused W890.

Yeah, I think I'm going to give a proper T610i revival photoshop a go tomorrow. Should be fun.
Also, I'm not so sure this is supposed to be a T610i revival. Mizzle suggested it is one, but we have to wait and see what
themselves call it before we can truly judge it for what it apparently is.
