I think Sony's vast experience in consumer electronics marketing has made a difference. Boba swears that most of the

handsets, since the T610, have been more Sony influenced than Ericsson.

splitting now would be unwize.
SE needs to live on and ericsson must continue its work on mobile platforms, symbian and UIQ.
if ericsson would separate from those things the market would be wide open for windows OS.
many people see nokia as the big rival, i don't
nokia has been teaming with ericsson for years in terms of networks, development, new standards and much more.
how the future looks nobody can predict that.
we can only gues that global demand for cell phones will rize, competition will get harder.
and maby we can expect something very special from symbian in a year or 2.

New info bumperama bump!
Ericsson goes to war with Samsung
To quote from this article: -
In the past two years it has greatly expanded its activities in technology licensing, including the marketing of reference platforms to Sony Ericsson rivals, and while its joint venture focuses on the high end of the market - and so is less sensitive to royalty costs than the phonemakers chasing emerging economies -
there is also a real option for Ericsson to quit handsets altogether, and one that we would expect it to take up in the next few years.
More rumblings on a go it alone strategy for Sony.
I want to know if the Ericsson name would be ditched from the

name or will there be a total rebranding if this happened.

Ericsson will never make fones again, actually not on their own. Any brand should be happy to cooperate with the swedish giant, just as they showed sony how to make real fones instead of an 'ufo' - unidentified fone object'

Why would Sony want to start from scratch all over again.It failed once trying to make its own handsets so it merged with Ericsson.All Sony now has to do is give branding like 'walkman' and 'cybershot' to Ericsson phones and reap the profits!
Only reason why Ericsson would try to pull out is because its not getting as much share as it would like to for all the R&D its putting in.
Or maybe just maybe all these rumors are just a ploy to expand :se 's market base.
