Why is it a hasty conclusion? Do a google search, or think back to Oct 2000. Where were Samsung? But with the advent of the A100, A300, T100, S100 et al in quick succession, they have become third best-selling manufacturer in the world. They are second in my market (UK).
You can never say for sure exactly what makes a company successfull and copying someone else's strategy will not guarantee success either.

This is just my opinion. P800 is not a mass market proposition, and will miss the christmas market. Outside of forums like this one, I just don't think the demand for products like P800 is very high. The biggest selling
I don't see why demand for P800 would be less than 7650. P800 also has foot in the same marketsegments as ipaq, palm, sony clie, etc. You never know, because it's the first device e v e r to incorporate these features.

I hope P800 is not a dead end platformwise, so they won't have wasted the time. They could continue improving it and release new versions, smaller, with other keypads with better design, with or without camera.

You're right, the P800 could be just held back to lower costs, that is very true. But the main point I was making was in respose to the guy that said that cost was a major factor.
I said that. Everytime you do something new it costs.

I was trying to get across that the specs I outlined could come in under 700 euros, the expected price of the
Which is a lot.
I totally agree with you that Sony Ericsson should combine platforms and make the same phones for the entire world but with differences. But that process costs alot of money. Inventing and developing new things always costs alot of money. I guess that is why they are still losing money.
