I agree with jojo...

Manila is definately nokia-central, but there a re a $#!tload of T610's popping up everywhere, along with P800 units. But most people who get a T610 sell it soon after becasue of one thing, and one thing alone: TXTing is slower than a 7250. They don't care about all the other features, all people here care about is that the texting is fast.

i feel like SE the "Apple Computer" of the mobile phone world.

Great products....but a small user base...

Plus they are painfully slow at releasing handsets....

Wish they would take a hint from the parent Sony....which seems like releases a new Clie everyweek...

I don't think sony is the parent of Sony-Ericsson. As far as mobile technology is concerned Ericsson is far more expierenced (btw Ericsson is still active as a seperate Mobile tech company, it's just not making handsets)
It's more like an equal-partnership, I do believe that SE works quite indepentently from Sony.

I'm nitty-picking I know

Well one must not forget that SE is a relatively young company. It's still building up, after all only recently they've announced that their sales are going up and they're heading for break-even.
So rushing out new models is not a wise thing to do, they need a couple of hits (like t68i and t610, without them SE could have had an early grave) to work themselves into the market. Once they're in, they can concentrate on expanding their product line.

And another, rather important, fact: being agressive, yes! BUT with caution. I'll explain this: If they just rush out new phones as fast as they can, you'll get the nokia-syndrome (a million different phones, with virtually no difference between them). SE needs to evaluate the market, and come out with a phone targetted correctly. If they release too many different phones, they make it harder to make profit on them (you need enough buyers).
Besides, when SE brings out a new model it's always great value for money, just because they tend to wait and pack a lot of features into one phone instead of releasing several "incomplete" phones. They are being cautious and thorough.
That is what I consider a very consumer-friendly approach, it was like this with Ericsson and I'm glad to see it's remained so with SE.

And what's better to protect Sony's name and rep than great value for money?

Cheers,
Dietbrand

This list is only about how manny phones each company is selling to the stores, not how manny phones actually being sold to people. So we have to wait to the companies realease their statistics about how manny people ho is buying their phones before we can take anny conclusions.

Quote: Don't worry, the T650 will come and sell more than all of Nokia's phones together. Ain't that right, t610 owner?

When i said that I whas just JOKING. You cant take everything someone say serius.
