This is a very good looking render and if it is 90% accurate then I will be impressed with the real thing. My question is, and I don't know if there is an answer, if this will be called the P700 it would appear to be a step down from the P990. So, seeing as how the P-series demise was short lived, does this mean there will be a successor to the P990? I do not own that phone, due to the omission of North American 3G bands, but the reviews I have read seem to be weighted heavily toward the negative. I hope that SE will learn from the P990 and make the necessary improvements to a successor. I'm also hoping that SE will start using the Ericsson U360 chip in all future phones so that those of us on the left side of the pond will have a viable option to WM phones.
Did I mention I miss having a P-phone. I had the P800 and the P910A, but I won't buy another smartphone without 3G so I am stuck with the HTC TyTN right now. Its not bad but I miss the ease of use of UIQ.

One thing confused me, so called P700 it has higher specifications than P990i like 3.2MP camera, shouldn't it be called P1000 or something?

You have to take into account the comparison with current generation technologies and specifications as well.
The Z750 has higher specifications when compared to the Z800 but then it was still called the Z750.

Who said the P700 is to replace the P990i? surely this is the M600i's replacement and we are still to hear of a replacement for the P990i!!

from what I understood, the M series is kept for smartphones without camera (for business users).
The P700 will have a M600 form factor but that doesn't mean SE won't update the P9xx form factor keeping the keyboard flip.

The P700 is more of a M600 with a camera than a P990 without a flip!
we'll have to see where they go with the model numbers and letters.
Besides the M600 at a year old is due for replacement the P990 at just over six months isn't. IMO.

That is exactly what I was getting at. By calling this the P700 SE is acknowledging that it is a lesser phone than the P990. This begs the question of whether SE will release a successor to the P990. Apparently they are holding a number higher than 990, perhaps 1000, for the P990 successor. I don't think they believe that the consumer memory is so poor as to not remember the designation of their "flagship" phone.

But the numbering would also mean that it's worse than the P900 and P800..... while the P700i will have everything the P990i has, in a smaller form factor and with a 3MP camera.
