I wish, and I HOPE it will happen, it's just SE are more of a profit driven company than they were in the K750 days. They don't care about producing good phones anymore. Their K850 is seriously flawed.

the best of is yet to come.. just have some faith saying k850 is seriously flawed when the phone hasn't been released yet is very very strawberry premature.

well we are 3 years later and not much has changed. Nothing positive actually.

their quality is still not good, when their phones come out they need to wait months for updates to make them equal to the competitors, but by that time new high end phones hit the market.
SE's is way behind on AMOLED. They still don't put AF on all their cam phones, battery life still needs to improve.
Design is getting more boring every year, no soul.
No divx/xvid playback
More phones need xeon flash
Free GPS soloution like nokia is doing
FM radio without needing to connect the earphones
Focus on Android, forget symbian
Bluetooth 4.0 should be used in the phones that they recenly annouched
new bluetooth watches with 4.0
They should link the Belgian market with that of the Netherlands instead of France.
More high end phones, less none smartphone mid level ones.
flash light in all their low end phones
better marketing campaign
new management

Sony Ericsson future ? I think they are slowly, but steadyly going toward bancruptcy. I've been their customers for many years. Recently purchased Xperia X2 and I can confirm that their build quality is decreased significantly + software is bugy and using handset is a real pain. It also lacks rSAP Bluetooth profile which mean it can't pair with all modern build in car audio hands free systems ... In the same time there are a lot of other producers on the market which are eating Sony Ericsson market share as they offer higher quality handsets on much lower prices. Therefore I believe their days on the market are numbered...

Sony going bankrupt? I don't think so. Recently their profits were back up going in the right direction & their phones have slowly become better & more reliable finally putting behind them their disaster days from the K850i onwards. I have not had any problems with my Elm & it's camera is great. The X10,Aino & apparently the Elm are selling well. I spoke with O2 & they said the Elm had sold out at one point. So no I don't think Sony will go bankrupt but if anything the more vulnerable side is Ericsson cos they don't have the same reputation or world wide sales as Sony does. If & it's an if Sony Ericsson went their seperate ways both would suffer losses but Ericsson would more than likely come out worse than Sony. I thought this at one point that they might not last but they are surviving the recession so far. As for technology yes Sony Ericsson were a bit slow on catching up with certain things but things have & are changing.

Seeing the success of x10 and vivaz, i dont think that they are going towards bankruptcy.
They have changed. With their products blog, they are interacting with the world now compared to the past where there was absolutely no way to communicate with SE. Adding additional features on updates is another good thing they are doing...like HD video recording for x10.
Earlier, SE phones used to have outdated hardware in terms of CPU...eg P1i/g700/g900. But now, that has changed. Vivaz is still the most powerful symbian phone in the market and x10 is on par with the best. They have moved from fastport to micro usb and 3.5mm jack.
With x10 mini/mini pro, vivaz pro just around the corner, they are heading towards the right path of success. It'll take time for SE to get back its reputation but the important thing is that they are working hard for it.

Another main gripe about is their pricing policy , they used to price their phones very high but now elm is rightly priced....

hope they can x10 mini / x10 mini pro price it well ....
