It's a good thing atleast some of us focus on the good things, and not the bad things! And I fully agree with getting Satio if one is that bothered by the media-touch.
If there weren't people like us actually thinking SE had something going on and buying there products then they might have been in a hole. But nah I will never give up on them. You might others might but me never.

There is just something in
that attracts me. Easy to use and mod. Decent build quality. (I like to drop things every now and then) and good design. For Aino its that big screen and the blue ribbon.

I honestly can't remember the last time I entered the camera app on any of my phones through the menu, I doubt most people do either... I just press n hold the cam button, which is much faster anyway. So I don't get the big deal about this, I guess it would've been better if Aino had a shutter...
Actually, the Aino doesn't need the user to go to the menu for camera use, at all. Touch the icon in the multimedia menu and one is good to go. One of the youtube videos showed this. I think it was the CNET one. Not sure.
It'd be good for SE to remove the camera and the media icons from the main menu so that people don't get confused and pass incorrect verdicts.
In that case,great stuff !

I'm pretty sure A LOT of people would actually like this phone if SE would actually make the phone full touch. I'm pretty sure there are many people would love using the phone closed for basic things. They should've made it more like the UltraTouch, then it would really get me to like the phone. It just looks like SE did a half-assed job with the touchscreen on this phone, everything else is great, with the inclusion of the desk stand and the BT, but the lack of touchscreen support for the rest of the phone, it kills it for me. This would actually be a great dumbphone if touch was implemented throughout the phone and having a virtual QWERTY would make it a lot more appealing.

For the last ffs they weren't doing things half assed. They were probably trying to see what the respone to such a Japanese style phone in technology will be and if it will sell well. As we can see too many people are touch screen trolls so it isn't going to go anywhere with sales.

You act like all Japanese touchscreen phones are limited like this, they're not.
The touchscreen on that is implemented throughout the phone.
That one is not limited like the Aino as well.
Those are only some examples of the touchscreen phones that are designed the same, yet their touchscreens are fully functional throughout the phone. And also, SEJ have yet to make a touchscreen phone in Japan yet, and if they released this over there, I doubt it'd sell as well as similar phones from SoftBank, Docomo, or KDDI.
If you do know of a phone that is like the Aino from Japan, you're welcomed to prove me wrong.

While not all aren't limited some are.

And the question continues to be - why?
I see no sense in this design at all, and I really couldn't care less if it's big in Japan (which it apparently isn't anyway). If you have a big screen which is touch-enabled and you're asking the user to use that screen to interact with the phone on some levels, it's nonsensical to prevent them from doing the same elsewhere. Why should the user have to switch between touching the screen in one menu and not in the next? It's like using your mouse to point and click on your PC one minute, and then having to drop down into DOS just to read an email. Silly.
For all the justifications given here, in reality this is just a poor concept, and smacks of unfinished software and under-resourced R&D. All the people trying to defend this would be the first to laugh at any other company trying to push such a poorly considered UI.
