I only consider UIQ is a superior and more elegant UI, and if SE was not run by monkeys they coud create superior devices. However UIQ is history now, so i might consider get one of these. SE is going down from what i see...if they are going to use s60, then to hell with them, i will use the original (Nokia)
LOL! Of course UIQ GUI is more superior in terms of usability, menu arrangements, etc - save the icons look like they belong on an BE-OS. UIQ has had a LONG time to mature, and quite frankly those in charge of it dropped the ball a LONG long time ago ... keeping all manufacturers at GPRS for years and 3G for about 2yrs if that (EDGE was always ignored).
UIQ devices being superior to what S60 Nokia offered?! I want 5 of what you're on for Friday night! S60 has progressed to not only 3G & HSDPA faster than UIQ, but also supporting PBX and UMA, WiFi, and DLNA as firsts as well. Even the range of themes was less limiting. Devices had much better range and every year fit more and more target markets. Heck you're even considering one and praising Nokia ... something a first for even you Ares; I'm shocked but happy to see it.
All in All ... SonyEricsson couldn't have kept UIQ alive on their own. Motorola truely wasn't in to it with its full heart. They never are. Remember, Motorola screwed Sendo before and then bought out their development team and they had no better places to go before SE purchased UIQ. Now even SE is considering Andriod : something I think they should abandon, since Motorola is going to screw them again there. Andriod has a LONG time to progress in the handheld market and they're learning things from Apple (mobile store, just like RIM just announced one of their own and for providers) but Motorola has MUCH more experience with Linux in their developers than with UIQ/or SE's dev's.
Just remember Motorola's experience with Linux+Java (MotoMAGX, and previous iterations) along with their dual personality alliance with Linux Mobile Alliance & Andriod.

Hi all,
Well sorry but i really am amazed that anyone seriously thinks a Guitar Plectrum is meant to be used as a stylus on a device. The 5800 has a normal stylus and the option to use your fingers for input the Guitar Plectrum is so you can play Guitar Hero on your device as this will be one of the games available for it.
Seriously a Guitar Plectrum for a stylus just what are you guys smoking!!! how could that possibly be right or make any sense?

I like the look of this device I was keen on the X1 but I really have questions as to its ability to perform and I am not that keen on WM.
But this is Symbian and it looks like it might meet my requirements, as I only caught onto this thing yesterday

does anyone know when it is due for release in the UK?

Hi ares
I am coming to the same conclusion, as you know I have been highly critical of

's approach to SW quality control & build quality especially since the p990i charade.
To then find that they have effectively allowed UIQ to die before it reached its pinnacle and the recent X1, is evidence to me that Sony Ericsson are no longer committed to developing high end products and just want to have a offering of some kind.
This device however seems to encompass all of the things that made the P800 great, fresh, new, exciting & simple without costing the earth it is the ONLY device out there at present that actually excites me enough to consider a SIM free purchase, and from what I have read that will not break the bank either!
I would love to know when this device will be available in the UK or Europe
