I agree, too. I had an m600i and despite it's being super buggy, I thought it was a really cool device - at the time it was one of the few slim smartphones with a touchscreen and qwerty, and UIQ was much slicker and more visually appealing than Windows Mobile (and iPhone wasn't out yet). If it had had a camera and at least EDGE, I would have kept it.
Then p3i came out and still no EDGE, let alone US-band HSDPA. So for the price there was no way I was going to get one. EDGE is damn slow, but it's okay for checking email and RSS feeds, esp. if you also have WiFi to use when there's an open network.
I'd really love to ditch my iPhone for something that's slim, has a good UI, and a good camera, multimedia capabilities, and a an actual keyboard (the SE dual-rocker QWERTY board is fine by me). Sounds like X1 or P5i - I'd prefer UIQ, but only if it has at least EDGE. And for what I'm sure P5i will cost, it'd better have US-spec HSDPA.
I know the US isn't the main cell phone market in the world - let alone a big market for symbian/UIQ. But SE has said they're going to make a push in North America this year, and AT&T and now T-Mobile are rolling out HSPA in the US at long last. So maybe we'll see a P-series with quad band GSM/EDGE/HSPA ...

I agree with my fellow American posters. No quad-band GSM with EDGE for UIQ devices is pretty pathetic. If the Pnext is released without quadband GSM with EDGE and tri-band HSDPA, I'll be very disappointed.
It's bad enough we in the states have to purchase hi-end SE phones through ebay or 3rd party retailer. We'd at least want the phone to support our networks. It is the largest market in the world, wouldn't proper business sense make you want to cater to it in order to be successful?

I personally don't think we should "expect" anything anymore, however, given that Paris/BeiBei are in EMMA and CeBit is so close (and it's apparently the largest electronics show in the world), it wouldn't hurt to prepare for the possibility that it may make a showing.

Cebit used to be
's venue to announce imaging flagships. i hope to see k850 successor in Cebit. (though k850 is fairly new in the market..)

Sure, but I think its a good idea to keeps discussions on already announced phones to a minimum OR in their respective threads or Big M might lock this.

It's been a big week. I'll see what I can find for next week but all the stuff we were expecting for Barcelona that didn't get launched this week has been moved to the next window, which is CeBit.

Is it possible that the keys on this phones are like on the P910, I mean bad quality (leaky to sweat and loosing the contact)?
90 % of SE today phones have a very critical and not precise and responsive keys!
Sorry!
