I doubt it. As @tai020381 pointed out, even though he was still talking about CMOS sensors, Sony Ericsson will most likely not release any CCD-based camera phones. If they were to release a Cyber-shot camera phone using the same 5MP CCD module Sony delivered to i-mobile (902) or maybe even a newer generation of this module, there would be significant risk of these camera phones hurting Sony's lower-end digicam sales.
I mean, look at the samples @SaliH posted! Would you still be interested in a point-and-shoot camera if your phone could take pictures like these?
Case in point: consider the following two 640x480 crops of 3MP photos shown at 100 percent scale from two CCD-based cameras; one digicam and one camera phone. Can you tell which one came from a camera and which one from a camera phone?

the thing is that my k810i takes similar daylights pics then i-mobile 902, (its actaully true), BUT I-MOBILE 902 takes awesome night-pics/lowlight-pics (no doubt about that).
i "know" that i-mobile dosent take much better pics like this, (k810i is a awesome daylight-pics-phone). but the Night-pics, wooaaah, is awesome from i-mobile 902.

Guys, my i-mobile 902, finally came yesterday, and everything is ok, I got two batteries, sony headphones with remote, TV cable, 1 GB microSD card, 3.5 mm adapter, custom headphones that look a lot like HPM-70 & USB cable with it. But strange thing happened, when I turned my 902 on, I felt so nostalgic over K750i. I mean I really miss my K750i now, that I think I'm gonna buy another one once again, or mybee K800i. I miss those little things in SE menu. Strange feeling, when I sold my K750i to my friend's sister last night, I was so sad.
This probably means, that everything is not in the camera. SE please make a CCD phone, it doesn't matter how many MP, at least 2 MP!!!!
p.s. I'm gonna write my review of 902 soon!

The K810i photos look good when viewed at a small scale on a monitor. But what is the largest size you tried printing the photos at?

To each his own, but I agree with you. You really need to want a very good camera to accept the i-mobile 902. The rest of the phone is like a slow low-budget copy of the K750i. For me, the camera is the most important thing in a camera phone and the rest is secondary.
