Well for us devotees of SE the news of a touch walkman and Reese out this year is good enough no? I mean high specced enough and SE will make us very picky for phone choosing.

Anything like a P1 among those?

I doubt the touch Walkman will be out this year, it would clash with Aino. What I mean is that the W995 and Aino will struggle next to any touch enabled devices which is what Nokia focus on now. With the 5530 and the 5800 replacement, they have the main bases covered. Its smart from Nokia regardless of whether the phones are good or not.
@ Dups!
I doubt we will see a P1i qwerty again which is good for some and bad for others. Full qwerty is the way to go now actually.

Oh damn. But regardless or not its still the S60 platform and I am sorry early or not it cannot go up against the A200.

What do you think the future of the company will look like (maybe not the near future...)? You sound like there are nice phones coming up but that they are always a step behind the competitors. Will it ever change?

Thanks.
I was really hoping even though I knew chances were really slim or non-existent. I guess Blackberry is my next phone even though they don't have a QWERTY keypad touchscreen phone.
I just can't see myself with a complete touch phone, I need a physical QWERTY keypad.

Ahem. Are you serious? Current versions of both (not including S60 5th Edition)??
OK ... lets see. More than 5 MP3 players and on-board tag editing.
* multiple true and full applications with a LOT of RAM to run them simultaneously.
- Sure you can do basic email & IM on A200; but you CANNOT run RSA SecureID software token for secure corporate email, intranet, web-based application support. Also you cannot run a true full fledged Bloomberg Anywhere application on A200. Support for IBM Lotus Notes email via Traveler is only on S60 & WM6.1 & supposedly iPhone (advertised but never fully delivered); A200 cannot do this. Email searching support with folders, contacts & pictures, Calendar invites, rejections, etc.
* Stock trading applications; are slim but there are a few older ones. I have seen none on A200.
* SSH/TLS and remote desktop applications. I see none on A200.
Don't get me wrong ... when I was younger A100/A200 served me well and its a very MATURE feature phone platform. But for

in these times and for the foreseeable future it hardly serves any purpose in Mid-range phone for any market except for India, Phillipeans, Indonesia, South Africa and possibly the younger crowd in Russia ... ONLY due to the currency exchange and medium income range for users in those nations for ages 16-25. It has nothing to do with intelligence or experience for those workforces as if they came to North/south america they'd earn over 5x as much for the same skill set. A200 is just not ready for the smartphone global onslaught already happening.
What SE DOES have going for it that other companies are trying for ... is familarity and the ability to go vertical.
A200's layout is capable of going universale from the low end to the high end premium smartphones. We already saw A100 familiarity in the P800 and even A200 familiarity in the P1i. vertical scalability and familiarity for users going from low end to the high-end during their cellphone acquisitions. SE already has services like PlayNow ...but its LONG overdue to support USA, Canada, Mexico and south america. This is where SE can make revenue and profits in these markets even with existing phones. Only Nokia & Apple have Music Store, Application Store, and Movie (APPLE only) storefront for users to indulge in. Why is SE waisting this incredible potential in markets where sales can significantly increase the bottom line?!
