Well they still are a small company, if you look at there market share compared to Nokia. But then if you look at HTC market share in Asia remember HTC made these devices they may have been branded Imate or Dopod but they still from HTC...so really HTC is coming on strong.
S.E I really dont know which route they taking, I did love the M600 a little buggy for liking but none the less still good.
I mean things like HSDPA are being announced left right and centre and SE has not even developed a data card that supports it (considering ericsson is installing vodafone with HSDPA equipment)
So to be honest I think its a love hate relationship and the lack of intertorribility between the two companies Sony and Ericsson could be there down fall.

not because, you didn't knew about HTC until the TyTn came out, what makes you think that SE are bigger than them. Just incase you didnt know, all those phone from Palm, like the Treo, HTC is responsible for them, only thing Palm did was to load them with there OS, and its name, but it is HTC who makes them. and as someone said above...... the same thing goes for the Imate, Dopod, SPV XXXXX, Cingular 8125.. and more.
So you probably should research stuff, before u start talking.

it saddens me deeply to see the loyalties of so called sonyericsson fans...1 unstable phone, namely the p990i & people start jumping on to the htc bandwagon...if htc is bigger than sonyericsson then i wonder what all u htc afficionados are doin' here on esato which is a pre-dominantly sonyericsson forum???
as for nokia's market shares...nokia makes easy phones...easy to buy & easy to comprehend...in simpler words cheap phones for dummies.

now trying my 3rd tytn. took my 2nd to mallorca and it was useless, screen constantly a half inch out, everything kept crashing. had the latest for 24 hours and for the 1st time i'm impressed! Keyboard works fine, screen has needed re-alignment only once in 24 hrs. Camera app hasn't crashed yet although i haven't pushed it yet. At long last i could start to enjoy this phone.
Touch wood.
I still had the problem with windows media "losing" my 1gb card but the solution on this thread to delete the MSMETADATA file from the card works a treat - thanks for the tip, this was very frustrating.
As an added bonus Orange sent me a complete boxed replacement this time and only asked for the faulty handset in return so I got a spare battery, case, stylus, charger etc.

HTC didn't market under it's own brand name before is because it did not have the funds and insurance to do so, it made the phones as orders for PAYING companies, it had the technology but not the marketshare to back it up, now after working for other companies for so long it finally has enough cash to go solo,
as for 'loyal customers' I am a loyal customer, does that mean I will jump off of a ledge for sony ericsson, erm no
it's not just one phone, the k750 drove me crazy for about half a year to a year till it finally got... sort of stable, then the k800 was a dissapointment for some issues so I decided to get the flagship phone, which left me 1 year waiting for it (sadly) and then after it did appear (mind you it's not officialy launched everywhere) has more bugs than any s.e. phone ever, and the only things it seems to do out of the box is turn on.
I don't want to spend another year beta testing it after the year I wasted waiting for it. When I pay the top price for a phone I want it to work.
I still love s.e. and if their next phone is good I will buy it and support it, but if I buy they're phone is bad and I buy it without question it will only hurt the company and let the idiots running the show get away with more crap like this.

I don't understand why the P 990 has so many problems. I have a M600i and I keep congratulating myself for buying this one instead on the P 990i. 3 weeks ago when I bought the M600i, no P 990 was available. Damn, they have the same OS, the same hardware, why so many problems with the P 990i while my M600i crashed only once and has some minor bugs ( e.g when receiving a pic thru BT, I can't see it, I have to edit it first, then save it).

From my own point of view (and as a TyTN owner and former M600i owner) I don't think the P990i does have too many major problems right now. The last firmware update fixed most of the major stuff. There are of course still memory management issues, but the M600i does suffer from these too - the difference is that due to the M600i being a less complex device with only one mode of use, no camera and no wifi it has more RAM at startup than the P990i meaning its own RAM issues are less noticeable.
To be completely honest (and despite my TyTN being fine) I am actually more concerned by HTC's apparent production QC problems (screen alignment, dodgy keyboards, and weak slide mechansims) than the P990i software issues.
At least the software issues are easier to fix.

that's what insurance is for
I sent back my tytn that had a few 'hard to press keys' and now I got back a device that is has no issues
to be fair it's not the p990 hardware that is screwing it, it's uiq3, they should've stuck to uiq2 until they got a decent os, they could've just updated the eye candy.

well, my luck didn't last. went out in the sun today and pushed the new tytn's camera app - it failed. tytn owners, take a few pics on the 2mp setting on a sunny day with plenty on detail ie not just sea and sky, all 3 of my tytns have crashed 6 times out of 10 needing a restart to open the camera app again.
