How many people want a high-end

handset??
It is a shame the K900 was a joke; also a severe shame that SE haven't made a high-end device available for christmas, the W900(and S700 before it) were superb handsets, and successful for

.......I guess they made so much profit over the year that they don't need the sales(or they have decided that they just want money, which they can gain selling mid-range phones without the extra effort required to market niche/high-end ones).......
I fear it is already costing them supporters(not that they'll care), tho...........

Well there'll be quite a number of rumoured high end SEs next year. W950 with a camera, Handycam etc. But there'll be a far higher percentage of low-mid end mobiles. I think ths year was to consolidate SE's position int he market.

Aware, SE made it known that it would not announce any more announcements until the New Year as not to hamper the sales of current models. But expect a flood shortly after the New Year. Each month of the the first quarter we should see new phones announced.
January just by itself
February 3GSM

Understandably, @Shaliron; however, please observe - since 2003: P900, SE created high-end, convergence devices(P910/S700 in '04; W900 '05), which at the time of release, were that awesome they pushed the other manufacturers to raise their game considerably(try P900 vs 6600 - so funny, not really a comparison) to compete.......
.........however, now, the other manufacturers have responded to SEs 'quest for excellence'; as you all know, they have some amazing convergance devices themselves - N-Series, Ultra-Series, HTC-TyTN and others........yet, at the same time, SE has cancelled their convergence devices and decided that (non-japanese)SE owners should take 'two bottles into the shower', i.e: a walkman phone to listen to music on, and also a cybershot phone to take pictures with(apart from the P-series, but even that is not the product it was specified to be....yes, I own one)..........
And yet SE Japan have the SO903i - a perfect convergence device with better(also more) features than K800i and W900 put together.......it would have been NO effort for this handset to be marketed around the world(a la 802SE - V/Z800i, or 902i - K800), yet SE deem we're not worthy..........while N93(for example) owners laugh from above, maniacally.........
I just hope

will return to the form that got them where they are today......convergence, not divergence!
@bodeh6, I know this, I also know that SE were 'advised' around 12months ago that they had to produce more mid/low-end handsets to bulk out their range(told off for have too many high-end ones only? Crazy, eh??)........however, doesn't make it right......

Just thought i would put an idea in just seen casino royale again you do see what looks a w900 being used but looks like a flip would be nice to see a flip version of the w900 but with a flip and swivel effect like the old nokia smartphone
