just got this from CNN

Products in the pipeline

Flint said the group would focus on producing more phones with cameras and extending the Walkman line. He told Reuters new product announcements would come soon, particularly around the time of a big telecoms conference in Barcelona in March.

Further out, he saw television on mobile phones becoming popular in two years or so. "It will be 2007 or 2008," he said.

Issues to be solved were how to package TV for phones, such as making edited highlights or shorter versions of popular shows.

He said he aimed to make mobile TV as familiar as possible. "On camera phones we spent a lot of time on how to replace the experience of film camera on mobile phones," he added.

Sony Ericsson's fifth place in the market leaves it behind South Korea's LG Electronics and Samsung, U.S. group Motorola and market leader Nokia.

Motorola, whose slimline RAZR phone has proved popular among consumers, is due to report its fourth-quarter results next week, while Nokia reports on Jan. 26.

Stockholm-based Ohman analyst Helena Nordman-Knutson said Sony Ericsson was set for a steady 2006 amid a sector that was faced with strong competitive challenges.

"A combination of Ericsson's technology and Sony's expertise in music and imaging creates an attractive offer," she said.


Does anyone know which telecoms conference this is? To be held in Barcelona?

May be the new smartphone and clamshell will be announced at this time.

Yeah, I remember now.

I remember posting that a new slew of 3G phones would be released which turned out to be false

The article mentions how Mobile TV would be packaged. Are we to now expect Walkman TV...
