"also an new tip.se readies new line of multimedia smartphones that will be announced in sep-oct.they will all use the clie brand name and not vaio as it was originally thought.the sure thing is that they will all have 320×480 screen resolution"
hmmm...interesting...

At the moment though, it's just Sony branding overkill.

and Cybershot should be enough.
Handy Cam should be intergrated with the Cybershot range, and Clie, no-one really knows it anyway. It makes Sony Ericsson look far too Sony, especially now with the very

-like Z610 clamshell.

I think Clie is ideal for lower end

non-touchscreen smartphones.
Whether people like it or not, Sony is part of Sony Ericsson - I seem to remember hearing that Sony stopped making the Clie
The S700i was successful and that was designed and manufactured by Sony.

But I think that using Sony branding for just about every area of SE's porfolio is just overkill. It does undermine Ericsson a bit. Some people (albeit, ignorant people) just think that Sony Ericsson is a Sony thing, with an extra name added to the side (to keep it simply).

I understand completely the issue you are raising, however whether or not

is overshadowed by too many 'Sonyisms' appearing may not be as important from a business perspective.
Its a
joint venture and both Sony and

will benefit from it - regardless of how Sony the handsets look.
If all

handsets bore Sony characteristics and the company as a whole profitted, then how is

being damaged? IMO as long as the handsets bear the

name then whats the problem.
