Looking over the the review of the C902 at GSM Arena, there seems some significant improvements in not only the firmware, but the camera driver too.
I was thinking, in the firmware release for the current A200 models (K850 and W910) there will be the new features found in the C902 like menu customization, animated launching effects, vaster media player usage and face detection in camera.
Can people share their thoughts?

Don't you mean w910

Looks like SE doesn't bother anymore about the k850 so no new features imo.

well, for starters, they should try not to make a firmware which has the "BROD" feature.. then add the face detection, etc..

Since I've had my V640i I've noticed some interesting things in the A200 platform such as a the Media Player being customisable in Theme Creator, Email Inbox and Create Email options are easier to access, the Camera UI is straight out of the Cybershot Digital Camera range, ability to save text messages on the M2 card... and I don't miss the back button.

I was pretty ho-hum about A200 TBH 'cause I liked the A100 platform alot, but A200 is superb and cements

as the only phone brand that interests me for the forseeable future.

One thing that pains me about the A200 platform is the fact it has no play/stop button (ahhhh)
