Rumours are now being picked up by the Official news agency Reuters
They're saying Ai is a RAZR type phone from
How hyped?
Posted by PeterKay
That would be brilliant, a RAZR like
model. Hope its true!

@goldenface
Those photos you got look extremely fake to me. The build quality looks shocking if it were to be real, and it seriously does look as though somebody just got some type of black paper/plastic and stuck tin foil over it. In some areas you can even see some of the material bending. And the screen proportion is wrong as well.
I don't think this exists.
And SE should introduce an ultra-slim clamshell some I think. See the note on SE and slim phones for next year. I can betcha that there would be a clamshell somewhere.
And with the shocking similarity between my sketch of the W200 earlier, yes SE stole it
, here's a K810 type thing I did a while back as well. Maybe it could be a glimpse into the future, we'll never know 
And the watermark is to make sure some people don't start posting this as a real phone (gosh some are still using the fake K800 pictures as K850 ones).

He he he!
Glorious rendering there Shaliron.
I'm dying to know when these phones will be released. A high end UIQ imaging device is a must for me. I hope they're all announced early 07. I'm checking mobile-review for more info.

nice one,shaliron.

@G-Izzat, goldenface
Why thankyou.
Wish I could render the textures, but my less than brilliant skills at photoshop prevent me from doing so
UPDATE:
- We might see BRAVIA branded phone screens next year if SE Japan is a representation of next year for SE. SE normally does follow the trends/strategies of their Japanese branch and this could mean that we already know some specs of upcoming phones, i.e. SO903i and W880.
- We will see quite a few non-touchscreen UIQ phones next year.
- Eight UIQ phones will be available next year, including the three that we have this year (M600, W950, and P990). So this means that there are apparently five new UIQ phones yet to be announced.
OK, the first point is speculation, but the rest is new info. Non-touch screen UIQ phones, now that sounds interesting.
Posted by >500
the 5 non touch screen uiq phones, im guessing, will be new os for only high-end
and cybershot phones only....And perhaps for handycam phone....only in high end models though.....
I think we are certain to see bravia technology is
phones soon, we have many other things from sony, and if its going to benefits profits, of course they will use the feature 
Posted by G-Izzat
wow,that's good news for me.
especially the cybershot uiq phone.
thanks for the info,shaliron.
Posted by shaliron
@ads1107
No, not five non-touchscreen. There will be 5 UIQ phones, but some will be non-touchscreen.
And SE has said also that UIQ will be slowly integrated into high-mid range phones, but it won't completely replace he normal SE UI. Sorta like what Nokia is doing with S60.

@shaliron
Do you know how many J series will be produced? I think SE does not concern well on the low-end phones market. Just 3 Js for 2006...
Posted by cristiano
is it possiple that Ai going to have a good cam??(3mpx)
is Ai W880??
and is Ai candybar or clamshell??
can someone give us more info about Ai
thnx

@WhiteEye
I know nothing about what is happening other than what is posted on the first post. One thing though. I would expect a new low end to appear, just because it is a necessary market, and SE would be wise to update their product range.
But I would guess that eventually the K320 etc. would make the low end phones redundant. They are already cheap enough, and there really can't be to many products cheaper than the K310 anyway.
@christiano
is it possiple that Ai going to have a good cam??(3mpx)
Anything is possible
but realistically SE wouldn't change it last minute, so no. It is a phone for one, and it will have close to exactly the same features as the W850. I can be pretty sure as to say that it won't have a 3 megapixel camera. It will have a 2 megapixel camera, without autofocus and flash.
is Ai W880??
No, the W880 is a different phone.
and is Ai candybar or clamshell??
The Ai is a candybar. The W880 is a clamshell.
can someone give us more info about Ai
That's all the info we have.
Posted by G-Izzat
shaliron,
u said next year there'll be 5 more uiq devices.
do you think any of them would have a 3 mp camera with autofocus and touchscreen?
Posted by shaliron
@G-Izzat
No idea to be honest. I only gather facts, I know nothing personally remember
But we do think/know that there is a W950 with a camera coming up, and there may be a M600 successor as well. We believe the Handycam will be UIQ based as well.
That leaves two or three more unknown ones. Who knows?
Posted by G-Izzat
thanks,shaliron.
hopefully u can inform me if u got any updates regarding the uiq phones.
Posted by shaliron
Yes, just keep in mind that there will also be some non-touchscreen UIQ phones coming out next year.

2 things Dude! YEAH man I KNEW UIQ non touch screen was coming! Just as soon as the purchase of UIQ leaked I KNEW it. I'm hoping ALL new SE phone Walkman and alike will involve UIQ touch screen or not.
> I'm thinking eventually it will. SE has pretty much maxxed out the GUI on current K800 and not much functionality can be done, save for a few improvements & tweaks. however to go FURTHER then its pure UIQ3 from here on out. Bring it on SE bring it on with a can of WHOOP ASS to all other manufacturer's/
> Saliron, can you please re-edit your signature. I keep looking at it like a pure knweb and I keep thinking its a wiki to what you update on the first page and BAM it hits me again!
Posted by Paparazzi
Shaliron ... what is the probability of having the M600 with Wifi included? Would it by chance have even a 2mp Camera?
And, above all, when do you think this will be available? I lost my T610 in Germany while on a European Tour (July) and have been using a rubbish Nokia till now! Kept postponing the purchase hoping that SE brings out the M600 with Wife ... and yeah at about the same price!
Posted by shaliron
@Paparazzi
Well, if you're looking for an M600, plus wi-fi and a 2 megapixel camera, it's already here. The P990
But an M600 with wi-fi could possibly be the Elena as well. Keep watching the first page for updates.
@Prom1
Sorry but could ya rephrase?
I'm lost to be honest

is this mobile Ai??

if it's Ai than it's too ugly to be a hit phone

What will be the next cybershot phone to be announced?
Posted by PeterKay
Can't wait for official pictures and specifications for the AI model.
Posted by goldenface
Same here. We need something to wet our appetites
Posted by cristiano
dou know when will W880 will be in market?
Posted by goldenface
I'm hoping a few will on market Q1.
This message was posted from a S700i
Posted by bavlondon2
I doubt to see any decent ones in Q1 as surley they would have been announced by now.
But im sure Q2 will see an influx.
Posted by goldenface
I doubt they will all be announced at the same time but hopefully there will be a few early new year so people can sell their unwanted christmas presents to buy one.
Posted by bavlondon2
yeah for sure
I hope they announce something by the end of Jan. Im getting more and more tempted to sell my k800 (which ive now bought 2 times lol) and get an n93 as its now coming out on 3 soon. lol
Come on SE reps, abuse your positions and leak us some info!!

I've actually already mentioned this, but I don't think the W880 is a clamshell. Last time I'm saying this now
Posted by shaliron
@d_t
Whilst I trust you as a source, all the other rumours have been pointing to the fact that it will be the Z800 successor, and that it will be a flip phone. Otherwise, may it be a slider?
Posted by cristiano
maybe it's going to be Flip phone like this
just like this one
http://mobilementalism.com/20[....]shows-new-mobile-phone-design/
Posted by goldenface
Could be. With dedicated
player keys on one side and lcd screen on the other.

Its not Esato
Posted by goldenface
Now now! They will in their own time!
Forums rely on each other for info a lot of the time - we should respect that and be grateful.
Posted by shaliron
@goldenface
And without M-R forums, we wouldn't have all this information! But easto is still the place to go
UPDATE:
- The Ai will be announced in mid-February 2007, probably at 3GSM.
- There will only be one 5 megapixel camera phone from SE. Probably the Sofia.
I hope that last one isn't true. It kills the hope of an all-in-one from SE.
Posted by goldenface
I am really not too concerned about the MP race.
3.2MP shots are good enough to put in your photo album which is good for the average user. 5mp is a Bonus.
3.2mp with improve video recording and playback would be nice
Having said that, reading the 5.0MP cam review over on MR, the effective output is 8.0MP or so it says on the camera lens surround. Good for poster snaps.

Ai
Ultra slim (9.4mm) candybar phone. All the features of the W850. Metal on front, rubberized black material on back. Connector on the side. Keys like the K650 or 8850. Available on the market in Silver and Black. To be announced in November/December. 3G and HSDPA. No flash. Will come out with a 1GB M2 Micro Memory Stick. It will be announced in mid-February 2007, probably at 3GSM
someone at M-R saide before that Ai will be in market by February
and it's going to be announced in November/December like u saide before
r u sure about this thing??

what is W610??
edite: according to (playdead) at M-R Ai was seen at CASINO ROYALE
did anyone saw it?
[ This Message was edited by: cristiano on 2006-11-24 21:07 ]
Posted by shaliron
@cristiano
Yes, I have my sources about the release date
Where did you hear about the W610?
I would only guess that it would be the index for the mid range
slider. That would be the logical position.
@goldenface
I'd have to agree, but the 5MP photos are going to be noisier than the 3MP ones as well due to the sensor size, so I'd rather stick to 3MP.
And then, there's the issue of memory space. What's the point of going up and up if memory cards aren't going up at the same speed? Remember 1GB M2 is the best we have at the moment.
UPDATE:
- We can expect some slim SE sliders coming up. Maybe not too soon, but apparently, later next year.
And I'll refuse to post the info on the slim SE slider (with 2.2 inch screen, 11mm thin etc.) as there has been no confirmation from any sources yet, and that the term 'Visual Radio' was thrown in, which is a Nokia trademark, not an SE one.

shaliron,someone from se-nse pmed me and told me this.
"Elena will be the follow up model of M600 and Maria for W950. Both are again very similar and they have similar design to the actual phones. Elena will have wifi and a 3,2 MP cam.
Similar to sofia there will be 2 more phones starting with "S" but I cannot remember the name. Sofia and one of the others will have a 5MP cam, the third one wil "only" have 3.2MP cam"
Posted by shaliron
@G-Izzat
Thankyou for the info
I'll be sure to update it accordingly.
I always thought that Elena would be the M600 successor.
Posted by shaliron
And look what I've just found from Eldar in Part One of his P990 review:
| Quote: |
|
Now that was In Oct 2005; over one year ago, so the mobile in question has still not been announced. Perhaps this is because the P990 has been delayed for so long, SE have decided to delay or cancel the announcement of this phone.
It isn't the M600, because he's mentioned it in the review, but it seems like this phone will be announced eventually, but maybe it's been canceled due to the long wait.

Laffen always seems to get insider info, and hasn't given us anything false before, so I'm trusting him with this one.
I'm guessing the W610 will be the mid range
slider, but of course it's time for another...
UPDATE:
- The W650/K550 or K650 will have the same cameras, just different firmware, i.e. different player, Bestpic etc.
- The W880 could be the Ai's index, not the clamshell. Perhaps the W910 could be better suited to the clamshell.
And SE has finally given auto-focus to the
range as I was hoping would happen. Not so much of that separation anymore. Now there's a true upgrade to the W810 for us
