i think combining TI-OMAP 2420 CPU and GoForce 5500 is not possible, just because imho both processors don't have compatibility with itself, and i can't remember any symbian device to have GoForce 5500 chip instead the second-rate PowerVr GPU. it think it's some kind of binary incompatibility. so if sofia would have NVIDIA chip it won't be a UIQ smartphone(otherwise it could be Windows!!!
), seriously

Wow u have wide knowledge mate

I HOPE.....I JUST HOPE !!!!.....THAT SOFIA ISN'T A UIQ Because I Hate UIQ
Personal Opinion lol

@bavlondon2...
I noticed that when you're talking about Sofia, You're talking like you're sure of what u r talking about, like u said ( it wont have VGA, only QVGA@15 ) bu most of us says ( It may and may not, just we're hope )
I mean did you own Sofia ?? used it ?? or know some insiders ??

I already use...W900 for one year...and this phone still Ultimate W series from
Hope SE will replace it with :
3.2Mp autofocus / 1Mp front camera
30Fps Video Recording
GoForce 5500
Advance Walkman Player 3 with DSP
2.8 Display 16M color.
Posted by samuraitor
1 Mega pixel front camera?? yeah well, probably a typo...
Posted by xumdeo
aight, im finally back from doing some great stuff lol.
250Mhz 333Mhz won't make much difference as long as u are not running a smartphone system. if ur MSDP card is slow it'll be slow forever no matter what you do. take the most theoratic example of saving pic, the difference between taking 1.2 sec and 1.0 sec to save, no effect on user experience really.
also, it depends on the software (c.f. MAC OSX & Windows Vista) as well as the amount of RAM (again hardware AND software vis s60 with/without FP1)
and most importantly the battery performance, (xenon flash remember?)

Shaliron,
The first page is very crowded by now. Why you keep adding new stuff and not remove false rumours and already announced models? By doing that there are going to be only the phones to expect in the FUTURE. There is no point keeping the entire history. A good purging is necessary in my opinion.

although SE offering lets you hook your phone to your car/home stereo through audio jacks cables (or even bluetooth module) still , they didn't offer the possibility of a (phone-TV) connection. TV out (as i am purely guessing) should be highlighted in any of the upcoming phone.
it's speculation: try to imagine something (although not that impossible) that a new phone, with Walkman 3.0, has a TV-out. you can link it to any tv, turn on the Walkman player, and you have the interface infront of ur eyes.
plus, if the walkman player has the ability to store lyrics along with the song. and it displays it on TV screen.
or think, that if you have lyrics files on the phone (as txt file). linked to a certain song (the proper song that is), the lyrics scroll over the screen (as screen saver.
add some light effects (haptics), and you have an innovative Music centered phone offering.
wishfull thinking. . . . .

I am sure they have that bluetooth TV streaming accessories. SE will not make your wish come true because they will have less accessories for sale

I was just looking at the new UI with call/hang up keys and no back button on the Z750, and its obvious that there will be three options present at the bottom of the screen similar to UIQ.
http://www.mobileburn.com/ima[....]y+Ericsson+Z750%22+pos3+%2F%3E
In this picture you see select and back, with the left option not visible. So if you were to go into file manager or look at pictures etc, options or more would be on the left. And there you have a UI that kinda resembles UIQ but it isnt at all. So my bets are that Sofia will have the same UI as Z750 - updated Java platform (8?), and have no UIQ. Correct me if im wrong, was just a spur of the moment thought...

SE is planning to release a PSP phone... but now a chinese company released a PS3 hpone...
taken from website:
This is a new Sony PS3 mobile phone...that plays Nintendo's Super Mario Bros...and which uses Microsoft's PS3 operating system - no, wait, that's not right. Hang on it's made in Koera - where the hell's Koera?!
Yes, what we have here is the mother of all clone phones. It's a Chinese phone (naturally!), and its makers have decided that imitation is most definitely the sincerest form of flattery. As such, they've named it the Amycoll PS3 phone, which, er, "flatters" both Samsung, with its Korean Anycall brand, and also Sony, with its PS3. They've even added PlayStation buttons on the keypad, just for good measure!

not ready yet
they'll commercialize OLED for computers first
because outside Japan the screen itself does not represent as much added value to a phone as a stand alone screen for computers
BenQ-siemens had an OLED screen-ed phone a while ago, a candy bar with better camera than K750i... and it looks great, one of my friends is still using it
but yes, thte VZ90 is a classic
most of the team went into Vaio and Walkman later

Well problem with OLED is shorter life compare to LCD. LCD is around 50k hr while OLED maybe half now (used to be only 10k hr 2 years ago). The most added value is much less power requirement and said to be very thin. I think it may be ideal for mobile which only have life around 3 yrs-4yrs anyway (who still use motorola brick phone daily nowadays?). I think if they can reach at least 24k hr life they may put it on mobile as it means about 3 years of continuos work before broken, with screen off I think it is enough. Notebook only work about 8hr a day which make it to 8yr MTBF.
Edit: BTW, isn't SE has used OLED for front screen for Z610?

yes, it's monochrome like ur MP3 players; but just like Samsung/LG subdisplays on their phones, color rendering is poor even when they say it's 65K it looks very unnatural when put side by side to a TFT for example (same goes to creative mp3 players with that square screen)
the only good commercialized small OLED screens (full color) i've seen so far are on the Clie VZ90
, Benq-Siemens S88 and kyocera's mediaSkin phone for Japan (AU KDDI)
been busying with an announcement for tomorrow, something that looks like an iPhone, behaves very differently, does a lot more.... Japan only, sorry folks. (not from SonyEricsson nor Sony either).

Ahh, BenQ-Siemens S88......lovely little phone(shame it couldn't save them)...
(I think chassis was passed to I-mobile for the 902...anyone??
)
C'mon, open those eyes, Goldenface!
Xumdeo already said Japan only(damn)..... 
Oh, from Gearfuse, apparent specs for it:
3″ WVGA TFT screen, 520Mhz CPU, 256MB flash 128MB SDRAM, 17.8mm thin and weighing at 156.9grams
Shame(I miss Sharp phones).....

do you know anything about them
specily sharp
i think it has multey touch screen
Posted by xumdeo
what HTC Touch has stays with HTC
as for the sharp, you'll find out in less than 12hrs. no difference for me telling you here. but the company has an even cooler proprietary technology involving "touching". imagine how the Iriver Clix made the conventional button pressing a lot more fun; this is what Sharp is (going to do) doing with "touch". not by changing it completely but smartly modifying it to make it very very different, again, Sharp only. something that you may see tomorrow, or in 2 years, or never.
anyway, back to SonyEricsson
a lot of people are predicting a gaming phone to come real soon.....
hmmm is that really possible?
some are even saying that at least one of those phones off the list on page1 (not under gaming phones) should be gaming phones for real...
