That is because of some tweet from SE North Amerika, they said there will be product announcements tomorrow. However SE The Netherlands sais that there aren't any announcements apart from the financials.
To be honest, SE's regions aren't really all that synchronized information wise. Not to mention, the focus is a lot different for SENA (Sony Ericsson North America) vs SENL. SENA primary focus for development is the XPERIA series and carrier verification for other phones (C905a, W760a, X1a. etc) going to NA carriers. Hell, a lot of the XPERIA product development is done in their California offices. I would definately take SEUS's tweet over what SE The Netherlands say about product announcements.

Dunno, but the NL market is a lot more the same as every other European market and they checked back at SE global. Anyway, read the post above for the announcement. Nothing interesting.

Welcome w518a and c905a. . . . Exclusively for at&t and support napster and what ever online store at&t using. That's all for today. Last hope is something during tomorrow 16th financial report. . . Something pop up. But hope seem fading. . . .

you all are on crack!!!
holy shit, theres no announcement! eldar said some shit and you all are hoping phones that according to mizz werent leaked would get legitimized a week later. thats not how SE works, ever. and the tweet from the NA SE who're the bastard step child of the company (weak carrier partnerships) and ppl were salivating and making news stories about it.
and now look, you get the 'a' versions of phones that have been out for over a year, whoopty-doo. hahaha
no need to get you hopes up, it should stand that well get these devices after satio aino and yari ... hopefully the company's 4th quarter offering, BEFORE december! and no '10 delays, they need this out before samsung can reload, and before nokia can start their hype machine.

Walkman™ phone experience reaches new audiences thanks to Sony Ericsson’s communications agencies
15 July 2009
The iconic Walkman™ phone sub-brand is now more accessible than ever before and to highlight this to consumers, four of Sony Ericsson’s communication agencies have developed a launch campaign, which starts today
London, UK – 15th July, 2009 – Sony Ericsson’s new W205 Walkman™ phone delivers a great music experience with its Walkman™ player, FM radio and TrackID™ music recognition. The W205 also enables users to easily share the handset and content with family and friends – its multiple phonebook feature lets up to four users create personalised contact lists that are kept separate, and the Bluetooth™ functionality offers image and video sharing.
Sony Ericsson challenged its agencies to create a consumer campaign which focuses on the idea that the W205 is “My First Walkman™ phone”, as it is an affordable mobile phone that is accessible to everyone, offering the quality expected from the Walkman™ brand.
McCann Erickson led the campaign, supported by Burson-Marsteller, iris and Mediaedge:cia, and they developed the theme ‘My personal music revolution’ to effectively show how everyone is able to enjoy the full Walkman™ experience and get the most from the handset’s music features.
Carolina Ortiz, Global marketing communications manager at Sony Ericsson, comments: “The W205 is for those who love portable music but have never had the Walkman™ phone experience. As the most affordable Walkman™ handset to date, more young people can now revolutionise their music experience by taking their music with them everywhere.”
To communicate the benefits of the W205, consumers will be reached through multiple media channels, including:
Print and billboard advertising
McCann Erickson developed a campaign to celebrate the W205 at an accessible price, with all the features consumers need to fully enjoy every moment. “Welcome to your own personal music revolution” was created to engage a youth target audience group and the advertisements have vibrant visuals of a multiplied person dancing and enjoying their music. The ads can be seen as single and double page spreads, as well as out-of-home advertising and some special format materials that emphasise the overall campaign concept.
Public Relations
Burson-Marsteller created a strategic global PR campaign with various consumer tactics and materials that all local markets could use to outreach to relevant media. Globally generated PR materials, including press releases, Q&As and toolkits, were developed, along with product factsheets, a social media news release and a product tutorial with the international Hed Kandi DJ, Sam Cannon.
Retail and Digital activation – Working with the ‘music revolution’ idea and strategy, iris created an immersive BTL in-store campaign that not only covers the core consumer journey but also builds on the revolution concept when it comes to activation. iris also developed a website allowing users to create their own music revolution. Visitors simply have to pick one of the rooms that are displayed on the website and play their music through a microphone on their computer. They will then either see the crowd in the room revolutionised, with enthusiastic cheering, or else throwing tomatoes at the screen, a direct effect of whether or not they like the sound of the music.
Media planning and buying – To initiate buzz and conversations around this new Sony Ericsson campaign, Mediaedge:cia’s strategic media outreach programme combines a mix of online, strategically placed outdoor and print advertising to drive consumers to make a purchase.
The new W205 Walkman™ phone
Love your music revolution with the following features:
* Enjoy your music with the high quality Walkman™ experience
* FM radio – catch up with the latest news and views
* TrackID™ – name that tune at a press of a button
* 1.3 megapixel camera – take great shots and share the fun instantly
* Video recording – capture your favourite moments on film
* Bluetooth™ – share your favourite songs, pictures and video clips, or connect to a wireless headset
* Multiple phonebook – keep your contacts in order and share your mobile phone with your family
The W205 Walkman™ phone supports GSM/GPRS/900/1800 and W205a supports GSM/GPRS 850/1900. W205 Walkman™ phone is available in the colour Ambient Black.

Well the Carphone warehouse are the biggest retailer of mobile phones in the Uk so they will have info that we don't, and seen as they got the Satio release date correct i don't see why this will be wrong.

Thanks poplover.
I guess there is no X4 because again, the number 4 is considered unlucky, especially in China.

Yep, it's pronounced the same way you'd pronounce "death". Silly superstitions...
...or was that Japan? After all, Sony is a Japanese company.

@Pop Lover, that link was already posted about two or three posts further up this page.
It may be worth noting the sole comment on that article too. Not sure whether we can trust it.

i wouldn't but my money on anything thats written in this article
their main source seems to be esato and eldars article
I cannot saying anything but I doubt anything but the X2 will be shown in 2009
sorry but this can hardly be true
X2s is based on winmob 6.5, delaying it until 2010 hardly makes sense since winmob 7 is just around the corner

I think bider is right. They didn't look at the date and took tomorrow as the 17th, I think.

tommorrow..

Well, don't count on it. The only source who told that is Softpedia, isn't it. It seems to me they are just wrong, as they refer to twitter and that is probably the same tweet as wednesday.

I rather get my updates from good old esato bloggers
check back in 9 hours I don't think any thing is being announced today but lets wait and see
Posted by HxH
I'm afraid I'm wrong too. No more random hints from me until real date appears.
Posted by T-mobile
What's the point of waiting for an announcement of a product if it won't hit the shelves immediately? Threre are more important things to look forward in life.
The most accurate place to find about the products is SE's website. Everything else is a pile of crap.

I seem to feel KIKI is either a copycat from Yanko design site.... but then.... this is posted on March....
its July now.... with the time line for phone to be developed....maybe SE come out the idea before this Lenovo idea being posted....as most of these ideas normally based on ... technology availability
today I get so obsess with yanko design...now makes me wonder does LG get their crystal concept thru the following ideas since it was posted in feb 2008
maybe we might see more esato concept ends up to be real phone ..not only for SE but other brand
http://www.yankodesign.com/20[....]trendy-people-need-this-phone/
then i found this which post up online in september last yr
look like SATIO!!!
http://www.artlebedev.com/everything/scartel/
maybe there's a bottle neck to get new breakthrough in design...not just on SE but many other company

Posted by domipost
I agree with the first two ones, but I don't think it has many to do with each other. As for the last one: that looks just as much like Satio as every other full-touch phone does.
Posted by bider
In my opinion Satio is too similar to LG's KU990... (I know it's a lot different, but still has many in common)

Posted by rizzamarv
Hmmm all this talk about similar designs just makes me wonder how long they can really continue coming up with groundbreaking differences. Especially in the TS sector there are limiting form factors which have to be taken into consideration...
Anyway even though its a matter of taste for me the SE designs are still number 1. Thats one of the main reasons I stick with this company (as we all know it wasnt because of the high end specs in the last years
)
Dont really have a point here
just wanted to state that I am pretty sure most of the main manufacturers do not try to copy to much from others think the odd element just comes out similar due to chance and not necessarily on purpose...

actually transparent LCDs aren't a new technology
every LCD is transparent - but without a strong light source in the back you hardly see anything. this is also why i highly question yankos design, because it would be only possible to use it in direct sunlight

so it's today the annuncement?
and at what time?

Well, they already made that for Keitai's. As for a non-keitai version, I have no idea.

Well the technology yes isn't new but we all now normal lcd can't generate light by themselve but oled can. Both design should be base upon all the hu ha on sony and other lcd maker have prototype of light guide less display which also translucent. The time line still fit since sony show its prototype before some one post their idea on yanko.

I wonder this is the right thread to post this. Once aino confirm out in uk end of this month. Can some one update here. I am in such a split whether to get an apple 3g s due to nice package from my carrier and aino. Smart phone might be way better on future but i guess for me. How cool my phone look is important and iphone isn't that cool compare aino
Posted by synn
I know this probably means nothing, but check this picture of the Aino out:
It's from the SE website and it looks like the hand in the picture is touching the MAIN menu and not the media one.
Sign of things to come?
