I don't know what to think of this rumour however I have read in a few places that they have a few 'surprising' things up their sleeves for release next year.

Written by the trustful source Eomer on MR (About the 12 mpx phone):

"It's 3430 and it's awful that someone has leaked about the device so early."

I have a feeling it is true. Eomer at M-R confirmed its existence by saying what a shame it was that someone leaked it so early. He also corrected the article saying it's a TI 3430. (ETA: Touche to the poster above me)

I've became sort of cynical about SE rumors ever since the Paris disaster, but this phone has the potential to be great assuming it isn't canceled or something. S60 is a huge plus in my opinion. And people have been talking about third-gen TI chips forever and nothing's materialized until now.

Even if this phone isn't released or doesn't exist--something like it surely does. There must be a C905 successor next year and it can only build upon what the C905 already has, and a 10+ MP camera phone is surely the answer.

except the part IT SUCKS...but then, its normal in tech world for this to happen...the worse stuff to become the standard...lets hope SE at least uses UIQ engineers to make a decent UI for their version of s60 touch

Yes, except that would be an opinion similar to my opinion that it's great. I'm not going to apologize for liking something you do not.

And if you read the article you'd see that it says it will have a "iPhone-like" interface, so only the OS architecture will be S60 while all the visual elements will likely be in-house SE design.

This whole pro-SE/anti-Nokia or anti-SE/pro-Nokia dichotomy really annoys me. Am I the only person in the world who loves both?

i did not say you weren´t entitled to your opinion...
also, you find many symbian experts saying UIQ was the most refined solution...

in this blog you can find a series articles from a symbian dev, that clearly show why many think UIQ was the better solution

i´m just sad SE had to f... it all

Yep.

Sounds like it.

I care less and less these days about what is rumoured. The stuff thats announced still isn't even in the shops! The cameras are getting good enough, so are the music players and general multimedia support, so as long as you go for a smartphone OS you can probably keep the phone up to date anyway on the software side. Besides, as mentioned above, the Paris cancellation gives us an idea of how fickle these rumours are anyway, and how they come and go. Alot of us are here wanting more from a mobile, so the X1 comes along, and suddenly alot of them can't afford that though. LOL!

Whitepaper states that omap 3430 supports camera up to 12MP...

Did anyone know another phone that has omap 3430? Since it's 2 years old platform...

long live paris, woot ... does anyone care that SE effectively pulled out of the smartphone race this year and outsourced it to some other company?

i mean the X1 has garnered MUCH more of my attention after the video on unwired showed how fast the interface has become ...

by the time the keyboard is slid out all the way the screen has changed, and vice versa, pretty impressive.

I'm tired of waiting for something decent from SE that never comes. At least for next year I will be using my new HTC Tytn II (and P1 to some extent since I have twin SIM cards).
If SE is still around and some things have changed perhaps I will consider SE again, otherwise it looks like my more than 5 years with UIQ/3 has finally come to an end, no thanks to SE's brilliant (!) efforts.
P990i: A mistake, a curse and a disgrace So I lowered my expectations and settled for a P1i. I couldn't keep my expectations so low for a long time so now I have an HTC Touch HD

Its weird a leakage like that (about korkura) has come out considering SE's tighter security on infos bout upcoming handsets.
If korkura will be the next SE bombshell in MWC '09, SE in all aspects should gave guarded infos concerning it. Am sure SE wants another Xperia-like show stealing surprise in MWC '09.
Imo, that korkura leak is so premature. And somewhat dubious.
