Yeah, he looks friendly enough. I'd share my coffee break with him.

Yeah, the picture on the first page looks like he has just sat on a drawing pin!

Can't wait to read the answers, it'll be very interesting to see what he has to say although he's probably not had a minute to himself since he started.

Personally, I am looking forward to his response to Question 6. The iPhone question is a bit mute now as it hasn't been the roaring success in Europe that many thought it would be although it would be good to see what he has to say anyway.

Just a small update. Aldo just got back from CES and told me that everything is pretty hectic right now (wonder what this could be), but that he'd see what he could do before 3GSM.

He hasn't forgotten it - there has simply been lots of things to do and also Mr. Komiyama has been very busy with settling in the company.


I'm sorry that this is taking so long. It is really my fault and not Sony Ericsson's. To ask ten hard and direct questions to a completely new CEO that has only been in the position for some days and has yet to visit the different factories, etc., was just plain stupid of me. But don't worry - I'm sure most of the answers will still prove valuable in early 2008.

Whoa, don't be so hard on yourself about it! It was a good idea to ask the questions and I'm sure that us Esato members can wait as long as it takes for his reply!

Really, it wasn't stupid of you!

I think it's great if he knows and understands the consumers expectations and hopes very early in his tenure so that SE can start off to a good beginning under his leadership. It would not be such a good idea to voice these concerns halfway through his time as president, all the while oblivious of SE's currently sad reality. So well done Mizzle!

Yes, Mizzle, don't be hard on yourself.

To get a CEO of a major corporation like SE to directly answer any questions would be a major achievement.
-From my expeience its hard enough getting the PR department to respond to anything but everyday marketing blar.
If you are successful, you will have done very well.

Actually, it's not that hard. You've just got to know the right people Usually the PR department replies in less than 5 minutes if I write in work hours. Out of work hours it can take several hours or to the next day.

By the way, I've already done the same with Miles Flint, the ex-CEO of - but that was an interview, not questions from you guys

Dear expert Mizzle
I am Sorry to say that Google maps mobile can not identify Serial port hence hge 100 doesnt work at all in non gps phones like K800i etc. If you have proof of its working then kindly post some pics if you can otherwise ask them to launch a better gps accessory.

Look here

52 phones listed as being compatible including low-end, mid range and high end phones. Most phones are either just released or recently announced, but K800i/K810i/K818/K858 are included also P1i/P1c.
