The Z780, a sister product to the recently announced Z770, is set to broaden the range of web-enabled phones into more markets across the globe. It packs tri-band 3G and HSDPA into its stylish clamshell frame, letting you receive email or browse the web at high speed in countries across the world.

I Z780! very good specs! Actually it makes me believe that SE dropped production of the Z750i because it looked too much like the z600 and caused issues within the sales channel. Well A2 platform is officially going forward by SE and firmwares should be more solid in the future. A-GPS is a GOOD thing, and their marketing this usage/feature perfectly.

I just checked the Indian SE product page and both, Z770 and Z780 are missing??? Can anyone tell me what's wrong??? Is SE not releasing these phones here??? I may not be the one to buy it but these would have still sold well here... |

I already heard from multiple people, that it's not being released on European market, which is a real shame as it looks like 100 times better then Z770i !
