In PK's last post - the one of the man holding the 905 is funny - he looks like a mix of Jaws from 007, and Niko Bellic from GTA:4!!!
Sony Alpha.

Where is the loud speaker. On the K850i its on the back? but i cant see it any where on the phone.
I take it it does have one?
Its on the bottom by the looks of other images (check out the planete-nokia link from a few pages back).

Cheers Very strange place for a loud speaker tho. I thought they may have put it on the side etc?
Oh well.
Any White papers for the product yet? |

To me this looks like Sony Ericsson is actually listening to our complaints about previous handsets.
This C905 looks very promising to me. Infact, it looks like the phone I've been missing from SE for so long. It seems to have 94.71% of the stuff I'd like in my phone. Of course, I know other phones have looked like that too, and then turned out to be a disappointment, but there's something about this one somehow....
Missing jack-plug? What for? You need a special headset to get the antenna and microphone anyway. There's no reason to use a jack-plug.
Poor CPU? Don't forget that it's not running Symbian. I think it'll run fast enough, and I don't think Symbian can do a whole lot that you can't do with Java. Sure, there are a few things you can get with Symbian which Java doesn't offer, but take a moment to think about if you really need those. A few examples could be emulators, MOD/XM players and call-recording apps.
Personally I've never liked touch screens, and I think Symbian is generally too slow and messy. I prefer plain Java phone with no touch screen, thus the C905 looks really promising to me. I'll be disappointed if it doesn't offer VGA recording, but it won't what will keep me from getting it. A poor picture quality and buggy firmware will keep me from getting it, so SE better reinstate the QA phase. But we'll find out later after reading reviews and looking at full sized pictures. But I would have settled for a 5mp camera (in better quality than K850) if I could get VGA recording.
For now we have the hardware specs. Notice that they've put the Play button back, like so many of us have requested.
The only thing I'm not too happy about so far, is that the headset plug is positioned on the side. I think that might make it difficult for me to fit it in my pocket, so I guess I'll just have to use another pocket then.
Everything else about this phone looks fantastic. I can't wait for the reviews and the full sized pictures.

sadly, the official whitepaper answers our questions about video recording:
Video Size (Resolution) - QVGA 320x240 Pixels
Frame Rate - 30 fps
http://developer.sonyericsson.com/getDocument.do?docId=100360
this is a complete disaster, in this age and still QVGA recording... |

They went for QVGA? Oh, bullocks.
Anyway, the camera sensor in C905 is larger than what we've seen earlier on. |

That just doesn't make any sense. I'm guessing that decision must have come from reading users bitching about it taking up too much space. See what you get from that. |

What the hell is wrong with SE.
Why on earth QVGA.
This is now taking the biscuit |

QVGA!!!. What is SE thinking? VGA should have been standard on this phone. We have sub 300€ Nokia S40 and S60 phones doing VGA recordings. Why shouldn't this imaging flagship from SE be the same. Nokia 3600 Slide and 6500 Slide both have VGA 15FPS. Same with the music phone version of the 6500, the 5610

They do make some stupid decisions for each handset. This must be #1 for C905. |

Ok im serious worried. Just reading the white paper to which i hope its a miss print.
However on page 28 it says that there isnt a front forward video camera for video recording.
Please tell me that this isnt true as i use video calling loads |
