@marik
No one can posts pics unless SE releases them. Just because it 8am when you wrote here, doesn't mean that it's 8am in the whole world!
We will se pictures and get more info when SE wants us to see and know.
It's a shame that they only use Memory Stick DuoTM for the S710a and not pro (yes it says duo on the SE site and not duo pro).

No, S710a is GSM850/1800/1900 instead of GSM900/1800/1900. GSM 850 replaces the 900 band which is used mostly in the US. It seems this phone is made for the likes of AT&T and Cingular in the US, though I'm not sure if they will carry an expensive phone like the S710a or the P910a

@cmc
I'm extremely surprised that the s701a will be released in north america...although I have to wonder how many people will buy one...it will most certainly be extremely pricey and, like the p900 here in canada, you will only see them in the stores...thats besides the fact taht I don't particularly like that phone (s710) because it only looks good with the swivel closed...wouldn't dare make a call in public with that thing open!

even in american markets, there is an increasing desire for high end more expensive phones. So I would definitely hope network will pick it up.... but who knows
