@scotsboyuk: You have to remember that the Nokia 3310 was rife, everyone had one in the UK. Not many other phone makes got a look in. If Nokia werent as omnipresent, i think more people would have cottoned on to the sony. As usual, its a case of people being sheep, and following the herd. Even at the time, the 3310 was crap! But you could get little rude "picture" messages so everyone wanted one. Im sure if more people had seen the pictures on a sony they would have went for it, but Nokia nipped in with the bullshit marketing as usual. Its only now, a few years later, that people are starting to realise that Nokias are basically dull, basic, and uninteresting. Could be argued that silver clamshells, whatever the make, are the new Nokia, i suppose.

Motorola also had a sizeable share of the UK market, especially before Nokia took off. Nokia was and is the most popular brand in the UK, indeed, in much of the world. I don't think Sony's mobiles were bad, in fact I think that they were rather good phones; I was certainly always pleased with them.
I think Sony had realised that they had come into the global mobile phone market at a late stage and were looking to link up with a more established player so as to increase their presence.

You couldn't add more pictures though could you?
I used to love that blue and silver sony, j5 i think, which was really skinny. That was a good phone.
It had sand art aswell, which is 10 times better than any poo snake game.
Who would have thought that a game where you can make different colour pyramids could be so fun? and the music "doo doo do dooo doo" it was SO GOOD!

I always remember thinking that orange backlight was a dashed smart.
