If you take a look at the new Cyber-shot phones released in japan
http://www.mobile-review.com/fullnews/main/index_eng.shtml#17658
You will notice some good developments, eg:
-GPS which takes note of where you are when you take a photo
-Video out
-2.8 inch widescreen
-480x800 p!!!!
-microSD storage cards
A good sign of things to come from SE maybe?

I think a lot of people is saying things they don't knew about....
For sure Josephine and Tyra is based on the same platform as W960 is since they have the same bugs (firmware R6)....Beibei is based on new platform (with firmware currently in stage R1)...not sure if it will be a walkman or a P series...Maybe the new platform is called Paris...but from what I knew there is no new phone with the code name Paris.
So why isnt SE releasing all phones based on the same platform...3 things
Buggs, buggs, buggs (remember P990 and M600), battery and size...
Hopefully things get more clear after 3gsm in Barcelona...
I wonder if Beibei will be based on UIQ 3.2 (with symbian 9.2) or if it will some new UIQ that is based on the superb symbian 9.5 (with much greater memory handling). |

Peple I f**ked up some info in the last post...
Paris is indeed the new slider phone with 5 mp,
So i guess that Paris, Josephine and Tyra is the phones that will be press released in Barcelona...
However the Beibei is based on the new platform thar SE is currently working on (both hardware and software)...She is not ready to be released yet...The Pictures someone (Betatester) showed of a phone chassi is correct for Beibei. But since she a long time from release she can change design until release.

Are Josephine and Tyra also part of Xperia or are they P series phones? |

I only saw Beibei and Josephine...Josephine is a very slim phone similiar to W960 in function with 3,2Mp camera (no wlan). Not sure about Tyra but something similiar to Josephine...Beibei was fun but feelt cheap in material (prototype)...It has the scrollwheel where the joystick usually is. With Beibei SE changes how buttons work...But I must say that I am a little dissapointed on SE that they
1 late with new smartphones.
2 Didnt manage to release the same hardware spec that A200 currently have at the same time for their symbian. Meaning A200 developers and symbian developers don't cooperate so good. This is mainly a managment problem for SE (to many old farts are sitting behind the steering wheel of the company).
I think SE managers focus to much on A200 development sine they earn most money there...but they must understand that the future is in smartphones...
Now to something diffrent I have an idea...Why didn't phonemakers release a syste,/function that opens an ip link between phones that are callaing to each other...then people could send files, between each other during calls... |

@GT
So Beibei may try some new things in terms of buttons but is cheaply made. What do you think about the UIQ, is it good enough for the P5 in terms of using it with your fingers? |

Update: right now paris has still 3 different protos...they have yet to decide what will reach market...marketing campaign is prepared for all three, so when they decide near 3GSM, there will be no problems
Also, has i said in the other topic, SE is working with 2 new versions of UIQ, of them being UIQ4 based on Symbian 9.5. The other, that i canīt put my finger on, will be used in less powerfull phones |

This may explain what had Mizzle so confused...there are multiple devices (possibly with different specs) running around.
Thanks for the update.
I hope SE chooses to correct one.  |

And I hope SE chooses the right one to, the one with highest specs and newest UIQ, I want no UIQ 3.0 with an old Symbian 9.1
And I hope SE understands the finer points with a super high-end device, after all, this is not suppose to be a low end phone that everyone can buy, this is a flagship, and you don't use mediocre specs with a flagship, it's suppose to show what SE can do.
I know they want to maximise the income on every model, but with a flagship that is not always the point, SE, stop make everyone disappointed with a super-high-end that is closer to mid-end, seriously.
Current mobilephone: P1i and my now old K800i, and before that W800i, V800i, Z600i, and T310. Waiting for X10. |

The three protos may not actually be different spec-wise...they may just each have different form factors (vertical slider, horizontal slider, bar).
Considering the rumors regarding the specs haven't changed (except for when it was actually upgraded to OMAP 3), I doubt SE would suddenly downgrade everything to make it appeal to the masses.
It'll be high-end.
And it better be quadband...or I shall cry. |

It would be so awesome if they released, all at the same time, the three of them, each with a different form factor and slightly different look, but same specs. THAT would be something Ive never seen before. Probably not very good as a business strategy, but what showmanship!
lol! I hope for quadband too. |

Not Only QuadBand GSM but Triband HSDPA just like all the other newer phones to come out (K850i, Z750i, W760). Can't have a flagship not have all the bands. HSUPA/HSPA+ would be nice. QuadBand HSDPA for AWS 1700 band would make it ultimate (and stop T-Mobile USA people from complaining).
