Agreed about if it had wifi I wouldn't surf with it when I have mu Vaio... However it would be nice and handy to just download apps straight to the phone via wifi.

Hi
I'm glad to see that finally we have a credible image of Hermione.
The press release is strange though...

Anyway, I've tried to protoshop the image without much success.
The original image is stamped, and the resoltion is very low.
I have to idea what the stamp says, but it seems probable to me they used the image without authorization from SE.

Anyway, here is the result.
I hope now that we have a real image of Hermione, someone comes forward and releases *decent* images of the thing!

I have one problem with this phone and that is the screen size.
if the keys do flip down like the p910 it doesnt seem to add up to this sort of size


what do you think ?

You are right! =:-o

This phone has the same proportions of my P910 !
When I placed a 240x320 screen on it, it became apparent that there is a lot of space in the bottom below the screen (behind the flip keyboard). This phone should be larger to the sides.

Seems like a 208x320 phone to me.
If you place a P910 side by side with a zoomed image of Hermione, you see that the main difference is that the screen starts closer to the top, but all the proportions are the correct.

To me this is a 3G/UMTS version of the P910.
Maybe the phone everyone's expecting, it's the one that's only going to be released in 2006 (?)

1) since the screen is pushed up, do you guys think it is possible that some buttons have been added below the screen? (beneath the flip)

i think that arrow keys and green/red phone buttons would be really handy.

2) if it has GPRS, does that imply that there's no EDGE?

3)no wifi sob
3210 --> s35i --> 8210 --> 8310 --> n-gage --> p910i --> hmmm

the same proportions are kept but the density of the screen might have changed. say 320x480. that's almost the same proportions as 208x320. not to mention sony clies had been using this screen size.

In my view SE will launch a number of devices. The 3G P910 replacement may not be a touch screen device, if it using UIQ 3 it will be keyboard controlled and it will not have a flip. I think SE should use a higher screen resolution for its next generation Smartphone, just look at the resolutions Nokia are using for their new N series phones.

Why not a touch screen, I didn't think that having a touch screen would be OS dependant more just hardware and additional software, couldn't SE just add this for touch screen support.
