I said that the Lund quarter is EXTREMELY important for SONY. I said that there will be changes and layoffs but I didn't think they were gonna lay off that many. The good thing is that software/UI is kept here, if Japan gets all that we might just end up with a new Touchwiz 
That's a very presumptuous and borderline racist thing to say. Besides, TouchWiz is made by Samsung in Korea.
I'm sure the software and UI designers in Japan are perfectly proficient and doing their jobs. |

If you think the GX is sexy, start thinking about a comparative for "sexy"... You'll need it in a couple of weeks

Hrmm...I saw this from a user named zomgbbqftw on NeoGAF who seems to have some insight into Sonys businesses, but I don't know if he's an actual insider or just a fan. Nevertheless, I found it interesting and am wondering if anyone knows if it's true:
This means we will get the first true Sony phone late in 2013, something that has been designed fully in house. There are also rumours hotting up that they will make a move for ST-Ericsson soon, bringing an SoC designer in house. Ericsson have wanted out for a while and STM need the cash so a bid would be accepted.

I remember some people have said they wish Sony would aquire/parter with ST-Ericsson, but I don't recall any real rumours saying Sony wants to make a move for them. So... anyone know if there's truth to this? |

Hmm! Interesting spot there vivftp. But quite frankly this is the first time I've read about Sony wanting to acquire ST-Ericsson. And personally I would say it isn't gonna happen. ST-Ericsson acquisition would mean churning close to 1.5-2 billion dollars. |

The only other Sony phone that's even been hinted at would be the Xperia Nexus, so maybe rog is talking about that? Or maybe the LT25i? I suppose we haven't seen any pics of that to date.

I agree it's a long shot, but it would defaintely beef up Sonys mobile business profile if they either aquired, or replaced Ericsson in that joint venture. As for the cash, well Sony's been on one helluva spending spree over the past year so I wouldn't put it past them. Hell, they're looking to spend 3/4 billion dollars to aquire all shares they don't currently own in the Japanese ISP So-Net. It isn't inconcievable that they'd toss a couple billion dollars to have their own SoC manufacturing process for mobiles, which is now one of their core businesses.
