vanquish; As I've said before:
It is a button, now and before. On early prototypes there were nothing printed on it.
The function of the button was not decided from the beginning, or just not implemented. It's functionality is still changing, but it's a sort of personal menu button, sort of shortcut menu. |

I'm doubtful about the new UI for Clara, because of the pics from a k600 running with what appears to be Clara software... But then, maybe they are just using this old UI with new icons for early prototypes, because their new one is not yet implemented? I'm not too sure, but only SE knows...  |

Sounds like a nice idea, but you can already personalise your menus (to a degree) Hopefully if they decide to keep this button they will have something inovative up their sleeve that will make good use of it !

Do you think SE will be slowing down on the development of Camera phones after Clara?
There is not much more you can do now, apart from maybe add a proper flash and usb port.
@Dontknow. Have you any idea what Clara will be called when it hits the shops? Not that it is important, just curious. |

I don't think 2 megapixels is the end of the road for camera phones.

I doubt it, remember samsung released a 5MX camera phone last year, and LG saying that they want to do a 10mp

I agree.... Samsung has 5 Mpx camera, and in Asia are lot of mobiles which has more than 2 Mpx camera...

before they increase past 2megapixels they really have to do something about the quality otherwise there is not much point, even if that means making all camera phones with CCD

Will the Autofocus on the Clara get rid of the 'blurry edges' associated with camera phone photographs?
The 5mp cameraphones on the south east asian market are one thing. Do you think it will catch on in Euroland? |

but how did you know it was a button from the beginning? it may have just been a block of plastic seperating the other two buttons, and later on SE may have decided to change it into a button, if it will be one.
Clara hasnt been released, and not many people know intricate details, so DONT get at me for not knowing 100% about this phone. We were just discussing the possibilities of it, not deciding that it was never a button man! chill out, knowitall

In my opinion, and in relation to the fact that we know that walkman phones is on the books (and clara is very likely to be a walkman phone), it could be a dedicated mediaplayer button as its the case with the z800. But thats just my thoughts about this button of mystery

I honestly think SE can come up with something a lot better than Clara for a music phone.
Don't forget SE/Walkman has to take on Moto and iTunes this year so Moto might be bringing out a iPod hybrid phone/music player.
SE will have to come up with something a lot better than this. I think Clara is a full-blooded camera phone and not a music player, at least I hope so.
Clara has nothing of the funky design that Walkmans have and this is something they simply will HAVE to introduce for them to compete with Moto.

So, you don't want the Clara to be a Walkman phone?
