Frankly I'm quite surprised SE finally gave it to demands from fans Old & New: Bring us Cybershot and Walkman features without cramping either's style or limiting us in quality.
 delivered finally on BOTH the W995a & Idou.
However, I don't know if Idou will be in my pocket as its using the SE proprietary headset/USB connection and no specific photo showing use of 3.5mm headset jack. Odd as the SE W995a has BOTH!

I'm sold! SE, you had me at 'touchscreen camera'. I'm glad you beautiful people provided us with this freak of nature. Wow, I haven't sounded like this in ages! Now...back to being a fanboy again...

Wow - After I 'broke' the news in this tread (a few hours ago),it caught 'fire'.  The nice thing about this cell is its OS. It will use the mighty s60,which I know inside out and 'pushed' since my 7650 Is not only a 'cybershot' and 'walkman' and what have you, but its also a SMARTPHONE ! Let's hope Nokia won't be to strict with their patents, in which case, SE should have it bug free just in time for christmas

LMAO! Me a wanna be SE fan? Dude I've been on this site and have used quite a few Ericsson then SE phones first hand! Take a look at my profile and my signature and understand the reason I left SE was because I need more powerful calendar management and I prefered the S60 interface vs Windows Mobile. I've left SE - I dont' hold allegiance to a brand just because of the brand but what they consistently deliver. I've come back to SE before 2x now - and can TRUELY say I'm a REAL fan! I don't stay complacent with SE because I want the BEST from them, and if you think the C905 is the best - they wouldn't have made the C903 and definately finally realized that better products & services could be made for consumers such as myself that want Cybershot & Walkman in 1 product package; not either or. I'm not the only one to state so for years either, since the K750/W800i.
Also I want a REAL stereo at home to connect my smartphone/phone to not these dinky SE speakers for portable use - although 2 desktop versions caught my interests.
@echo.shane, you need to fully get your facts together about someone before trying to insult them.
Also you're from Jamaica - which part do you hail from? I have a long history of family there; and depending upon you're age you'll know who they are if you've seen the statue of Montego Bay airport. As I understand, Here in Canada we had GSM longer than Jamaica has - I even recall making long distance calls via Operator first to specify the # to connect the call, or running down to the Operator office in parts outside of Sandy Bay. Even if we're the same age which I doubt, if you've lived in Jamaica only your life I'd have been using cellphones - specifically Ericsson longer than you have IF we went by that estimation.
I don't switch my phones frequently - because I carefully choose the phone I want before making a costly purchase. I choose my phone for daily use not because its in style or because others have it. I choose my phones because I want functionality, quality build or in the OS, and performance. Sure esthetics are part of my decision but to a lesser than 30% degree of my decision process. After 6mths many ppl her get bored of their phones because something better in features or style comes out. Unless its significantly better than what I have (I don't own a cellphone currently), then its not for me.
Lastly, you call yourself an SE fan - but have only been on this site since "Sep 12, 2008" which is the longest and still the most popular = members & site visits (unique) per month, although SEBlog and that other SE fan site gets close. Many SE fans here where not satisfied with SE's feature phones and QUICKLY upgraded to the X1 since it debuted. That should tell you that to be an SE fan shouldn't mean you must be happy & complacent with all their offerings - and keep buying their products just because of the logo.

Guys, this is not S60. It is not entirely what you S60 users will be used to... This is Symbian Foundation, which "will unify Symbian, S60, UIQ and MOAP(S) software*". So think of this as one of the first Symbian Foundation devices!

Actually, no it won't use S60. It'll use Symbian-Foundations' Open-Source, Unified OS (strengths from UIQ, S60, MOAP, and S60 5th Edition).
SE can keep their Patents as long as they wish. This solidifies their efforts in using an Open-Source OS and allows them to fully market this Idou and differentiate their brand using this OS. But being a smartphone and all seperate platforms of Symbian OS in all forms means:
* Greater support for applications! Hopefully Nokia Beta apps will eventually cross over for us on other manufacturers and not be brand-certificate limited only to Nokia devices.
* PyS60, Ruby, Java, Flash Lite ALL getting universal installation, runtime, and application interface support.
* Quality phones from other manufacturers using the same OS which must be compatible to the original code of the Open-Source; will allow them to make applications & features unique amongst themselves and allow for better competition!
* Better provider support since many major providers want to limit their development costs for branding phones, releasing software linking to their in-house service (hopefully I can download Rogers/Vodafone software for a non-branded phone and use services so long as I've subscribed or using the respective SIM card).
