SonyEriccson - i still think it can work, but i'm an optimist.

all the press release means is if the next few quarters continue to show a dive on market share then they should pull out while they can.

regardless of who has the best phone on the GSM handset market this makes perfect business sense.

mass buying public rarely purchase the 'best' phones and increased market share does not equal best product.

i think the pairing of Ericsson & Sony was and still is a good one, just remains to be seen whether the phone buying public takes to their handsets....they made the best high end phone(T68), they should have made sure they made the best middle and low end phone and not them fisherprice looking handsets i've seen...they're the ones than drive market share.

Nokia confirms Samsung phone GUI win
By Andrew Orlowski in London
Posted: 30/08/2002 at 14:43 GMT


Nokia has confirmed that handset rival Samsung will incorporate the Series 60 GUI and software stacks into future smartphones - five months after The Register exclusively brought you the news.

Samsung became the first licensee for Series 60, and since then Siemens and Matsushita, which markets phones under the Panasonic brand, have also climbed on board. Samsung executives confirmed that it had thus become a Symbian licensee a few days later at the CeBIT show. A Nokia spokesperson told us that the contract had only been finalized over the summer.

Nokia's aggressive policy of licensing its crown jewels to rivals is intended to snuff out the challenge from Microsoft's Stinger smartphone platform. However Stinker, as it's become known, seems to be doing the job quite nicely without any intervention.

Samsung, like most vendors, is platform-agnostic, and the biggest licensee for Stinker: two weeks ago pictures of its SCH-I600 were disclosed in a regulatory filing submitted to the FTC.

The first Series 60-based phone, Nokia's own 7650 [review], began shipping in volume this summer. ®

it is best that erisccon combined with sony due to as we all now the japanese incorporates quality in every product they make like cars and anything electronic. it even surpasses those made by guys from the west which is basically true. nokia lacks quality due to i have experienced it.

btw. this super:) s40 is selling as a pre-paid for about 120euro. Problem with SE is that phones are too expensive and they often don't understand marketing rules. In this times we can sell even a shit if it's nice coloured packed and smells good(nokia)

Just take it this way!
Nokia = Microsoft
Sony Ericsson = Sun Microsystem/ Apple
Samsung = Lunix
Other phones = any comapny

Nokia is so powerful as it already has it foundation set so well that only a few Nokia users will be willing to change to other brands of phones.

Its as simple as Microsoft. You would never change your Windows to an IMAC would you?
As simple as that.
