hi!!
The amount of model produced by Se is not sufficient. there is an urgent need to produce the phones in bulk the way the BLOKIA does. moreover, for the old model such as t610 j2... K.... w... z... are still marketable in most of the continents therefore there could be a modality of reproduce and supply these old models cause I dont believe if all the people around has that economical capacity to buy these new model. however, m not condemning on the new model production, rather just a suggestion on bulk production of the old model handset so as to CONQUER the market (To compete well with Blokia)

I can see your point, such as the similarity between the K310 and the K500, but the biggest change is the new UI found on most of the new phones. By using a phone such a the T610 for low-mid range you are making users use a SE UI that's several years too old.

if u like it or not, it seems that the nokia way is working. of course sometimes they make really weird and useless fones, but for example in 3g area they are more advanced like se. weird is, that ERICSSOn is a pioneer in umts technology, donnow where se gone wrong and didnt used their knowledge to try to be leaders in umts fones.

@boba - I agree with the TV ads . . . last year (and prevoius to that) I've been seeing LOTS of Nokia ads in CNN alone . . . but it has been s turn lately. I was just wondering why still have that S700i model of theirs SHOWN in CNN [addsig]

Actually , Blokia is using the advantage on their ages. Blokia is much older that SE. That really beat SE. most people are used to Blokia. something has to be done to overcome that

OF COURSE YOU ARE RIGHT. And I believe you dont like all the stuff that is offered by Blokia. however, u have fallen to umts. well, you have to admit that there are also stuff which impress you in SE. well, right now I am fan of SE due to Walkman and their camera without forggeting their operations

my typical comment

when have nokia see the red in their profit balance sheet? almost none even on the year of 2003 when SE come back with T610 and the strong emergence of Samsung and LG...it only make a small decrease for nokia profit

SE have been in the red from 2001 until 2003 2nd half....I didn't check the detail yet but if not mistaken....the profit gain in 2004 and 2005 might be able to cover losses from 2001 when SE was formed

IF we have to cover the losses in E/// time....SE is still in a very weak financial position to go on and make huge volume like nokia

Remember...huge volume need huge investment...if you make a mistake...there goes the investment...designing a product is not just only focus on design...you need the whole picture.

Again give SE time. They have one of the best advantage for UMTS devices....tht is the ability to access to hard ware thru ericsson...one of the biggest UMTS equipment maker and they have access to Sony world of digital content (games...movie...music)

BUT again.....money is needed to drive things.

I can see tht SE is coming out more UMTS than what they previously did.
it just show how much $ influence them...with profit...they are able to invest for new phone...tht's why you see 11 model announced just for the first 3 months of 2006

@wilson indded, a forne usage is always individual, but i ment more the fact, that se lost for example in austria the interest of the ppl, for example "3" isnt going to offer here the se models in the next future, k608i was a flop.

The k608 and i IS one of the cheapest 3G phones around.It's not a flop but a full package for a small price.

It is obvious that the Se phone are a bit cheaper compared to Blokia. And that does not mean that their fone are not durable or they are not up to date but that also is the stratege or a mean to conquer the worlds fone market.
