@razec
I'm not sure TBH. Will ask for more information 
BIG UPDATE:
- Swivels are dead; at least for this year, meaning that the Adriana is either slider or fake.
- Re-linked Lindsay photos.
- Lindsay could be named S500 or Exxx.
- S Series reborn for sliders.
- BRAVIA series is vapourware like the Handycam series. Features will be merged into other series.
- May be delay in Elena release (till end of year).
- Cut down in number of phones released (to avoid too many variations). May explain the possible cancellation of Lindsay.
- Shinobu could be for American market as well.
- Shinobu will have similar specifications to the Z750.
- S500
Mid range slider. Could be Lindsay.
- May 8 announcement could include 5 phones. Three UIQ (one
 and two business), one high end (maybe Shinobu), and one low end. Sofia could be possible sixth, but doubtful.
- True P990 successor
Thinner that P990 with a flip, but this phone is really for next year's thread!

if SE knew what was good for them, as far as keeping customers who actually pay attention to this stuff, from wandering they would give us sophia. from a purely business stand point it makes good sense to at LEAST let us know if the phone will see the light of day. i should hope that everything will work in the end.

S series was used for Swivel though? S700i?

1. The only UIQ phone announced this year will be Elena. The name P700 is not finalized yet. Lizzy was scrapped because between Elena and Lizzy, the only difference is the camera, one has it, the other doesn't.

Isn't that contradictive?

@ Rifqi_Aziz : I think so too 
Shaliron no offense but I think you are not so critic recently than you used to be before.We all became too easy fish these days after such an info boom,but YOU ARE THE MAN  to hold our "read'n'think its true" thing down.
So,its very hard to decide what will come but SE can't release only low-mid-end all the time.They have to make some new researches and put the technology in the flagship phones and afterwards in the hi-mid ones and so on.Not that they will make such a high profit with the hiends,they just have to become "acquainted" with the new thingies,at least I think so."Well-handled" technologies are what I am buying their phones for.I really don't need some of the fancy things of N***A or etc,but I do need some other like decent battery life,speed and stability.And when I choose a Cybershot or Walkman phone,its because I know their camera/player are more advanced than the others and have the above mentioned good bat life and etc.IMO if they stop "acquainting",after some time they will drop the quality of all the production.And if now they are making first phones mostly for the third world people,someday these people will need second phone which has to be better specced,so their market share will "go up" in the mid--mid-high end.They should be prepared for that.
So I don't think Elena will be the only UIQ phone this year,at least my beloved Maria should come with her.
Sorry for the long post,I just felt I must write all of it. |

The candybar UIQ walkman(W950i's successor,Maria) is supposed to hit the shelves at the end of the year.Regarding the SE new politics it will probably be announced not far before the release,in other words - Q3 IMO. This UIQ walkman which is probably coming sooner is said to be shinobu - the successor of the W900i,and it will be a slider(if we believe swivels are dead),and I hope it will have the Walkman 3.0 player(if it has it,SE developers will have time to improve the software and implement it in Maria) |

I spoke to Vodafone last week about getting an upgrade on my phone to a new SE model. I asked about the K810 and they said it'll be in their warehouses in 2 weeks (from the 16 Apr when called). I also asked about the W580 but on their system they said I'd be waiting till end of Q3/beginning of Q4 before they can get it to me. Does this mean that  are not following the short announcement->release time as a strict rule for their releases? If the lady I spoke to at Vodafone is anything to go by, yes. |

Well on the Z750i and W580, SE did say Q3 2007. Some phones came out right away like the W880i and K550i. But others like the W610i took a few months. K810 is coming out about a month after the W610i came out which came out ~2 months after the K550i.
May 8, I hope SE delights us with great products. |

Ricky D as bodeh6 said they don't follow it always - sometimes its due to problems/improvements of the phones,but usually for marketing reasons.I personally think Maria will be announced in Q3(maybe the beginning of Q4) because she is not ready yet and because end of the year is a typical peak buytime for mobile phones.Many people want a new phone for Xmas or the new year and if SE releases the phone in November,lets say,the price for it in end of December will still be high.But thats the time in which people are inclined to spend more money on mobiles.If SE releases it in September for example,its price will have dropped more or less by the end of the year,which will lead to some money losses for SE. |
