I was just looking at the SE page for the W910i, and you all know that under "See The Phone" there is a demo video of the phone featuring a ridiculously stupid looking guy.

Anyway, in this demo, has anyone noticed that the phone is running UIQ? So does anyone know, was the W910i originally intended to be a UIQ phone, or is this just a stupid mistake by SE's video designers?

THIS is the link to the video.

Yeah i noticed that as well dude but i don't believe W910 proto used UIQ before W910 hardware isn't ideal for a performance hungry platform like UIQ imho esp. when we talk about the RAM wherein UIQ needs 128Mb and W910 only has 1.5mb on it

Yeah, I thought of that, but then thought maybe they seriously downgraded it when they decided to put A200 on instead!

you would think that they changed the RAM when they changed the platform, dont you?

that's a demo video. Please take a look at preloaded demo tour of W880i. You'll notice it run Walkman player 1.0. See demo video of K610i from SE website, the UI media player is similar to one of K750i. You know K610i's media player is like Walkman player 1.0.
I guess W910i never runs UIQ.

It is a possiblity that both the w910 and k850 were originally intended to be uiq. You can tell the w910 from that demo video and the k850 from the soft keys. But who knows.
