Really is it cancelled? I don't bealive it, Sony Ericsson gave it into sale and their machines were optimized for producing W705, I think it would be bery pricey to cancel this phone during producing

Phones shouldn't be judged by their cameras.
The W705 features Wifi and one of the most advanced audio enhancement technologies for god's sake. And a relatively big screen, in addition to a metallic body.

RRP over here is slightly over G705's. I think you can estimate prices from G705's market entry.

I was worried it might come in higher than G705 price. Maybe G705 will come down in price when the arrives? Here's hoping...

So this thing will have an actual audio chip? Or is it just software audio enhancement?
It shouldn't be that expensive, its screen is average size, wi-fi is now in even low budget Nokia S60s, and so is GPS, so il be shocked if it costs a lot, but then again, this is SE.

The X1 is different because it's a smartphone and they don't tend to have good cameras. The W705 is a midrange phone and you can NORMALLY tell by a phones camera what market segment it has been positioned in. Quite a lot of phones have wifi and it doesn't make the phone expensive. As the W902 has a 5 mp camera and they have brought this out afterwards with 3.2 and no af plus the fact it is a W7xx not W9xx I presumed the phone would be not as high end using the camera as a guidence. And as for the audio enhansement I've heard people say it's all down to the headphones but that's just what I've heard.
