I think it's stupid to be that upset over the touch-thing. If it's not being marketed as a fully fledged Touchphone, then we should be glad it's there. Many japanese phones utilizes touch like this. 
Well not sure about me... i just feel upset to see a capacitive screen get under utilized this way.
that's why I said....why not just go for resistive....which can drive the phone to be more affordable as limited touch cannot utilize everything .... unless there's still surprises as they continue to improve thing...just like how they did ...a major revamp for C905 in feb.
but to be a be hypocritical... I might still choose Aino ... i cannot find those deskstand and headset info on accs page...so it seem like those are dedicated stuff for Aino?
that is the stuff i love to have beside just a phone |

Really stupid. A2 accelero meter in media menu and touch screen function in anio media menu. Always reducing the software quality by upgrading platform. I cant forgive this bec its basic. I can use my media menu without touch functionality is it not?
SE concentrating on lil things missing basic main things. If it doesn't have touch screen people wouldn't have criticized much as now. Or atleast the D- pad in front could make a sense. Pissed off.

Do you use a slider?
i do. Every day. i open it for calls and use the numerical keypad for fast access of menus. Trust me, it's faster than any touch UI. The only place where I wanted touch in the first place was for media and web. Now this phone has promised the former and we have to wait and see the latter. I don't see what the big problem is.
Of course i like slider thats wy i'm using w910. And thats makes possibility for bigger screen. But its weird to slide out the phone just for navigations. We use soft keys and d-pad more than text keys.i need d-pad in front thats all about.
We are not getting bigger screen mobiles like this often so we don't have a choice for choosing other models among SE. |

It uses MediaGO, which means whatever movie you have would be converted to a compatible form before it is transferred to the phone.
For once, I wish people on forums would start looking at what IS there instead on going on a hunt for what ISN'T. Because that is why people on the net would never, EVER be satisfied. |

Honest people look for what they need mainly, not whats that isn't have.
If both in controversy then they will not be satisfied.
So its the intelligence of any company to satisfy the customer needs instead of judging themselves and creating devices.
Its my opinion please don't blame me. But still i like this device except the d-pad underneath. I don't forget to mention xperia has d-pad in front and bigger screen too. |

Then it's quite obvious you should wait for the next Xperia. Perhaps this isn't the device for you.
Personally, I find it great that SE launched 3 phones that feel remarkably different from each other (Ok, one is Symbian, but still). Nobody can blame them for copy/paste anymore. Another complaint was that the tech seen in Japan is not seen in worldwide SE models. Well, guess what? the Aino looks 'n feels a LOT like the Japanese phones (A factor that I love). Lets not forget motion gaming in Yari, which was another japan only deal.
The Aino is everything I wanted in my next phone. I hope it has touch support in the browser, as it'd make life easier for me. Sure, it doesn't have everything under the sun, a kitchen sink and a cellar to lock the mother-in-law away, but it does have all the right bits to keep me happy.
Looks like I found my next phone.

somewhere it was said that you can't use the touch screen to browse the menus,
but only for media and camera features ! 
I don't believe that for a second. That would mean that you need the slider out for everything because the navigation keys are on the slider. Sony Ericsson wouldn't do that. I'm very sure that what you heard wasn't true.
It waits to be seen, but it is looking true, even the Press Release on SE website says the following:
"Sony Ericsson today showcases Aino. Get the best of two worlds with the keypad combined with an intuitive touch UI in media mode"
I think they missed another trick here, I doubt it would be that much to include touch in the main menu and keep the keypad for texting and stuff.
Cheers,

Even i don't need touch ui everywhere thats ok. But for me missing thing is d-pad in front thats it i dont even care about 3'5mm.
Then does this phone supports 31hrs of music playbak with wireless headset? I think its only for device right? Then what about video recording?
I like the wireless headset will it be available separately? Does it have display as HBH DS980?
Sorry for the killing quests! |

Again, I don't see what the problem is with the D pad inside. I've always found the 2 key unlock routine very cumbersome and sliding the handset out is always quicker.
As for the other questions, we all would have to wait till things get clearer. |

I think what would completley put me of is the main menu itself wasnt touchscreen, because i wouldnt want to slide my phone up to press menu then click media then slide it back down to use the touch function, same applies to the camera as well. |
