I could see a PSP/PDA crossover device from Sony in a couple of years. SE take on a N-Gage? Hopefully by then the PSP will have kill the N-Gage. Thats if it annit killed itself.

Week sales (and revenues) from the unpopular P800/900 series +the imminent release of Nokia's top performer 7700 . . . No wonder Sony wants to 'throw in the towel'

I am not sure if you have any clue for what you said. How can you say that P800 & P900 is not popular unlike the N7700 which is not even available yet. |

I don't think that Sony will leave the Symbian platform soon. On the contrary: Quote:
| Sony aims to fill the Clie void with new advanced handsets from Sony Ericsson, its cell phone venture with Sweden's Ericsson, and a new handheld game machine, the PlayStation Portable (PSP). |

From Reuters .
And I don't think  is to put PalmOS on their handsets. Symbian is far more powerful as smartphone OS. |

Hopefully this will free up resources to work on the Symbian platform software and increase quality and reliability of it, which would transfer to better phones.
