Am I the only one that has noticed that the Z700 has been removed from "Coming Soon" on SonyEricsson.com?
At least from the ones I've checked:

Sweden, UK & Ireland, Suomi (Finland) and France

it went from all the "coming soon" of the specified countries but not the P800.... maybe because Z700 has been delayed and P800 will be released soon!!

Why can't give straight answers and tell everyone when these phones are to be released, and something a bit better than Q3 or Q4, we want actual dates

Z700 also gone from the communicasia website below too, very likely that they are canceling the launch of Z700

Why would Z700 be canceled? It is still on www.sonyericsson.com . It has nothing to do with communicasia, Z700 was announced long before it (the same time as P800 IIRC).

Hey.......its not on any of the sony ericsson website now......all of the countries's sony ericsson website I went to, its been taken off from the coming soon section.......and its also taken off from communiasia site (was there before).........so I think there's a big chance they cancel the launch of Z700

In my opinion the Z700 doesn't stand a change against the P800! this message was posted with a R380

I don't think it's cancelled...more likely, it's soon to be released on the markets.

On the other hand, you never know with SE...anyone remembers the T36?

Yeah.....if Z700 has been cancelled, then I would expect they are going to launch a new phone with much better spec. e.g. Z700 version with 4096 colour, Tr-band etc.........

When I look at the design of the T200, T300, T600 an P800 I can see a format, a way of design. The Z700 doesn't have these physical features. I think that the Z700 was presented on a moment that SE did not have common understanding yet how there product for the western market should look. Two companies that go into a joint venture with total different history can have growing pains. Killing the Z700 would be a signal that common understanding has been established inside of SE. Just see what happens ! P800 will be a killer

It seems like they are cancelling the launch of Z700........everything about Z700 has been gone from the sony ericsson website, like press release, communiasia site etc...........I have already e-mail sony ericsson about whether they are cancelling the launch of Z700.......hopefully can hear from them soon !!!
