Nice specs but the aesthetics are poor. It looks either like a toy or it justs look cheap. It will also be better if the camera has a cover. hope SE will improve upon the look and make this available by quarter 1 of 2010. hmmm... Would it be possible for this phone to run android too?

      Virtual, 07 Nov 2009Who invented OLED? I ignore that information.It was invented back in 1979 at the Eastman Kodak Research Center. Then everyone joined in it's development, However there is NO mention of sony in it's initial stage of experiments. Kodak still holds that patent.

I said "everyone" - including a person who called him self SE fans who copy/paste over and over again with the same words. And also not only in SE forum but all the forums. Did you get it? Be a fan or not to be, doens't mean that we can do anything annoying others who wants to read the quality comments.

                    well that makes sense but you said "SONY ERICSSON - Japan, technology powerhouse, great potential, but that's about it..and they will stay like this." than SE sounds the best choice because a phone has to do with technology, and technology is all what we want

                    I SAY: The "best choice" is SE? With 5%? So, nokia with ~40% must be the worst choice... Right?

I don't think our comments or debate will ever reach SE. Else we would have seen much improvements. If I know some information or if I think somone is posting something wrong or I have a different opinion, I comment.

If you are asking people that you consider 'SE Haters' and paid representative of other companies, posting anti-SE comments to behave, why don't you say the same thing to those so called SE fans too who are copy-pasting same thing in SE's favor? Have you seen the X10 page? I don't see you asking those SE fan to stop posting the same thing? Because once I have a point and posted it, there will some one else who wont read anything and post some silly comments again. Then it will start all over. If you think those who criticize SE are getting paid by rival companies, then what do you think of those guys who are basically 'promoting' SE, are they getting paid too? If there is no constructive criticism, this place will be heaven of misinformation. I don't think that would be "quality comments" as you suggested.

They all - including you -talking the same thing again and again. If you want to complaining. Please. You are welcome. It's your right. But if someone repeated the same issue on and on with the same word. We are not def, we are not blind, and we can read. Imagine if one person copy/paste the comments lets say 10 times in an hour (Im not pointing at you). What happen in a week? Just post once is enough I think. This is must in every forum. Not just SE forum. Because people clicking comments box to read the quality comments. The advantages or the disadvantages of every phones from many people opinions. I hope everyone read this and start posting whats good in every forum.
