I bet some of you have checked out the JavaOne conferences, but obviously no-one has gone through them in depth. In on of the videos, Rikko Sakaguchi at Sony Ericsson actually leaks an upcoming phone, well, sort of… After having showcased the video below at the JavaOne conference, Sakaguchi says “actually… you saw the device in the video? That’s something that we’re going to launch this year.” However! If we look closely at a few screenshots from the video, you’ll notice that there’s actually two devices, and not one. Could this be different prototypes for one phone? I mean, Sakaguchi did say “the device”.
Remember, Rikko Sakaguchi is the Senior Vice-President and Head of Product & Application Planning at Sony Ericsson, so it doesn’t get much more official than this.
I must remind you though that this video is almost 2 years old, so a few things might have changed. Now, feel free to let your minds wander.
The last photo of the upcoming BeiBei from SEMCBlog was posted just yesterday, and it looks exactly as I had been told with beautiful markings on the backside. What do you think?
Maximys over at SEMCBlog just posted the second photo of the upcoming BeiBei. It’s a Japenese inspired handset, and it in my opinion the colour combination is very cool. The red funny looking thing is the stylus.
… and this time it’s from SEMC Blog, where author Maximys has gotten his hands on three exclusive photos of the upcoming BeiBei. Today he’s posting one, and he has said that he’ll be posting a photo of the slim side as well as the beautiful back soon. We’ll be waiting!
Just wanted to pop a note that our review of the HSDPA-enabled Sony Ericsson K660 will soon be published (apologize that it’s taken quite some time, but my schedule is quite booked these days). It’ll probably end up around 2,500 words or so, meaning that it won’t be as in-depth going as the W890 review, but hopefully you’ll enjoy it and put it at good use anyway
Also, I should be getting a Z770 from Sony Ericsson any day now (update: Monday or Tuesday). Or at least, I think so While this is basically a clamshell version of the K660, I am still in doubt what to do with it. If I should simply do a long comparison of the two, or whether I should go for a full fledged review of it. Any ideas?
Have fun in the meantime
PS. Thought I might want to shortly mention what’s happening on the rumours’ front of things. Well, Sony Ericsson is currently working up a Walkman version of the C902 with some extra tasty features. We might get to see this a lot earlier than expected… Wow, what a cliff-hanger!
It seems like BeiBei is going to be announced fairly soon - at least if you were to judge on the amounts of recent leaks. This time, the leaks show a brown/black version of this very thin smart phone running UIQ 3.3. I do not think it’ll be a Walkman phone, but let’s see about that.
