P1000 info
(25 nov 2004) UCSE reports this about the P1000.
Having finished the 2004 season of product presentations, in which Sony Ericsson introduced 7 new phones to the market, all expectations now point to what's rumored to be an exciting 2005, with at least 8 new models. We are all logically looking forward to what should come to life before the Cebit in March, but we will see no P910 subsitute so soon. An official source confirmed to Club Sony Ericsson that there will certainly be a "P1000" (improbable name) with some of the stuff we are expecting such as WiFi and megapixel camera... but —and this is the news— it will not be a 3G phone. There must be of course a marketing reason not to make a P800-concept based UMTS smartphone yet, but we enthusiasts will be dissapointed without fail with this decision. Other exciting entertainment-focused phones (3G and not) should keep the thrill up however.
USEP: so it looks like Sony Ericsson will only make another small upgrade for the current Pxxx phone. Many people want everything thats availeble right now in the phone, but I can understand what Sony Ericsson is doing. They want to keep the size of the phone and add new stuff, if they would add everything at once the phone would be much bigger and have a diffirent design. As time goes by chips and components become smaller so you can add more stuff into a phone without the phone becomming bigger.
For the P1000 we hope that Sony Ericsson will give us a 2MP cam with double flash (like on there V800, this doesn't mean the cam has to be rotatable), up to 2G MSD pro, a more powerfull battery because WIFI will use alot of power, long range bluetooth and a backlight for the querty keyboard so people can use it in darkplaces.
