Yeah, Sony Ericsson has just announced the launch of a few more models of mobile phones & they really got me excited. Imagine a candy bar form factor mobile phone with a footprint not too far off my present SE K750 & with so much more features packed into it!!! 3.2 megapixels!!! It's almost like having a real camera in your mobile. When I got the SE K 750, i was elated with the picture quality & the functionality of their wonderfully-designed mobiles. I guess they have one-upped on themselves & achieve such a major breakthrough. Nothing compared to Samsung's 7 (SEVEN!!!) megapixel camera mobilt with 3x (THREE TIMES!!!) optical (BLOODY OPTICAL!!!) zoom, but I personally feel SE mobiles are much more comfortable to use than their korean counterparts. I have used Ericsson (before they merged with Sony's handphone department), Motorola (back in the Startac days), Nokia (a few models, not just one), Samsung (which was also my first camera handphone), & presently, SE. So I do know a little of what I'm talking about when it comes to user interface.

Must save money!!! Must resist urge to buy new handphone, especially when the K750 is still in good working conditions (the joystick sometimes give me problems & the urge to just smash the phone onto the concrete floor). Sigh

Ja neh...
