More and more company is making profit out of Android.

I'm guessing more and more choices for consumer, the price will be very competitive too.

Look at what happened after SGT official launched... more 7" pad is coming out.

Sony Ericsson make profits from Android.

Some consumers look for the Sony Ericsson brand only. They don't care if it runs Android or not. If you're not knowledgeable about Android and don't care about updates, the Xperia phones are still quite attractive.

it's really a miracle that people are still buying them.. the ROM update support is almost non-existant, people are all moving to 2.2, X10 still waiting for 2.1...

Sony Ericsson just do not give consumer the feeling of.... software update.

But their walkman phone can really sell though~~

they are too obsessed about their timescape/mediascape
that makes upgrading to newer version more difficult as need to redo all the customization

"Walkman phone" is just another marketing bull..
not like other phones cant play MP3...
Classic case being K750i vs W800i, essentially same phone, but one priced higher than the other because of the name Walkman..
The ROM is even interchangeable.. LOL at those who spent the extra money for the walkman name..

The Sony Ericsson W995 is the best walkman phone to date. I have no regrets buying it. It's a bloody practical phone - very light at 113g but has WiFi, GPS, and 8.1MP camera with flash. Also very small and light, only problem is that browsing is a pain.

Well, not everyone's obsessed with the latest features, plus there's always a workaround, like apps2SD can already be applied on 2.1, no need 2.2, not that it's even a must have as X10 already has a monster size internal memory which I still find hard to fill. For me the latest version hype is just like Walkman marketing strategy, there are advantages but nothing deal-breaking. Plus, many SE fans would choose X10 for the camera and music which SE has extensive expertise on and couldn't care less about wifi tethering etc.
