this is the rumous.... 80% comfirm replacement for Z1010. should called Z610.

Ericsson never merge with Sony la... either way Sony never buy Ericsson over also.

this is a muture agreement from both party that Ericsson will split thier mobile telecommunication device technology out and formed a company which Sony will fund it.

so Sony/Ericsson do not have any direct ownership from Sony Ericsson A/B Communication. Sony still run thier own bzness and Ericsson still around setting up telecommunication for others.

Sony Ericsson run by its own. it agree that Ericsson will come out with the technology and Sony will fund and make sales.

so when Sony Ericsson making profit. it will split to Ericsson and Sony. that what i always say... The best European Technology joint venture with 1 of the best branding in the world.

ugly~~~~~~ so ah beng...
