But how come they still wanna take the W42S design?

u have a point there.... but let me ask u... since so most of us drive out to places we want to go.... will ya choose to walk from ya house to a place which is 20km away from u just to look different from the rest and call that cool?

actually there is one design SE can apply to its clamshell wan...check this pic...see the direction keys...

no wonder W900i was codenamed Sakura~ closely related to Japanese culture de~

i seriously hope this rumor is true. there ain't rumors for no reason. and so far all SE rumors also became true.

why not? America have McD and they have almost the same menu like us as well right? same things... Sony Ericsson Japan is still part of the Sony Ericsson International. maybe they used different telecommunication technology. but japan are still on earth right?

if this model getting very popular in japan and Sony Ericsson International might see the potential on it. they will definately make it one of thier product in somewhere. it might not be the exact same. but they will make some changes and bring it on to the rest of the world.

Yeah...what fulat said is true...one of the example will be the S700i ...the design actually copy from SE japan SO505i for nttdocomo....

clamshell? it's either slider or swivel la...

it's bulky it seems.... 24 mm!

i don't think so they want this.... the direction key wasn't thier usual design. even the joystick seem to get complain from many... but they insist to have it from T610 until now.

that's thier icon. like the P-series keypad. even until the gonna release P990i. they still insist to go with a keypad flip. it's practically thier style which they wanna maintain at least 1 design which make them proud and identical from the rest. if u ever notice.... since thier first clamshell Z200i or Z600I release. all thier clamshell are designed to have exchangable faceplate.

this make them proud~!

no matter what, please preserve the design. the design is fabulous~

if it's something like 903sh where it is available only if we 'smuggle' it, then it'll be rare.

here is my japanese friend's Sony Ericsson phone~



in case you're wondering, no that's not porn. that's someone sleeping~



main point~ to let you guy see the jog dial keypad~ or whatever you call it?!

bump so that people know i edited my previous post and pics are uploaded~

this looked a bit like Z520i

Japan version of Z530i?

PS: I wonder how is it look like for the K750 Japan version...

yeap it does, doesn't it?! and btw, the camera sucks. i took a pic with it but got me face in it so no show.

and btw, although camera sucks, there are abundance of options lah. feels like a symbian. can type word documents and such de.

i dunno what it is. too bad the jappie babe sucks in English.

Then how you ask from her to snap those pics? While she was in the shower?

u have a point there too..its juz like d ipod craze few years back...d one dat has an ipod is d coolest in town...nowdays,having an ipod is a normal thing...agree?

Why don't I complaint... want good phones ,stay in Japan and live there...

Anyway, it is good to see the SE W42S in MAS market

hmmm, a lot of people also complain why 10 megapixel Samsung not available in Malaysia.

so no point lah. there are a lot of other SE Japan models out there whom we do not know.

and another thing i like about SE walkman phones~ the earbuds that comes with it are always comfortable with the ears. look at the E398 earphones. eeeeeeeew, so big. later the ear hole also get bigger.

nah... ipod still a youth icon for now.... some youth told me that.. to be a youth nowadays u need some cool gadgets. 1 of the must buy gadget is ipod.
