    I think Nokia domination of the mobile phone market is coming to an end. In
    future they are going to get some stiff opposition (especially from a
    resurgent Sony Ericsson), I mean look at the keypads! (7210) what the hell
    are they thinking of?

    Nokia phones are nothing special, its all fancy clip-on covers and
    ringtones. In five years time Sony Ericsson will be market leader, thanks to
    sexy new phones like the P900

    p.s what every happened to the 7650 (snigger)

    SONY ERICSSON MAKES SEXY PHONES, BUT I HAVE OWNED ALL THEIR LATEST
    RELEASES AND DESPITE HAVING GREAT FEATURES AND A FANTASTIC GUI, THE
    RECEPTION ON THEIR PHONES SUCKS ACROSS THE BOARD!

    (Sony: t68, 616) (Nokia: 6200)

    AND I'VE DONE MY OWN AD HOC CONTROLLED STUDY SWAPPING MY SIM CARD FROM
    MY SONYS TO MY NOKIAS IN MY HOUSE. THE DIFFERENCE IN SIGNAL STRENGTH
    AND THE ABILITY TO CONNECT OR MAKE A CALL WAS SIGNIFICANT!

    GO TO ANY SONY ERICSSON FORUM AND DO A SEARCH ON GOOGLE FOR SONY
    ERICSSON RECEPTION ISSUES - YOU WILL BE OVERWHELMED.

    I WANT SO BAD FOR SONY PHONES TO WORK BECAUSE THEY ARE FEATURE RICH
    AND THOUGHTFULLY DESIGNED ON THE OUTSIDE. THE GUTS? THEY JUST DON'T
    HAVE THE PERFORMANCE!

    NOKIA? SEXY? NO. BUT, YOU CAN'T KILL THEM.

    KIND OF LIKE WIVES - YOU WANT THE HOT, SEXY, DUBIOUS ONE OR THE OLD
    FAITHFUL IN THE PLAIN-JANE WRAPPER?

    PICK 'EM

    I will have to argue the Sony ericsson signal strength difference being
    significant.
    having used the the nokia 3590 over 4 months and the sony T306. i must
    say the T 306 has better signal strength. I am on the AT&T GSM service
    which is not very good in new jersey. I will agree the GUI is great
    sony. i used ericsson while using att TDMA service and the signal
    Strength was second to none. The more expensive nokia may have an edge
    over the pricier ericsson. but i think that something sony will fix soon.

    "Sexy phones"? All Sony-Ericsson phones look like square bricks.
    Including that one. They look like 70s East-European cars, all boxy.

    Say what you will, but looks (as well as brand) also matter to people
    when they are selecting a phone from a selection with similar
    features. Second comes their experience with the brand (ie. if their
    Nokias or Ericssons keep breaking up, they wov not to buy another
    mobile from the same company). Most mobile phone buyers are not techno
    geeks who care only about features they are never going to use anyway.

    Heck, people buy even cars based on color and looks.
