    by the way, is the word Satio an acronymn of some sort? because as far as i can remember, sony is fond of acronyms like vaio, clie, bravia, etc. the only thing that doesn’t have an acronymn amongt its product is qualia. don’t know with the sony ericsson though if they do the same thing.

    @john,wha: a leg and an arm. maybe two arms.

    its a sony product, and targeted at iPhone-gravitating users so what can you expect.

    disclaimer: my phone is a SE K618i. :)

    ciao!

    So okay, it is a 12 mp camera but what about video recording? And it is so thick…. I think ill settle for a standalone camera…. Phones with decent MP is better if it is slimmer… Just my two cents on the issue

    i’m still enjoying my C905.

    all this talk about megapixels makes my head hurt, if they put a tiny sensor and lens on it; it’ll look good on your phone but as soon as you blow it up on your pc you’ll see how bad it is.

    i thought it would the first phone to use Symbian foundation OS?

    would symbian foundation OS be the same as s60 5th?

  15. Gravatar Icon tantan replied on Jun 23rd, 2009 at 11:41 am (15)

    will the camera lens of the Satio be Carl Zeiss?because if it isn’t Carl Zeiss then the 12.1 megapixel camera will be useless and pictures will have poor quality

  19. Gravatar Icon shinn replied on Jun 28th, 2009 at 8:33 pm (19)

    uhhm.. can you give estimation of the price for Satio.. Ive read about Satio and i saw (Satio and Satio a) WTF? is there two versions? hahaha. really love the features.. i hope you can give estimation of the price.. :D

  20. Gravatar Icon dimsirch replied on Jul 9th, 2009 at 9:56 am (20)

    I guess it won’t have a Carl Zeiss lens. However, image quality is still great. Look here http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_satio_idou-review-358p5.php

    There are two versions. I reckon that they have to do that because US carriers have weird frequency bands, way different from carriers elsewhere in the world.

    This will come with S60 5th ed instead of the Symbian Foundation OS due to time constraints.
