The next big thing?

It's only few weeks back when Sony Ericsson announced the long rumored 5 megapixel cyber shot handset and five other phones. I thought the June 14th announcement would have stopped all the rumors for a while, but I was wrong. That's why I'm writing this article, I'm trying to find out what will be the next big thing. I think we all can agree it won't be a new high-end camera phone. Maybe it will be all in one device or a new smartphone? The all in one device is quite unlikely, because I remember to read some article, where some big guy from Sony Ericsson told that at the moment they don't have plans to bring all in one device.

I think the next big thing might be a new smartphone. I mean really a new smartphone not something like the P1i, because it's just the M600i with a few extra feature. I would like to see new smartphone with big touchscreen and without ordinary keypad. I like the iPhone idea that you have always those keys available you really need.

I think Sony Ericsson should consider some other OS to their phones. I don't say that Symbian UIQ is bad, but it just looks like after many updates there still are a lot of bugs, even according to Sony Ericsson they think the P990i/M600i/W950i is stable enough: "Any remaining issues are of course unfortunate, but we feel that with the level of quality on the latest P990 firmware we now have a good, solid product." I think Linux might be a good choice. Few weeks back I bought Nokia N800 Internet device. N800i has Linux inside and it runs much better that Symbian UIQ 3 on my M600i. Of course it might that it has more memory...

Let’s just wait and see what happens…
