well it looks kinda strange but i guess this not the "real" sucessor, probably still the 2g version....
anyway if it's going to get out i will buy it right away because i didn't bought a p900 (lol almost bought a h5550+ t630 but i still have my money  so come on release it lol)
anyway they say it's from a reliable source and i don't know if to believe them or not...
actually i had another look at the pics, and they definetly look fake to me.... though the first pics of z200 weren't much better, but at least they didn't had different layers...

I don't really see why that would have to be a successor to the P900
given the electronic nature of the flip on the P900 (compared with the P800) why could they not provide that as an accessory and perhaps a firmware update?

yes but they could have done that with p800-p900 so if this is real i don't think a fw is possible, especially as i see that the screen isn't square anymore (i mean close mode)
anyway they HAVE to do something new, at least msd pro if nothing else, lol |

what i've written in clubse:
Sid from MobileBurn has gotten the scoop about a possible upgrade of the P900 to be launch in Q3 this year. A couple of computer-generated pictures tell that the most important upgrade is the addition of a full Qwerty keyboard in the back of the flip keypad. If it is comfortable to use, this "P910" or P900 upgrade (code-named Layla) will bring a fair competition with the other Qwerty smartphones (Treo 600, BenQ P50, Blackberry...). Other rumoured new features are Push-To-Talk and Wireless Village. This lack of new impressive features (still has VGA camera) and the fact that the design of the device could remain the same of P900 leads to THE question: Is it going to be a totally new model or an optional firmware/hardware upgrade for current P900 users?

if this is true, i'll never buy it! doesn't worth the money to "upgrade " ! The real p900 successor will have 1,3 mp camera and flash ,wi fi, etc, or Sony Ericsson will go down...Motorola a1000 will be the new king!

I still stick with my original though that what we have been shown so far could be achieved by an accessory only
maybe when more info is forthcoming it will be more interesting than that

oh come on, no one is talking about this being any successor. it is a small upgrade and if we're lucky we'll be able to buy the new flip for say 50€. who knows sony ericsson's approach.

I would have thought that this will be released as an add on / upgrade for current owners, and then maybe incorportated into batched manfatured from then on. It certainly doesn't seem enough to warrent the release of a whole new model. It's very similar to the ideas for a gamepad that I posted in the "My
Dream" thread. To be honist, I'd prefer the gamepad to a small querty keyboard, but then I use always the sylus anyway.
PS Can someone explain what "Wireless Village" is, as mentioned by chungagoring.
