Guys!!!
Its the one phone to rule them all!!! LOL, im crazy, i dont care about the price, the moment its out im getting it, with a blind fold.
As for the price im going to speculate that its going to be around 32-35K to match the HTC. Arggg, i dont care, i havent bought a new phone in the past 4 years, and the last phone was a SE aswell, T68I, and its been good to me all this while. Im sure this will aswell.

Im waiting for the next movie, The hobbit...
@rPoK im not sure what an iphone killer is? Oh hang, on what is the iphone again? and whats so great about the iphone again? Im really not sure. And dont flame me, coz i just dont see whats so good about iphone, when
i) its tied to a provider (and not available here)
ii) can you change the battery?
iii) Does it have any technology that is new in it or does it just carry recycled tech (in which case it doesnt even do that, no?)

It's called unlocking.
If you think what's the point of unlocking, well... it's a tech community here and this is exactly the kind of stuff we love to do.
II) can you change the battery?
The most used anti-iPhone quote ever !! But frankly, realistically... how ofter do you change the batteries on cellphone? In my 5 years of cellphone usage and 6 different models, I never got battery problems before changing the cell.
Offcourse it's good to have an option to change it, I won't deny. But I personally feel that it's overhyped, overburned point.
iii) Does it have any technology that is new in it or does it just carry recycled tech (in which case it doesnt even do that, no?)
Multitouch... never seen in any cellphone before, or even notebooks.
But I do agree that it doesn't have any groundbreaking technology or something entirely revolutionary tech invented in it. But what it does, is that it take available technology and incorporate it in innovative ways. Never seen a cellphone making use of Accelerometer or Proximity sensor in such practical ways.
It's alright not to like iPhone, to some people it's not very practical device to use. Everyone has their own needs and their solution, so their opinions (I love iPhone, but right now I don't NEED one. my iPod for music needs and Z6 for my phone needs, are just fine).
Not trying to start an argument here, but sometimes I get this feeling that some people will hate it just for a fashion. "Hey, everyone loves iPhone... but I hate it cause it's cool to be different." Meh... for the heck of it.
For the record, I've always been SE fan my cellphone needs. Just recently I bought moto phone, cause I can't see a phone from SE that matches the enigma of T610i or K750i. The way those phones were amazing for their times, when they launched. I think Xperia might be that next step... might be !!

^^ Thanks for that. All that i can see from an apple iphone, is that touch screen thing, and people go gagagoogoo over that. Hey sure its cool and all, but am i willing to part with 22 - 25K because of that, hmmm i dont think so.
Price vs Performance does it live up to the expectation? I need a phone where i can load the apps that i create (im a SE),watch / stream movies/music, play games occasionaly. Im skipping the make a call part because thats kinda obvious.
Anyways, no you are not starting an argument at all. And yea i think i fall in that category that you mention. I think ill be here till i see an iphone, which is unlocked by default, allows me to change batteries, and has some new tech in it (HEY ATLEAST INCLUDE 3G or a freaking GPS) (Oh wait, isnt that the Xperia lol). Yep, i think im going to be in this category for a while. =P
Grrr this wait is annoying, im going to go freeze myself now (yea im a south park freak aswell).

i phone is a lot more than multi touch ..
have you ever seen the screen of the i phone ..very few cell phones in the same price bracket come close to the killer screen.
and its a ton times faster then any nokia s60 phone..
and u really dont need to spend 24k on it..its official price in US is >17k
even in indian grey markets its now available for 20k approx..
it totally depends on the needs of the users..if you need some good
music,movies on an awesome screen ..with 8GB\16GB of high storage.
in short if you need something like ipod+phone ..den its the iphone..
if you are looking for a total business phone..or more of a camera phone ..then you need to look elsewhere..
you just cant say this phone rocks and this sucks...
every phone is made to serve a particular crowd
anyways a few TE members have written reviews on iphone which tell you its pros and cons..if you want you can go through it.

First of all why compare diffenrent genres of Phones?
Iphone is for people who would love to scroll up and down the phone browse pictures watch youtube, Show off to friends, Its more for college goers Not for serious business users. Period.
Iphone in its present state cannot match WM phone Just because of that extra screen size. When it comes to WM phones we have so many brands to choose from. Diff processor, ROMS and above all Apps.I majorly depend on third party apps for day to day use. Another good thing abt WM phones is that I can intall Touch interface in my non touch interface. Do this, tweak that.
I got bored of Iphone in a month. WM users feel themselves Jailed with Iphone. So no Iphone for me until may be another model of Iphone is launched. And please people stop searching for "Iphone Killer for crying out loud".

Well the iphone is definitely no business minded phone.
And most people who hate the iphone have never used it ! I tried the Ipod touch the other day and was simply floored by the size, clarity and useabilty of that amazing screen. Which phone in that price range has a comparable screen ???
If you want apps and functionality get a WM or Symbian Phone.
