Stand of this company was situated in pavilion 26 occupied a large area. The peculiarity of it is that you couldn’t pass this stand by. A pleasant surprise was made for owners of P800, they could attend a service point, which was located at the corner. During 15-20 minutes you could update firmware of the phone absolutely free, all your data were stored, of course. This place was very popular at the stand. By the way, last year I was impressed by number of communicators 9210 owners, now I noticed people, mainly with P800. Probably this new and prestige model was attracted to middle managers, which are the main active users of such kind of products and the main active visitors of the exhibition.

You could compare smartphones of two colors: standard one and Mineral Blue.

The company emphasized on two new models – T310 and T610. The first one is almost a re-make of Sony Ericsson T300 and it has been already available in some countries. The second handset offers a new level of users’ service. It’s interesting that T310 could be found on the shelves of the shops approximately one week ago, according to sellers it was sold out very quickly (thanks to our reader for the information). A manufacturer stresses that T310 is a middle level phone, which is aimed to young people who are enjoined playing games. For example, a popular game Tony Hawk 's Pro Skater has captivated many potential buyers, below is one of the fans.

We have already written much about T610. So, we’ll add only few details. Companies’ representatives said that they were going seriously update existed software before commercial production. It was pleasing to hear, taking into account that even prototype had quietly stable software. You couldn’t edit all elements of themes. It is presumed that a user would download a whole theme and wouldn’t re-make it. Most likely software to create such themes would be separately available. Now there are programs to create melodies and MMS. You could also see them on the exhibition.

Those, who knew about a headset HBH-60, could try it on the stand. Here you could read more information about it. It was more interesting to observe the other applying of bluetooth. Using the phone, you could control a car, which had a special route. Firstly it was difficult to adapt to such control, but after a while you got used to it and a car motored in the necessary direction.

UMTS-phone Z1010 was introduced only as a dummy. Development cycle was reduced and the companies are often not ready to show working prototypes. On the whole, I was satisfied with this phone, it has an unusual design, internal antenna, but in my opinion it has a rather large depth. On the other hand, it is the most advanced phone in response to technical features. There are no similar ones for today. That is why the depth is not a great shortcoming.

At last few words about bluetooth-headset HBM-30. It combines mp3-player, and usual wire earphones. The advantage to this solution is that you receive a player, which could serve as handsfree device. It will be pleased to those who lead an active life style. The player has a a good sound quality and convenient control. It’s not a secret that developers from Sony took part into the elaborate of this product and they are experts in this kind of devices.

During the exhibition we could interviewed several companies representatives who were responsible for products in Europe. Soon you could read respective interviews.
