![]() UIQ Technolology announced UIQ 3.3 a few days ago and so far no manufacturer has announced any phones with this platform. However, this does not mean that there won't be Sony Ericsson-branded smart phones running UIQ 3.3 - there will! I had it confirmed earlier today that both manufacturers (Motorola and Sony Ericsson) will be announcing products making use of UIQ 3.3. I'm guessing this will happen within a month's time. BeiBei is one of the unannounced smart phones from Sony Ericsson that is most likely to use UIQ 3.3. Lots of signs point to this as being the platform used. G700 and G900's operating system and platform (UIQ 3.0) includes parts that are very much like BeiBei's platform, so it is not unthinkable that a future firmware update could bring the UIQ 3.3 platform to these two phones (maybe also P1 and W960?). I tested out a beta version of UIQ 3.3 yesterday and it generally seemed pretty stable with a few exceptions. Opera Mobile 9.5 crashed time after time and Bluetooth as well as WLAN wouldn't work (hardware problem?). Other than that I am really liking the UIQ dashboard and HTML widgets. It's a fun feature that'll work great! That's it for now. Will report back when I hear something new -------------------- You can visit my website here, if you want. |

I tested out a beta version of UIQ 3.3 yesterday and it generally ... Sounds interessting. On which plattform did you test it (SDK or real phone?) -------------------- Those of you with an overwhelming fear of the unknown will be gratified to learn that there is no hidden message revealed by reading this signature backwards.

SDK only. No phones out there with it yet, not publicly available anyway
