A couple of interesting pieces of information came my way today, each about a seperate Sony Ericsson product. Let's take them in turn ...
Satio
The word on the street is that Satio is about to be pulled from sale in the UK again by Carphone Warehouse, Britain's largest mobile retailer. The handset is apparently still on sale at the moment, but according to my sources not for long. The reason? Software issues (again). Orange will apparently start to offer half price contracts on their Satio units to try and shift what stock they have left. If this proves to be correct then it would be the second time that Satio has been taken off UK shelves and it might very well be the last ...
X10 & Vivaz
The X10 has appeared on Carphone Warehouse's internal system, although no stock exists for it and no prices have been setup yet. This usually means that the handset in question is around a month away, which would fit in with a late March/early April release. Coming sooner, apparently, is Vivaz, which has also appeared on Carphone Warehouse's system. However, in the case of Vivaz pricing has been setup with the handset free on £25/month 2 year contracts. Given that pricing exists Vivaz could appear in stores as early as next week although a time-scale of 2 or 3 weeks is more likely.

This is quite a bad thing for Sony Ericsson...They didn't learn and now they pay the price. Big time

Would anyone care to explain what these "Magical" software issues are? You mean a product that had a problem was offered a fix, was back in the store and then after a couple of months, another problem "Magically" appeared in the software?

How exactly does that work? Who exactly are the voices behind the "Word on the streets"? And why is it that Satios sold elsewhere have no problems whatsoever?
It's pretty easy to spread FUD on the internet. Sad to see you guys succumb to the same without even verifying the matter first.

If Satio gets removed from sale again then that's probably the last we'll see of it. I expect it will be replaced with Vivaz.

The word on the street comes from sources at Carphone.
Bessie Braddock: Winston you are drunk. Churchill: Yes, but in the morning I shall be sober, and you will still be ugly.

My Satio work's a treat, I picked it up pretty much the week of release and have had no problems. It's hard to imagine the problems are that bad.

To be fair my brother's Satio is working absolutely fine too.
