Sony Ericsson Announces Flood Of Phones
Why not Verizon?
I have wondered the same thing, anyone know who is gettin these? are they coming to the U.S.? if so prolly cingular 😁
...
who or what is "prolly" Is there a new subsidiary of Cingular named "prolly Cingular?" The word is probably, with 2 "b's"

hey, thanks for the giggle....I was starting to think this was a "tough forum" (ala Rodney Dangerfield)

Sony Ericsson does not have an American CDMA division. They tried back in the day but decided to stick to GSM. I doubt we will ever see any more CDMA sony ericsson phones
here is a link to a news article from 2003 about it

Sony Ericsson does make CDMA phones (including EVDO models) for KDDI in Japan. as far as i know these are the only CDMA models SE makes or has made since the ill fated T608.

Voice Over IP - internet telephone. Like Skype or Vonage. (The answer is far more complicated than that, but that points you in the right direction).

Well, to answer your question, Sony Ericsson has an exclusive contract with Cingular. They also have some smaller companies like Cincinatti bell, and other regional partners...but /cingular does they lions share of their business.

When did that happen? I was aware that Cingular had an exclusive deal with Nokia, when did they switch to SE?
The answer to the question is relatively simple and Rich has already touched upon it. SE stopped making CDMA handsets for North America a while ago. Some SE GSM handsets are available on Cingular and most SE GSM handsets can be used with different levels of functionality (i.e no 3G with some) on T-Mobile USA.

I was told by a sony ericsson rep that cingular had an exclusive deal with SE. That could explain why we havent seen anything from them on TMO USA since the t610. Cingular did at one time have an exclusive deal with nokia that allowed only candybar phones manufactured by nokia to be sold(with the exception of the sam c207), but that has since expired as far as I know (hence the ROKR SLVR and L2 from moto)
