Interesting read here. Among others, this new UIQ 3 smartphone will bring :
- GPS-navigation, A-GPS support; the hardware foundation is that same as that of the Sony Ericsson C702. Among crucial letdowns of the Paris is that it’s defaulted to Google Maps, while full-featured turn by turn navigation with voice tips is available only with WayFinder 7. This application comes as a try-and-buy program on the Paris, allowing you to purchase the license should you want it.
- The phone is set to arrive this September; as of today it lacks stability, and requires a lot of tweaking, and again the version of UIQ and browser may be subject to change. It will retail for 400 Euro, which is 50 Euros more than what the Sony Ericsson G900 went for when it landed here. This premium is actually charged for the form-factor, keyboard design and inbuilt GPS.

Hello
very nice and informative report ! As the BeiBei supports the UIQ3.3 I really do hope, that the Paris will also use UIQ3.3
As for the processore speed I am fine, however, I wish that several applications will run more smooth. May be with UIQ3.3 this will be the case.
So far I did never so a stick with Paris. Where did it got ?
For me UIQ3 is still the best, as it is unique in the market. What else phone supports Blackberry and Multimedia ? I use my phone every day more than 1 hour !
