Ugly as s**t and still lacking a camera

Exactly 2 weeks ago we caught word of some make-up artists working on a new refreshed edition of the M600i business cellphone manufactured by Sony Ericsson. Now, thanks to some guys from se-world.info, we also have live pictures of this revamped M600i, a handset also known as Lizzy.

As the info we had at that time told us, we weren't expecting nothing special to come on the market, Lizzy being, as the rumors said, just a plain old M600i with a more silverish look and with added WLAN connectivity.

The new rumors tell us the phone pictured in the attached photo will indeed offer Wi-Fi, will not have a digital camera of any sort and will also feature EDGE technology. This is a quite inadequate move to be made by Sony Ericsson at a time when almost every mobile phone manufacturer with some self esteem launches HSPDA ready handsets.

That and its not that gorgeous looks will, in my opinion, sign its death certificate ahead of time. I don't know about you but given the present situation on the mobile market, I wouldn't get it even if Sony Ericsson would pay me to do it.

Lizzy is ugly, resembling the old fashioned calculators we all used to utilize when we were young to extract the square root and calculate stuff (handy at the time but quite old fashioned today especially considering the fact we're talking about a cellphone and not about some super-abacus wannabe).

Even more, Sony Ericsson doesn't seem to live in the same time continuous as we do! People, we need some kind of 3G here not EDGE. That is what my father thought was revolutionary... A few years ago! Wake up and pour some goodies in this technologically challenged phone of yours!

And if you're going to do that, please restrain yourself and don't stick in that totally out of this world joystick you put in all your handsets lately! It doesn't work as well as you think!

Sony Ericsson, just think about that!
