its not even on horizon so I'll say.......not atleast till next year.

Ajamils... it's already been approved by the Bluetooth SIG, so it's definitely on the horizon. It'll probably be released by September, but I would venture further and say that it'll be released around July in Japan, and probably the same time in Europe.

Don't ask me what it's got though, I have no idea.

The Bluetooth & other approvals for the 903SH were obtained within a few weeks of those for the 902SH. Vodafone's been offering an extra 5000 yen discount on its existing range under certain circumstances, and the offer is valid until the end of May. Its competitors are rolling out better phones than the 902SH in July. So I guess the 903SH will arrive in June or July. Sharp has a shiny new phone for Docomo this July, and Vodafone can't afford to be left behind in the Japanese market right now since it's already regarded as a lame duck here.

does anyone know the specs of 903 ??

It is strange to have 903 as 902 is fairly new in UK. I have asked around but no one had any news about 903.It will be good if someone can share some light about the release date in UK.

That's pretty fast....coming out already...so soon.

1 thing should be certain unless they are going to lose out to panasonic for best screen....heh heh the 903 should have at least 16m colors on the screen...right now 262k is standard. The new Panasonic Mx7 and SA7 both have that....it will be interesting to see....

My... I don't think people have fully digested with Sharp 902 and now Sharp 903?

The Sharp 902 came out five months ago, how can you call that new??

Seriously though I've heard reports that NTT DoCoMo will announce their summer lineup next Thursday, so hopefully Vodafone will announce their lineup around then.

Did anyone hear that Vodafone and Sharp have developed a digital TV compatible prototype handset?
