905SH confirmed too!?

Now, this is really weird. The 904SH's entry in the Bluetooth SIG's database has been updated with the 905SH as well, so they're now both there under the same entry, with the same Bluetooth profiles.

So what's going on here? The 904SH isn't ready yet, and yet Sharp are already preparing the 905SH too!

both for the same quarter.. that wouldnt' make sense.

two high end phoesn from them? it would made sense.. if they updated the 703.



Posted by: AL9999

Yup. Definitely a weird development...

Maybe Sharp will add a 704SH or 705SH ID to the entry as well. Guess we'll see...

but if the 900 series.. is the flag ship models.. why are they releasing two at a time.. doesn't make much sense.. i guess we have to watch it unfold.



Posted by: AL9999

Yeah it doesn't at all. Some are speculating in the Japanese forums that the 905 will be an analog/digital TV enhanced version of the 904 (meaning Japan only release) to debut in time for the start of mobile digital TV in Japan on the 1st April. Who knows...

Maybe they are replacing the 700 or 800 series with a lower 900 series, so they can catch fans from both of the series with a higher price.

Maybe just getting the patents?



Posted by: AL9999

No, there's no such thing as a 'lower 900 series'. The whole premise of the 700/800/900 series is to denote the feature level of the phone.

70x = Budget
80x = Middle range
90x = Cutting edge

That's how it works.

It's actually 3xx, 4xx, 5xx, 6xx, 7xx, 8xx, 9xx. 7/8/9 series are 3G. Not all phones are available in all markets. There's no 4-series model shipping right now. Nokia 6630 is a 702NK. Nokia 6680 is a 702NK II. 703SH has been superceded by the 703SHf. Nokia isn't perceived as having anything suitable for 8- or 9-series. 904/5 is out soon. 905 will sell more within Japan than the 904.

Wow, bushcat really IS from the future! Tell us more.



Posted by: AL9999

I was trying to keep things simple. Seeing as how the rest of the world outside Japan only gets the 3G phones, I didn't see the point of measuring all the other number lines.

Bushcat, if you'd explain the reasoning behind your predictions for the 904/905, I'd be more inclined to believe you

still no info from japan...
