Default The Future of the Smartphone Through The Eyes Of Sony Ericsson

Business 2.0 has posted a very interesting interview with Urban Gillstrom, president of Sony Ericsson. They cover a lot of information about how Sony Ericsson turned the boat around and was able to report 5 consecutive profitable quarters. Here's what Urban had to say about looking at other operating systems for future devices.

"No, we're fully focused on Symbian. As an operating system, Symbian is really the only one designed for smartphones. It offers great communication for both voice and data, and that's something the other operating systems don't always do a great job with. I can't speak about future products, but we think that is the ultimate operating system for smartphones. In the United States, there are Windows- and Palm-based phones, but you don't see that as much overseas."

That's too bad. I would really like to see a Sony Ericsson based Windows Mobile device. Since he won't comment on future devices, I guess all hope is not lost. What are your thoughts?
