Some dealers at Tehran’s Ala’eddin Mobile Set Mall say that for a while
various models of Sony Ericsson were the best sellers in the market and
Nokia sets were not as fast going as they used to be here.

Yet it has been a few days that the customers looking for that brand,
too, face scarcity of their desired set types, or are even totally
unable of finding them in the market.

The manager of Citadel-Telecom, Sony Ericsson’s sole sales agent in
Iran, Mahdi Nader had earlier announced the entry of that company’s new
models to the market, assuring the dealers that the problems with which
they had been entangled to procure the Sony-Ericsson sets would be
limited to very few models.

So why is this happening? This is yet another article I find today that puts Sony ahead of Nokia. First the J.D Power customer satisfaction survey, and now this. Will someone please identify the problem? I might make a trip down to my local provider huts (Verizon, T-Mobile, Cingular) to check out what these mobiles really have to offer.

Sony-Ericsson’s do use standard 3.5mm headphone jacks … learn from them Nokia
