Sony Ericsson M610i resurfaces again

As far as we know, the upcoming Sony Ericsson (NYSE: SNE) M610i will basically have all the features of the P1i except the camera. The idea is to make a device for organizations that don’t allow their employees to carry a camera phone while on-the-work. That being said, we’re still not sure why it takes so long for the Swedish-Japanese handset maker to announce the new smartphone. Maybe we’ll see something else built inside the M610i. Maybe HSDPA support, the new interface? Despite the fact that we’ve already seen the device several times in the wild, we don’t have a clue. Guess the upcoming Mobile World Congress will provide us with some answers…
UPDATE: Or it may be totally cancelled as some sources have suggested despite the fact that we’ve seen it passing the FCC hurdle and this is just one of those prototypes. I would love to see Sony Ericsson releasing a statement about it…

Guys are you kidding???
Everybody knows this phone will never come to the market!!!
I’m not sure about that. If that’s the case, I must have missed Sony Ericsson’s release about that…
Or you might be right. I’ve just updated the post. It’s still strange though… I hate the idea of P1i without camera, yet I’m sure that kind of device would find buyers…
One of the proofs is that one guy from Esato forum have bought it some time ago from Ebay, as a proto of course, with a SE123 mark.
Yet another “what-were-they-thinking” phone from SE that probably won’t even be quadband. Unless they do something to spice it up, this thing will be as forgettable as the M600 -
