Selamat tinggal UIQ...

The End of UIQ

2 January 2009 by Olav Hellesø-Knutsen

The Sony Ericsson owned company UIQ files for bankruptcy according to CEO Johan Sandberg

The Swedish newspaper Sydöstran reported on wednesday that UIQ Ronneby was filed for bankrupcy. CEO Johan Sandberg said the owners will not provide any more financial support. Two months ago, the two owners Sony Ericsson and Motorola garanteed for the emploees paychecks, but would not say for how long. The current world economy made it difficult to find investors willing to insert more capital in the company.

Around 200 people was still working for UIQ during the last day of 2008.

Setuju....
Innalillahi wainnailaihi rojiun, segala sesuatu pasti ada akhirnya (sorry terjemahan gw plintir dikit).

@fuma
setuju bnget, gw merasa P910 gw dulu lebih mantap dari semua UIQ sekarang, modelnya paling keren, keypad biasa dan qwerty ada di flip jadi ngga mereduksi ukuran layar kaya p990, dan sampai saat ini p800 - p910 tetap memiliki layar terlebar dibanding UIQ sekarang, moga2 deh ntar ada X-series dengan form factor ala P910

Ada dua pilihan bagi pengguna UIQ,

1. Kalo gadgetnya bermasalah, segera jual, cari HP UIQ terus ambil pilihan ke-2, yaitu...
2. Kalo gadgetnya masih bagus, segera beli HP lain, UIQ-nya di simpan aja...

he he he...

, yup...this is what I doing

setelah +/- 5 bulan yg lalu M600i masalah di jog-dial dan akhirnya ganti +/- bulan kemaren, so mau di pensiunkan sementara (simpen) dan g udah booked T650i GREEN

masih punya P1i juga, tp g pribadi lebih suka M600i, so P1i bini yg pake, walau kemaren liat udah gak 100% mulus....hehehehe biasa bini pake campur dgn alat2 perang di tas-nya, makannya g suka bingung kalo ada jual Hp mulus ex CW, perasaan CW tuh lebih parah deh makenya....(gak semua, tp rata2 bukan ? )

nunggu G700 drop, kalo G900 masih agak lama kayanya

Bravo for the last UIQ

@MB
jah... daripada situ kantongnya berat... mending NEC-nya dihibahin aja ke gw... ... jarang2 ada henpon tutup batrenya bisa dijatohin ke lante bunyinya "klontang"..... hehehehe

@TRO
biting = tusuk gigi????

anehnya.... pada saat dibilang The End of UIQ, justru sekarang makin banyak bermunculan aplikasi portingan buat UIQ3....

tapi mari kita tunggu... denger2 gosipnya P1 mau dikeluarin final firmware yang udah dijejelin opera 9 plus flash plugin (by default.. bukan yang install tambahan flash plugin)....

tapi nda usah terlalu diharapkan lah....

Ha.. bagus kok di hentikan... payah nih SE... bagi g hp UIQ tuh the best... g pake dari m600 w950 dan sekarang p1i...g plg suka p1i... kl lain kl ga da lagi ga tau mo pake hp apa lg.... payah
