Probably they have to maintain low the price... And if you had already a SE there won't be problems with its cable...

C510 seems pretty good and not so unfriendly glossy as many other phones in the market. Really elegant with great features. But why to make three different version of it?

*
C510
GSM/GPRS/EDGE 900/1800/1900
UMTS/HSPA 2100

*
C510a:
GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900
UMTS/HSPA 850/1900/2100

*
C510c:
GSM/GPRS/EDGE 900/1800/1900

- - -

It's enough to have only this C510a, which can operater in 4 GSM band and 3 HSPA band. Why to make two more version with limited network capabilities?

As I know there was only one version of the other network polyglot phone K850i.

According to this site, it does have a Memory Slot. It will also probably have the Sony fastport (power/USB connection/headset) unless someone on the design team had amnesia.

Also, the answer to why 3 variants :

"Three variants of the C510 will be released in the first quarter of 2009: the C510 supports tri-band GSM (900/1800/1900MHz) and 2100MHz UMTS, the C510a for the Americas sports quad-band GSM (850/900/1800/1900MHz) and tri-band UMTS (850/1900/2100MHz) support, and the C510c for the Chinese market supports tri-band GSM (900/1800/1900MHz). Each version features a 2.2" QVGA (240x320 pixel) screen, Bluetooth with A2DP stereo support, and a Memory Stick Micro slot"

Really? That would convert to about PHP 15-18K here in Manila - that's what I paid for a k800i a *year* after it was introduced locally. Comparing the feature sets, it's a very good price indeed.
