The growing number of observational details questions the standard picture of the evolution of dwarf ellipticals and argues for a complex evolution dominateded by environmental effects. Here we compile some standard and most recent observational issues and discuss the results of simple models in comparison with observations. The necessity of further model developments are justified and prospected.
