          was somebody's problem a sound once with the mobile telephone? I was not satisfied with the speech quality on the other hand. I heard everybody well though, me but only if I helped in my sound forming a funnel of my hand into the microphone. did somebody else experience one like this?

                      the other thing,
                      there is an E-book reader option...
                      what format does it support? can it support the pda ,ppt files etc ?those tiny medical dictionaries and all.
                      and are any other themes available?
                      and indeed very much impressed by the battery...

                        I have problem with Java feature. I cannot change java setting for writing user data as described in user manual. This problem possibly causes some java application problems which requires writing data to the storage. I have reported the problem to local Philips representative. However there is no answer until months. I also sent question to Philips official website, there is a response, but no solution. Please help me. I love this cool handphone, but I am not satisfied with this problem. I think it is part of quality problem, where the user manual is not suitable with the device.

                          let's start with the pluses:

                          Build quality: I've owned a 650 (xenium 9@9c), a 960 and a 768. the cosmetics of these phones would fade or fall apart after as short a period as 2 months. My 9@9w has gone past its 6th month - still pristine. Its solid form makes the 3 former units look flimsy. By the way, the last two units were so buggy - philips philippines offered me a refund because it couldn't offer a better unit.

                          Form factor: i've gotten lots of good feedback about how handsome it looks. even makes its owner look good. (wink wink).

                          Signal quality. Pretty good everywhere i go...even on sun cellular :-)

                          now the minuses:

                          Interface and graphics: looks so haunting like that of alcatels. a friend of mine owns an ot-825 and the similarities, right down to how you create and update music files...spooky...you'd think they came out of the same factory.

                          Output power: great sounding speaker, but the headsets leaves a lot to be
                          desired. great in quiet places, but wouldn't recommend using it inside the bus let alone public places where the ambience would drown the sound coming from your earpiece. you guys might want to consider adopting philips's "dynamic bass boost" to compete against "megabass" by sony(ericsson).

                          as for the batter life.

                          i've not expected much even as way back as my 650 for one simple reason, the more you use your phone, the more power you consume and at 920 milliamperes? come one philips...get real...you can't really expect a month...even on standby.

                          despite these however, i'm still happy to be using philips again.

                                Dear Philips,

                                Wish you could make a version that's dual active, has a flash for the camera and 3G capable (plus a host of minor tweaks). But all things considered, your 9@9w is one heck of a phone. I absolutely love it.

                                Thanks.

                                    Honestly, nothing is perfect guys, philips is no back stabber for sure, they are for real, to me xenium 9@9w is awesome, it's a good friendly phone. Bravo Philips! and to those who are using it and accept it as it is or intend to buy it as it is, no matter what, you are making the right choice, and to those who had given up, please stop ridiculing because acting in such a way would make you subconciously ill, Okay don't do drugs, don't kill yourselves, have a nice 'phone' day, I love u all.

                                        dwight, 13 Sep 2008NEED HELP... just bought one. - cannot change ringtone. ... moreas for your 2nd question, i m not sure i may give you the right answer, 'cos i just used it for several minutes.

                                        well, in case you insert a micro sd card as i did for listening to music, you should then put all music files into a folder called "My Music" (you may create it by yourself or it will be created automatically after you set the playlist option to memory card), and you check the "refresh list" option, you ll see all the music files recognizable be listed.

                                        good luck,
