I got my cookie's software upgraded last Thursday. thanks to some review's posted here i was able to go to LG Pasig (phils.). According to the technician, Wellcom is authorized where other cookie owner's can have their cookie upgraded. but not all Wellcom shop's can offer the upgrade some are just drop off points where Wellcom will be the one to bring you're cookie to LG's Service center which will take you day's of waiting.

(Wellcom in Robinsons galleria was mentioned that is offering the software upgrade).

Also, that same day my Girlfriend brought her Cookie. She got her Cookie for only P11,300.

              i got my cookie last monday and im currently enjoying the experience and i don't regret buying this phone.

              i also experienced reboot on first day when i still didn't have memory card. but when i bought my memory card and set all the saving locations to the card, i no longer experienced reboot (5 days now.)

              i agree with the comments below that the camera is not at par with nokia and sony phones. However, the image editing capability of the phone compensates the "not so great' quality of the photos taken by this cookie.. I love playing with the settings and the pictures came out great after editing. here are the photo editing features of the phone

              Adjustment:
              Auto Level
              Auto colour
              Auto Brightness
              Auto Contrast
              Brightness
              contrast
              RGB Effect
              Hue
              Saturation
              White Balance

              Filters:
              Face Beautify
              Tunnel Effect
              colour Negative
              B&W
              Sepia
              Blur
              Sharpen
              Mosaic Blur
              Oil Painting
              Sketch
              Emboss
              Solarise
              vivid
              Moonlight
              Antique
              Glow
              Cartoon
              Water Color

              you can also add text, stamps and drawings to your photos.

              I also love the speaker of this phone. very clear and crisp sound and very loud.

              overall, i think that this is a very cool phone for a very cheap price.

                        Was amazed by it the first few days. Then slowly got sick of it (my problem). Then it started restarting and offing itself and returning to factory mode.

                        Ah well. I should've believed all the negative feedback.

                        Selling it next week (yipee) and getting a phone with a keypad. I've enough of touch screens for a while.

                              BTW I've just upgraded to v10n main difference between v10c+24 is you could do it by yourself. other than that I think they're the same.

                                  wolv, 30 Jan 2009hey Riz, the camera is excellent as long as you know how t... morehaha...

                                  I think the camera is not good. Nothing you can do about it.

                                  I am pretty good with playing with the device and knowing how a device works in probably less than a day.

                                  So, WOLZ... I do know how to work it. No need to tell me to go read the manual.

                                  Unfortunately, I just don't find the camera good enough. That's that. period.

                                  No one can change my mind.

                                  If you haven't seen a better camera than what the cookie has, I feel bad for you. Pitiful.

                                    The phone will experience reboot for about 3 weeks and after that no reboot just like mine

                                        hey Riz,
                                        the camera is excellent as long as you know how to use it and what not to do with it.So, please read the user manual first and learn how to handle it.
