I am about to purchase the viewty, checked many of the reviews, but still have questions. I hope someone has the answers.
Does the viewty have an operating system?
Can the viewty sync with Outlook contacts and calendar?
What's your experience with receiving/sending emails?
Thank you!

Guys, how can I send a text message that is over 2 pages long as a text message rather than it automatically converting them to MMS? I've been into message settings and chosen "send as long SMS" but it still converts anything over 2 pages to MMS.
Any ideas????

Just following up on my earlier post re: the keypad locking when on a call. Apprently a keypad icon appears to unlock the phone so you can enter digits whilst on the phone(i.e. when having to use in call options. You might not be bothered but it was bugging me. Have to say I emailed LG about this this morning and they got back within two hours. Pretty good response that! :)

oh and the battery life seems to be quite good as they leave a display phone running a video for five hours straight when doing their demo thing so that equates to about three feature length films before having to recharge it.

just had some LG reps demoing the phone and it seems really good. the only things i don't really like about it are the facts that it takes a couple of seconds to preview images etc and i've heard that the UI slows down when you fill the memory up. hopefully these'll be corrected in a firmware update.
the phone comes with a 3.5mm jack adaptor so you can use your own headphones with it. the loudspeaker is loud and plays back with good quality but i've not yet tried it with headphones.
can anyone vouch for the sound quality through a decent set of heaphones?
probably going to upgrade to this when my contract runs out but i'll have to check out the w960 first.

Ref. Keyboard and vibrate:
When you are in sms screen, look for 3 tabs on top of white space where you write message. So the first one is with kind of pen and Capital A on it, press that tab and choose keyboard out of 3 givven options.
To switch on/off keypress vibrate or adjust it's strenght, goto Settings,Profiles and on any highlited profile(whichever you want to choose or edit) press left bottom button(like a page),press edit and see if touch type is with 'vibrate' and bellow in menu under 'Touch vib volume' you can adjust vibrate strenght from 1 to 7.
Simple as that.

I just got mine last night. I charged it all night and now the battery level is at 2 bars, perhaps I used it too heavily.
I never like Touch Screen phone, but this Viewty changed me. It is quite a joy to use this phone. The Fish theme is fun, and all the Googles Apps (Mail, Search, Maps) and YouTube are preinstalled. Although I prefer the Youtube from iPhone which is more nicely integrated.
The camera photo quality tend to be a bit on the soft side, need a bit of sharpening, otherwise the color are natural and its a joy to see the good quality photo.
Rington is quite loud, you will never miss a call. A2DP to a Sony Ericsson BT Headset works smoothly, but it tend to temporary disconnect/skip when you jerk the phone, but it will connect back quickly.
Phonebook at 500 is a bit little for me as I have close to 700 contacts that's because of business associate and overseas offices contact.
Voice call quality is not bad, but not as clear as Motorola or Sony Ericsson.
PC Suite syncing to Outlook 2003 (in Vista) run into a little problem but I managed to sort it out, and it works fine now.
Web Browser is good and able to render most pages correctly.
When place face down on the table, a lot of people ask me if that's a Camera or a phone ! LOL !!!
I like the Infra Red Light Assist when shooting, it feel very much like a real digital camera. Macro shot is not as good as Sony Ericsson, I think optimized length is more than 10cm, probably 13cm to 15cm.
The circular rim enclosing the lens is actually a jog dial, you can use it to zoom or scroll thru options. The Finger Scroll doesnt seem to work in some modules, esp in Music Player mode, it works fine scrolling though normal option though.
I like the Digital Clock in the main screen, you can drag the clock to anywhere on the Home Screen which is very cool, the fish theme is just as cool moving towards your finger as you touch the screen.
I'm still checking out this baby =)
