Only a few countries, Germany,uk and singapore has the latest version of 2.1 in the spica. The rest of the world will get it later. If you want the 2.1 version in your country, wait a little bit longer. Upgrading version from 1.5 to 2.1 seems to be a bit slow in other countries.
No multitouch? If you mean pinch zoom, no . But you can still get zoom via the onscreen +/- or press and drag.

Any idea what should be done to get bsnl 3g working on samdung galaxy 5700? It worked for few days and now don't get 3g signal at all. Visiting bsnl customer service center also didn't help. Got the sim replaced. But nothing seems to helping. Airtel gprs works without any issue

i recenty went to a service center in delhi....nd they told me that they had some sort of bluetooth update..my guess its the new firmware...but they\'ll give me on 26th....so guys go ahead check ur nearby service centres....if its in singapore.....india aint far....btw.....love this fone.....very responsive....though laggs rarely when a lot of applications opened at a tym.....maybe due to the less 128 mb ram.....but with a nyc task manager.....its heaven.....best feature is web browsing nd divx/xvid playback(very fast)......camera is fyn....audio is not bad at ol for metal fans lyk me, though not the best.....with stock headfones, but decent. Its the best value for money out there......

Dev, 24 Apr 2010Currently SPICA is totally out of stock everywhere in Blore... moreDev,
Samsung jet is a wonderful feature phone(not a smart phone).Infact i was planning to buy JET2 but my love to android within that budget(plus an update) dragged me to buy spica.That AMOLED screen is a pleasure to watch. crystal clear images. plus its got dozens of features like: 5mp camera,D1 resol recording,slow motion recording,accelerator,proximity sensor and like spica JET2 is also a DivX certified phone.With 2 gb inbuilt memory its real fast as the name indicates.The price too has fallen by nearly 9k(Its introductory price was 23k now u get for less than 14k). Only thing that will set back you is the absence of third party applications.Installing java apps is a difficult process in itself.
To sum up:
1)If you want a multimedia phone that performs in every department and that you are satisfied with whatever is available with the phone(by default).Then you can very well go for jet.
2)if you want to customize your phone and you are not bothered about the camera department,if you love android then spica is the one for you.Rather i would say if you want a smart phone go for spica.
One more thing the JET comes with R-Type touch screens rather than the capacitive ones in the spica.So Spica is very much responsive. you need to give in a little pressure to register your touch in JET compared to spica(but its responsiveness is way better than nokia 5800).
To know more about JET(There are three critical bugs in jet am not sure about jet2 ) you can visit this group dedicated for JET:

Currently SPICA is totally out of stock everywhere in Blore. Dealers are expecting more stock in a week or two.
Is this due to upgrade to android 2.1 by Samsung or they are stopping the model?
Also, how is Jet2 (8003) compared to SPICA? I guess jet2 has more features but Samsung propriety OS unlike SPICA android OS?
