    Also, can you comment on anything you find that is a bit poor, or you did not expect? Some bad things if there are any?

    Cheers mate.

        but i can tel you one thing,if you r like me all day lang playing wit you phone!
        and lisning to muscic surfing the web!
        i garante you tha you need to charge you battery every day end of the line!
        but white the wave i think you do a least two compleet days wit it!!!
        and bada os it self is new and one's you get used to it i think most of the people wil like it....like everybody is scared of the touchwize!!??but this 3.0 touchwize
        looks way beter than the old touchwize!!
        to me its the iphone but in a better way!
        look you nowe what makes this phone great in the end??
        that's simply the captive touchescreen....noweb every thing vlawles!
        and if the wave had a resistive touchscreen it woud never been a succes!
        but everything runs simply great!!and nowe you can speak of a iphone match!!

        sorry for the bad english.

              I didnt want to like this handset, didnt like the design, didnt like the idea of the os and I dont overly like samsung anymore..........however was playing on one at work today and dam is it good. Fast, responsive and the design I even like(ish) now. Excellent handset smooth interface and great screen.

                  I tried the Samsung Wave at the Samsung Roadshow at Plaza Singapura in Singapore today. The phone is simply amazing! The screen looks as if it was popping out of the phone! The interface is very very smooth, fast and intuitive! The camera was excellent - very fast without lag in processing, and the details were very fine and sharp - probably helped by the SuperAMOLED screen, my friend reminded me. I was very very impressed.

                      Hi, I'm from Belgium and when everything goes right, I get my wave next tuesday. I have 1 important question to those who already use the wave (specialy people from Belgium?...): I have a pre-payed card and I reload my card on the dialing pad with: #124#... can I do this with the OS Bada of the wave?

                      thx for answering
