          For those who have updated their S8500 to 1.2 officially:

          What's the text message capacity, still 1,300 messages?
          You still get "not enough memory", "page too large.." when using the Dolphin browser?
          Still get the "content not supported" when trying to download some content using the browser?
          The music player (in random playback) cycles back to the previously played tracks when you press the next button?
          And lastly, are the Equalizer and Effects working when playing m4a tracks?

          Hope somebody could answer.

            I love this smartfone its brilliant and just short of a good twitter client,,any suggestions welcome.I have resorted to Snaptu for ease of use.I listened to 12 hrs of podcasts on 50% volume and still had 2 bars left.I have all i want in this device except a qwerty keypad but it will do for now.

                        Mga tol, haven't you noticed sa mga posts dito? It seems gsmarena is filtering posts to be displayed per region. Maybe it's just my imagination.

                        BTW, can't wait to see the first Nokia Windows phone. A possible Wave replacement.

                            And bada 2.0 will be officially announced soon. This is sad. 1.2 is not even available yet. I'll never buy another bada phone ever again.
                            After I updated to bada 1.0 dxjk1, my phone started to hang and restarts itself. Talk about half-baked updates.

I can answer the question why can't you connect to SM WIFI., first u need to register an account by first using your internet browser. Then log-in to their site., don't worry, you will be automatically directed to their site.
