      Can't play music via bluetooth enabled device (eg laptop). Can't view details of a folder quickly. You have to dig deep in the settings. Can't save web pages. Doesn't support mht, m4b. Bada OS doesn't need 1.0.2 or 1.0.3. It needs 2.0.
      BTW, is there any way to turn touchwiz ui off? I am not really a big fan on the "iphonish" icons

                      Here i come back, after sold my expriax2 (i've post my comment in xperia x2 column) and spend the money to this new super smooth phone.

                      Im really satisfied with this phone, the problem with hanging (xperia x2) now gone and i got one of the most excellent screen, smooth running and better battery life. The application also not bad, and of course say bye2 to iphone 3gs where the price slightly higher.

                      For those who are looking for reliable phone, faster, clear screen, easy use this is the perfect phone for you. Dont argue more, go to the bank or using credit card and what so ever and then buy this phone.

                      Great work Samsung!! Thumbs up

The usage would be like 20 min to the max, I have indeed been using none of the applications for the last couple of days but still the battery life is only for a day or so. Please advice..........

                                    Wave Rocks, 15 Sep 2010More than 5 times I asked this no answer as yet is there... moreIn reply to your question, I am from the UK and I noticed on the App store there was a navigation solution called Ndrive however it only had maps for Italy and Mexico and strangely no UK maps. Samsung have now removed Ndrive Italy and Mexico from UK app store so not sure when UK version will come out. I've heard Ndrive is quite good so hopefully we should see it back soon. I think Samsung are trying to organise their apps to appear for specific countries only depending on language and relevance which may explain why they removed Ndrive as its didn't have UK maps. Route 66 has a bug which I'm sure Samsung will fix, as its quite slow to pick up satelites but its not that bad and still usable.

                                      Just started to use my Wave. Amazing phon! Couple of questions:-

                                      Can you get push email with hotmail?

                                      It says it updates email every 30 mins but mine doesnt seem to even though I have selected this option.

                                      With the intallation option (found in applications menu, should it be on default to phone or default to memory?

                                      BBC Iplayer loads but when I selct a programme to watch it says flash player need updating. I click on the link but it says flash does not support the phone!

                                      With all settings (email, internet, etc) there are three different Vodafone settings - Vodafone contract WAP, Vodafone Contract MMS and Vodafone Contract Mail. You can select any of these for each (intenet etc) but which is correct?

                                      Thanks
