    Hi guys....
    Im mostly impressed by this phone after reading the review and forum posts and planning to get one in this month.
    however,I just wanna clear one thing.I know wave does not support true multitasking when it comes to third part apps bcz it cant run more than one bada app in background due to the kernel structure.but what about the JAVA apps?can we run more than one JAVA apps simultaneously?can we run one java and one one bada app along with or with not core apps?I really need to clear that thing.otherwise this phone is damn good,considering the price bracket in which it comes.
    Wave owners,please help me.Ur help will really be appriciated.
    Thanx in advance.Let there be light....

        Wave 2 and Wave2 pro will also be making an entry into the mobile world in august. Hope they do well as well.

        The more bada devices, the better.

          Anonymous, 06 Aug 2010I asked Samsung to update the FW right after I purchased it... moremate thats a bummer alright cos the music player and cam are actually really good when all works fine.take it back and exchange it anyway cos although you might have the latest firmware,and its bugged-out,then its not worth anything.make the most of you waranty while you got it.

                    [deleted post]i am in madurai , Tamilnadu.
                    Before going to 3g use a bsnl sim and look at the 3g signal strength at ur place. If it displays 3G or 3G+ the signal strength is good. go for it .
                    if it shows E then the signal is weak.it will only use gprs there.
                    Wave has got a good processor and browser and it makes me enjoy my 3g.

                            About your post. Did you mean 'switch off' or 'switch on' ??

                            My laptop too shows limited connectivity when i connect it, but shows connected moments later and i am easily able to browse internet. Did you try to use internet even though it showed limited connectivity ?
