                            I had this for a while before returning it for out of memory errors and not to hot with touchscreen fones..The wave tho really is a fantastic spec smartfone but now i wish this fone was running android..I may get this again if not much else turns up this year plus it may be more stable then..

                            I found wave very sturdyly built with excellent audio/cam/video..It is r the price as well,,im considering beam and nokia n8 but unless some top end button fones come out then 2010 has been a bad year for me ....All you get now in fone shops is a blanket of screen slabs which just look miserable,,cannot wait for touchscreen fad to be over..

                                        alex, 01 Aug 2010Hi thr! Does ny1 know d security password for d wave..coz ... more@ Alex

                                        WAVE by default doesn't set any password on it. If you are getting a screen that ask for device password, and you have not key in any password before then you've to key in your password twice in order for WAVE to create a device password for you. And from that time onward that is your device password.

                                        Thanks.
