    I'm really interested in a Wave, but I'm in the US where the 3G network is not available. Has anyone in the US tried the wave out over the 2G network? Any problems? Also, has anyone tried to download Google Earth? Is it possible? Thank you for your help.

          Anonymous, 09 Jul 2010hi any wave user, can't we able to stop, pause, fastforwar... morethat is a true answer. i think u misunderstood. he asked whether he can start, stop, pause, forward, and skip FROM THE HEADSET. Normally phone didnt come with headset like he said with n81.

            Anonymous, 09 Jul 2010hi any wave user, can't we able to stop, pause, fastforwar... moreIt would really help you if you read a few pages, there is tons of information already thats been discussed :) After all, you dont want to be just able to fast fwd, pause, play and chg tracks when you a buy a pone do you ? :) No offense !

            And yes, it does have those features, but not on the headphone controls. As for the audio quality, gsmarena terms is as one of the cleanest audio outputs on a phone.

                              I have a big problem with my Wave which i just bought: the phone doesn't recognize my microSD card (it's Kingmax micro SDHC 8 gb class 6) which is also new. :((( I went to the Wave's settings and when I tried to see the microSD's details, it said that the format was unrecognized and asked me if I wanted to format it. When I press yes, it says "Error, the memory card doesn't exist". I then tried to format the microSD in my laptop but the problem persists. Then I tried to reset the phone with the reset options in the settings but this doesn't work either. I'm desperated. I don't know wether it's a hardware or software problem. My card works find on the laptop when inserted in my card reader. My FW version is XXJF1 which i heard it's the latest firmware and other users don't have any issues with it. I don't know what to do. :((( Please help!

                                  Will this phone support Google Maps? And what's its actual price? I am from Kolkata, one shop is saying 18K and other is 17.5K.
