      - Well, it depends on the user usage, you just can't generalize that situation, I'de prefer you say "charge it when it needs to be charged".
      If a normal mobile user like me -who's his mobile is in stand-by mode for the most of the time- charged his phone everyday, he will be over-charging/over-killing his battery, cause he'll be charging it while it still has more than 85% of it's power left inside of it.
      You'll need to charge it everyday ONLY if you indeed drain the battery power in a single day.
      - You asked for a country/region that its firmware allow the shutter sound to be muted when the phone is set into silent mode, and because each country/region has a different supported language set/package that differs than other countries/regions, then I gave you a region that has the english language as its primary supported language by default along with some other languages that I think you won't be familliar with, so that's why I asked if you don't need a language other than english.
      Also, my region has the same firmware version but with another primary languages (arabic and french) -they do also support english, but you won't be able to move through menus to select english language cause you won't be able to read/understand the menus-.
      - Yes, the shutter sound is ON when in normal mode.

      In "video" mode click on "Settings", move the joystick to right direction to the second tab named "Shoot mode", click on "Select" and then choose/click on "High quality Video".

            - Do you mean the new models -K790 & K800- batteries, or same K750 "new shipped/supplied" batteries ??
            - If you don't use any language other than english, then feel free to use my region firmware, it's "Middle East and Africa --> Middle East and North Africa (EN)", it has what you seek.

            doul you no the old phones like the nokia 3315 and those kinda fones, they devlop flat spots, the new fones like eg the ones packd wit good cams and sh*t load of features are the new batteries which needa b charged everyday so yes the k750 counts in this. jus the normal batteries

            and with the sound shutter thing what do u mean if you dont uselanguage other than english and then middle east and stuff so r u saying if i use english and middle east duz it work. also i want the camera sounds on when the fone is set to normal duz the cam shutter sound only go off when u choose silent????

              Hey, don't forget to down scale your DVD's/movies from PAL, NTSC or any other resolution to 176*144 resolution when you convert them to have the converted 3GP's scaled correctly with K750 screen.

                The USB cable is not intended to be for charging, charging is only a ponus but not the primary goal of the supplied USB cable, and there is nothing you can do to make the phone stays off with the cable attached/plugged, for you can't transfer the data -the primary goal of the cable- while the phone is switched off.
                However, with a week PSU (Power Supply Unit), you'll get an optimized charging which is not the best way to charge your K750 with -takes a very long time-, but if you have a powerful PSU with high rated power outputs -general output wattage and rials output ambers-, you'll end up with the normal chraging which you get with the normal charger.
                As I told you earlier, the phone will has to remain switched on, and I just don't prefer to charge my phone while it's switched on, but it's up to you

                I think that you mean LOW not SLOW.
                Either you -or the talking person- were standing too far from the mic -BTW the mic is located left of the fast port in the down side of the phone if you don't know-, or the general volume of the phone is indeed low -raise it up using the two volume keys located at the top of the right-hand side of the phone-.
                I can't come up with another reason for there haven't been any bugs ever in this area !

                Your question is illogical, I assume that you're not yet familliar with the updating process, so here it goes.
                There is a K750 device/hardware with its own firmware and W800 device/hardware with its own firmware -both firmwares do have the same name, but each of them differs in its own core/characteristics-.
                K750 firmware does not have the flight mode option but it do support the shortcut/new events key -the middle soft key-, while W800 firmware have the flight mode option and has a dedicated special key to access/turn it on -that key replaces the shortcut key found in K750, so there is no shortcut key in W800-, also W800 firmware has a slight different media player interface than the one in K750 firmware -just a side unimportant note-.
                Now let me ask you, will it be logical/possible to write a firmware that support an option and a key and later on I write another firmware -to update and solve bugs found in the earlier firmware- that support another option and another key knowing that both firmwares are targeted for the same one device ??
                The trick is in the updating software itself, it detects the correct model of your phone -either by reading the serial number of the phone or by detecting some special thing in the hardware core- then it calls for that model firmware.
                The first updating software aka SEUS I (Sony Ericsson Update Service) was a very basic one, its purpose was to only connect the phone with SE server which was doing the whole job -and can be fooled by choosing another model cause it doesn't have any detecting/checking step-, but now, the new version -SEUS II- is the primary thing, it search and detects and call for the proper/correct firmware and automatically install it on your phone.

                I can understand your fear completely.
                Listen, if you have all your other basic needs and don't have anything missing, then it's very fair to reward yourself for saving for one whole year -preventing yourself from several things that could be done with that money- with a nice candy, as long as the money paied for thet candy won't affect negativly on other things.
                As long as K750 is a dream to you, then nothing should prevent you from making your dream come true ,and don't worry, you've worked hard to get to that dream and fulfilling your wish is already justified.
                My target is to get a BMW car, I'm saving for that, once I get it, maybe it won't match my normal house or clothes, but my house and clothes just suits me enough, I don't need more than what I already have in these two fields, so why should I not enjoy my little candy as long as I've already paied for it and that I have no shortages in other fields ??
                Got my point ??

                Both MS Duo and MS Duo Pro are supported by k750.
                MS Duo is slower and cheaper than MS Duo Pro with a max capacity of 128 MB, while MS Duo Pro is available up to 2 GB, keep in mind that SE K750 max. supported MS size is 4 GB -so you can get a memory stick of 32 MB, 64 MB and 128 MB of both MS Duo & MS Duo Pro types, I'de choose MS Duo, for price difference doesn't match the speed difference-.
                The phone will be SLIGHTLY slower only when you open a folder which is stuffed with data/files -this is normal and it even happens in my PC with my fast processor and hard disk-, but the general performance of the phone won't be affected, so you can get the 2 GB MS Duo Pro and rest assured that your device performance will remain the same.
                I recommend Sandisk, faster -with a large margin-, cheaper -1 GB coasts 700 EP (egyptian pound), while Sony coasts 1100 EP in my country !- and also Sandisk is a brand known to be reliable.
                Sony is the giant, that's no doubt -one of its fans myself-, but I'm even fan-er -can I say that ?!- to my hard earned money, and I'm not that person to bay more for just a brand name with worst results than other "less in popularity" brand products, and Sony simply loses to Sandisk in your question field.

                  Hey guys...
                  I wanted to know about the best memory stick to put in the phone. I mean is memstick duo pro compatible or only memory stick duos? And what's the highest capacity it can support without becoming visibly slow? And is Sony better or San Disk? thanks in advance... ;-D

                    Jack:

                    Thanks for the heads up. Will try 3GP conversion today. In the mean time, I filled up my 2g MS Duo with 500+ MP3 songs (used up 1.73G in the process). The sound quality rocks for a mobile phone! Everyday is a new day with this phone. Great so far...

                          1st things first for k750i accesories go to ebay i got a 1gb memstik a clear plastic case which makes the phone look really shiny and u cant see it hardly.

                          2nd

                          i am sory to say but there is no bug or problems with transfering the files to ure phone through usb the problem is with the pc becos it does not tell u when it has finished transferiing so when u pull ure cable out all ure songs wont be there.

                          to fix this problem wait 60 secs when u put a song in the ringtones folder then put an other in.......after all songs are in click the remove hardware icon in the corner where it has the time on ure pc....click it then it says ok click ok then pull usb cable out!!!! there u go the solution to solving the usb data cable problem.

                              Is it possible to load whole movies in 2GB MS for me to view in my k750? I travel a lot and find myself in airports for hrs. It sure can help to have a video entertainment in my phone... appreciate any heads up. :)
