    Bought this a couple months ago.

    Keypad broke about after a week, i was super pissed. After a few days though, you realize its not a big deal. (but i have a 3 year unlimited extended warrenty) Amazing phone besides that.

      If this phone really does have crappy buttons, that would suck a whole bunch. It is a really nice phone. I've been wanting it too. =)

        I've read from a forum that the cracked keys only happen on the green paint (too bad... the green is the nice one :()

              does the key cracking only occur in the mysterious green phone?

                  i have a fren who bought this phone. Basically after few months of using it the slide mechanism has worn out and the top part of the phone shakes (after the phone is slid open). I was told that this was SE's first attempt at the S series. Is it so?? Is an S510 coming out( or at least something similar.) By the way the phone has the sexiest lights my eyes have set on. SO i cant wait for a similar phone with better slide mechanism.

                  If you know more abt this pls email me.

                  Thanks

                                  okay guys, i now have my black & green s500i so im a very happy person. been using it for about a day now, keypad feels VERY solid.. they might have actually changed the keypad (well im hoping). no signs of cracks yet and doubt there will be. My model is a week 40! i was stoked to see they actually released models that late in production so perhaps another plus. What can i say, im used to Nokia's and always have been but this fone has won me over to the dark side, the sound quality is amazing. Loudest fone ive eva had, the camera is super functional, easy to take pics and has a great thumbnail viewer. I got myself a 1gb card and yet to fill it, one downside i must say is sometimes the camera wont actually take a photo and i have to restart it. happened a few times so far, hope theres a firmware update soon. speaking of which u can actually update ur fone over the internet which is a MAJOR plus, no more pesky phone stores meddling with my fone :) overall id have to give the fone a solid 9.5/10.. it really is quite a machine ^_^

                                    AS IT READS: the built in memory is 12 MB!!!
                                    You can get upto a 2 GB memory card-M2- and expand the storage!
                                    Please read carefully.

                                      to answer ur questions:
                                      1. Yes the keypad cracks. read comments below.
                                      2. sound quality is better than nokia's
                                      3. 12mb internal memory. you have to buy the external memory upto 4Gb separately.
                                      4. yes, the theme chages depending on the time/season.
                                      5. for me the picture quality is decent enough. :)
