    cool handset; the SIM slot is annoying though! so hard to insert and even harder to remove. Does anyone know a nifty way to remove the SIM?

        is it true that this phone does not have flash on the camera? if it is true how does it affect night time pics?

                I just got my phone back from being serviced under warranty for the cracked keypads, looks like all SE worldwide has recognized the problem, covered under warranty. The new keypad is sturdier at least, feels thicker, I'll post to see how well it holds up in a week or 2.

                  The cracking problem, only occurs for green phones, and the reason why there was cracking in the first place was because of the plastic used to make the keys and the green paint didn’t play nice, but the yellow phones fine

                          The phone is currently priced at Rs 10400 with warranty in India which equals 257USD. Cheaper than in the US ???!!!

                                  The yellow one is more for the ladies.

                                  The lighting effects are cool.

                                  Also has stereo widening, but the sound through the speakerphone is not as good as the N95 when playing Mp3's.

                                      If the week 27 thing is true, then only those black one that produced before week 27 were affected with the keypad problem. I just got mine yesterday and it was week 28 product so hopefully nothing happen to me.
