    Anyone can suggest some good websites for free themes on this phone? Tried the Sony Website but couldn't download it from the My Contents folder using WAP.

        just continuing my message, sum guy said 256MB is not enough to play videos, well he is wrong, because of the 2 inch screen size, converting a movie into mp4 or 3gp, u need to shrink the size to fit in the player's screen, so a typical 4 minute music video will take only 8 to 20MB, and the available memory is around 200MB (50sumthing megabyte for internal software)

            just replying to sum guy about playing movies, this phone, actually no phone supports mpg, mpeg,etc Only 3gp and mp4. well except the AKmobile DV2 an AK900, which supports avi files, to watch videos, u need a 3gp/mp4 converter which converts the mpg, mp2,mpeg,rm,rmvb etc into playable mp4 or 3gp

              Here in the Phil. right now W550 and 6630 has the same price BUT:
              Memory:
              for a techi person 256 mb is more than enough.
              Video:
              Dont compare the video quality while you are recording the video.
              Compare it after you have save the video and transfer it to the computer.
              Then you will see the real quality.
              Sound:
              The sound is good especially with a high quality audio file.

                                  Hey Majidah,

                                  I had the K700 and then bought the w550. The w550 is great and I much prefer it to the K700. I love the fact that it has a USB cable, makes connecting and transfering great. The sound and MP3 on the w550 is amazing too. I am delighted with it.

                                      I already have a Nokia 2600. I want a phone mainly for mp3 + FM (+ decent camera if possible).
                                      Can someone advice me what should i do?

                                      - Get W550i

                                      - Get K750i

                                      - Get W800i (little tough on budget)

                                      - Get iPOD nano + keep N2600 (i think iPOD dont have FM).

                                        hey guys, i got this phone two months back and
                                        here are all of its negative points
                                        -os is not as stable. the phone may hang sometimes if you load more than a couple of app.
                                        -phone does not support video playback resolution more than 176*144. so fullscreen mode is interpolated, and quality goes dam low
                                        -keypad feels cramped until u get used to it
                                        -limited memory may be a issue for power users, otherwise its enough for normal usage though
                                        -hey dat bright orange flip tends to get dirty very easily and cannot be cleaned. my turned dark.
                                        -the flash led is good for use as a torch at night but helps little while taking snaps.
                                        -its 1.3mp camera is worst i hv ever seen. noise catches up even in normal lighting conditions.outdoor photos come out good but could have been much better.
                                        -loud speaker during call is very average

                                        for the pros the list is endless.
                                        i have fallen in love with this phone.
                                        if the cons dont mind you ,just grab it. its just for u
