    TyTN thanks for the description :) it looks cool. i cant wait to try out in the W580.

    im actually just waiting for a while so that maybe SE can resolve the keypad problem. I think this phone is great and looks cool too :D

      Yes, you can use the camera in landscape mode.
      It works like this:
      -choose landscape mode
      -take one photo and when taking the second you can see the edge (transparent) of the first one
      -line it with the scenery for the second photo and
      -take another photo
      -repeat the process to take the third and last one
      ---now you have three photos in one, a landscape photo :))

      about the mp3 ringtone:
      of course you can use your own mp3s as ringtones. But it seems that a/some provider(s) messed up and locked it. That's why I hate locked/branded phones. It will be OK if you get an unlocked one.

        can u use the camera in landscape mode? and is true that u cant set MP3 as ringtones?

        that would help with my descition between W580i and W610i

          No problem, dude! :)
          You'll have fun with the panorama shots, I'm sure. Not only because you can show a wider angle, but also because you can combine different things in one photo. It's up to your imagination, really. :)
          Don't forget to leave your review here when you've tested it.
          :)

              i email an SE representative and they told me that a 4GB M2 card works just fine. and i think someone here has already been using it with no problem. so dont worry about the memory card size guys. the only thing now is the keypad. if they fix it, i m sure to buy it..

                I have had my w580i for 3 weeks now, and as much as i love the desing and the music, it has been a problem since the first day, it is plagued with software problems, and my button has just this minute cracked, rather worried as i work for a mobile retailer and have sold a lot of these. Frome experience if this does happne to you it's worth waiting a few weeks more before putting it in for repair, unless it's with in it's 28 day refund and exchange period, as more than likely SE have already dispatched or are working on improved buttons for repair centers to replace the cracked ones. Real big shame, love the phone other wise.

                                    about the panorama shot:
                                    even my very old SE K700i could take panorama shots.
                                    It was great, even for a vga camera (that was the most advanced one when it came out, as you probably remember).
                                    With a 2mp cam, wow!! LOL
