to mnd,
YES!! it does solve (or cause) the problem. my bad! i guess because the camera button is more exposed in the W610i, i didn't realise i was pressing it while composing my messages. thanks mnd! this has put my mind to rest, and saved me a trip to a service center! lol
to sharon,
yes after you have ejected both the phone and phone card external drivers, you can just go ahead and pull the USB connector out. then the phone returns to the standby screen on its own.
nice review by max, and yes WE LOVE THIS PHONE! :)

the speaker is loud and nice.
the menu is super fast without lag.
design is super nice.

loudspeaker when phoning is super clear.
if u wan to have a new phone, recommend this to u! super nice o~!!!

I bought this phone a week ago (09May), The phone is great IMO, but just like every other electronic equipments, there is some "factory defect", in MY phone, it randomly have a white screen of death, when I watch a video in its video player, after 1 video, the screen will turn black you must press any key to view the video again, I guess its a glitch in my phone, I do have the latest software... and lastly, the back cover (for the battery) is kinda loose...well I guess I will return this one, tough luck for me...

To Panduka, go for this phone dis sounds gud...dont think of K750 coz its 3-4 years old now, w810 is a cool phone too...if u wanna get a nokia one go for N73 or N95.

Sony ericsson w610 the slim and sexy sony.I've been using this phone for more than a month now. I am a hard core user and so i've given my phone a really hard time ;)
What does w610 have in store for us.
Typical Sony ericsson display (clear, bright and a wee bit larger than the w810 and w830 in terms of the size of the screen)
A really good loud speaker
Good external speakers dock along with the package
Super fast repsonsive menus
512mb external memory with 64mb internal memory (supports 2gb cards)
Powerful java gaming
Walkman 2.0 player
Brilliant FM with RDS
EDGE and nifty browser
Good call quality
and Good battery life (lasts more than 36 hours )
Now the description- The phone is really slim and feels good to hold. I generally use the walkman player for around three to four hours a day. Have loaded some 20 + java games and mostly play those games while listening to music. Send some 100 sms and make calls for some 60 minutes. Apart from this i also change wallpapers every two hours and just for the heck of it take some snaps and fiddle with the camera now and then (cos i bought the phone recently). Trust me on this. With all this load on the phone it is able to sustain 60% battery by the time i sleep. The phone also has very good multi tasking capabilities as i can run the walkman in the background, compose msgs and in between play games too. The speed of the game doesnt reduce at all.
The negatives-The buttons on the phone are really small. Really tough to get used to writing msgs on the phone if u have large fat fingers. Many times u end up with typos. For this u have to use your fingers sideways so that you don't press two or more keys at the same time. Camera is not as good as the k750 or w810 as the focus is 1mm lesser.Though it cannot equal the quality of the k750 and cybershot sony phones it is better than all of the other 2Mpx cameras on the other brand phones. The camera is really good in bright light outdoors and the flash light does help in areas with low light.Since the phone has autofocus the photos come out crisp unlike the other brands. The macro mode too is worth mentioning.
As a conclusion if you are looking for good music which u can readily expect from the walkman phones and if u want an all rounder slim phone with all the functionality you can name then w610 (the successor to w810) is the best phone your money can get.

I've had this fone for some time now, and i tell you its great!! Everything you need in one handset. music, camera and a fone!
however, ive ran into a few problems. mainly sometimes but rarely the keypad buttons don't work or they 'reset', meaning if i want to type 'I' i press the 4 button three times, but instead three 'G' come out. it goes away after some time and a few button presses. i'm not sure if this is a hardware or firmware problem but my software is one of the early ones.
the second is the problem of the spine buttons, the PAUSE/PLAY and VOLUME buttons sinking in after time. i noticed that these buttons are further into the recess than when i bought them. the click and give are slightly 'muted' but they work just like before. i'm only concerned about the long term result of this. has any other user encountered the same two problems?
so there you have my side of the story. it seems with SE the quality standard is lacking and quality consistancy varies for its products. the model may have a few problems as a whole, but all coming from different owners. i'm sure only a few have the same problems in common.

i've had the w610i for a while now and i love everything about it. i'd rather have some standard keys instead these ridiculous ones but unless you have huge hands you'll get used to it(i've got pretty big hands and got used to it in a couple days)
