    So i found a different website to download it onto the pc and i just copied it into my card.
    box.net/shared/9yyoj3roc4

    The application loads fine, but only only like 3 videos have worked so far and i still get this error with 99% of the other videos i click on.

    javax.microedition.media.mediaexception: failed to start playback

    Any help would be great! I just wanna fix this because it was one of the reasons for getting this phone. wifi and style :(

          Does anyone know if this
          phone is louder than the W580i?
          I've got a W910i now and was
          really disappointed to find
          out it was way quieter.

          Cheers!

            Price range in Pune is around 15800 Rs. up to 16400 Rs.

            I mentioned 13000 Rs. earlier and its not the case anymore. It seems the oldman jacked up the price of his items

              my firmware says its the latest and i have reinstalled the software 3 times :(

              Maybe the youtube application i got from a mirror link isnt the latest? I'll see if i can find another one.

              I'm not sure how the work that link you sent me. I've installed it but it wont let me load up anything ending with .com or too long (like a direct youtube vid with a long url). I will prob need a readme on that.

              I appreciate all the help you're giving me :)

                        If there are drawbacks on this phone, these are only minor issues like slow media centre (just update firmware), built-in speaker is not so loud, camera is average but with good colour rendering.

                        Anyway, the passionate red comes with a free speaker out of the box.

                                    Hard to find settings first but Ipod Videos are compatible to this phone. Watching youtube videos in average quality only.

                                        Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970maybe u dunno wad is Sony Ericsson doing ...

                                        Sony Ericsson create good sound through earphone, and not speaker while nokia is opposite way...

                                        Sony Ericsson need to use their earphone like HPM-77 and HPM-88 to get a more better sound( those 2 earphone suppost clear bass and clear stereo)

                                        Nokia Xpress Music is better in loud sound through speaker, but will disturbing others around u (I hate those ppl who on their phone speaker loud on the bus)

                                        If u like to use the earphone, go for Sony, While if u like to hear voice loud, go for nokia Xpress Music ... (If u wan to sms faster, dun buy 5800)
