    to san,
    i try to help other w800i owners as much as i can. i really love this phone. i have a black silicon case and i always take it out phone im sitting down cuz i just love its appearance.
    ANYWAYS, the thing about the mp3 message tone is right. it only plays the tone for 10 sec. i havent searched far enough to see if this setting can be changed. i know that the mp3 RINGTONE can be set to a max 30 sec before it goes to voicemail. Check out these sites for help with the w800i and other SE phones:

          Hi Hakeem,
          i dont agree with the idea of playing SMS tone till end of song. primarily because in case you are unavailable or dont wanna see SMS now, then the song will play on and on and on..
          I will say this is good work by SE to restrict SMS tone for 10 seconds...

          Thumbs Up from Me..

            This phone is just awesome. I have used many high end phones in Nokia but this phone beats in every aspect when compared to Nokia phones. I was planning to buy Nokia N70 but in the end i decided to buy this. I purchased this phone for 540Dollars [around 23000 INR] I am very happy with this phone. If u hav money, then but this phone. Dont think about others.
            Adv- Light weight, decent looks, excellent camera, Deadly music quality, good screen and good FM quality. Very good earphones.

            Disadv- Battery drains quickly and is not upto the mark as sony claims. Buttoms are a bit small. Some problems with the Disc2phone software while transferring mp3 files. No mpeg to rm/3gpp converter provided in the CD.
            Any problems mail me at dhananjay99@gmail.com

            Overall a very good phone. Cheers!

                      for the unit that i bought, the battery life is awesome. no problem with losing battery life even when im playing a game or listening to mp3 and/or both! or when taking pix.
                      In the comparison with the k750i, this is better just because its branded as a walkman, which has a the option of just using the mp3 player.
                      In compareison with the w900 and w550, w550 is out of the question so we can eliminate that.
                      The w900 is just a newer version of the w800i. i like the w800 because i prefer its appearance compared to the slider. however, the w900 DOES have better internal memory. and it has EDGE.
                      i wonder if we (w800 and k750 owners) can "upgrade" our sofware/firmware/whatever you call it

                          hi to everyone,

                          Aside from SE w800 or k750, why not consider the SAMSUNG i300 because i believe i300 is the ultimate music phone which can play WMA,WAV and MP3 files and you can set them as ringtones with no conversion.

                            Also, can you imput better quality movies files eg. Mpeg/avi onto your phone. but not using 3gp format? the movies just look terrible with 3gp...

                            I tried converting to MP4 and putting them on but it comes up with blank screen and only sound

                            any solution?

                            thanks again from Caspa

                              All i got was a ScanDisc Memory Stick Duo Adaptor so that the card can be read by readers... i use usb cord anyways, heaps easier...

                                i know the review said that the standard package contains a USB memory card reader, but i didnt read any in the sony ericsson site. just wanna ask, when you guys bought it, did it come with a usb memory card reader?
                                thanks guys. i want to get this one, together with the accessories in the sony site

                                        I have just got the phone the other day, surely i like the camera, but others are all right comparing with the sgh e730 i had. does anyone know whether there is any phone lock (not lock when starting phone) like nokia has, so that no one person cant misuse my phone?tks.
