SE's SMS memory is not shared with the phone memory.. it has its own capacity. Why you need to store 1000 sms for?

    how many messages this phone can store?
    i've got a little over a hundred sms in my inbox and around 68 in my sent folder. a message prompt out saying it's 95% full. crazy, my ngage only had about 3Mb inboard memory, and manages to store >1000 messages. this one has 10times more than that but only allows us to store 100++ messages? Ohhh, no!

          After having this phone for 10 days I have liked the design feel and build quality of this phone until this morning when my screen isn't working anymore.

          Over all I think the phone is good but just the same as any phone you can buy, I got this phone after a long line of Nokia's that only get improved from one model to the next and I just felt like a change. After getting used to layout between the phones I have realised that they are the same.

          I am really disappointed with the camera on the phone as the quality is well crap compared to my digi cam. if you want to see picture examples you can see them here: http://spaces.msn.com/members/awindowtomylife the creamfields pictures where taken with this phone. all others with my digi cam.

                  I was wondering if someone could help me with what seems a trivial problem.How do you rename photos taken by the phones camera.It doesnt have a rename option unlike photos that are sent to you and are stored in pictures.Thanks

                  P.S This phone is just great!

                          Oh god, this going nowhere. What happens if japanese people do not use their own products???
                          There are some facts. Whether japanese people do use sony or not sony is the best brand in electronics. In phones, sony ericsson is just as good as nokia if not better. I used to be such a guy, nokia rules, all else crap.
                          And how do you know japanese people do not use sony ericsson? Have you asked them all? And you told that they think ibm the best computers. Than that's a reason not to trust them right? Ibm is just crap. nothing more.
                          All these put aside, if japanese people said all of a sudden sony ericsson is the best nokia is a bad brand, what would you do? say that sony ericsson is the best phone? Nah, come on, whether you agree or not this phone is better than every phone nokia has at the moment. I don't give a damn about 8800 or N90. 8800 doesn't even have memory card! N90, a really good phone but not as good as this one.
                          Please do not try to use other people's opinions to talk bad about this one. And you don't even know what the general public in Japan think of sony ericsson.
                          I checked D600's specifications and could not see anything that would make that one beter than this one. Please point those specs that you think is better.
                          I Understand that a lot of people love nokia, I like nokia as well. But just because nokia is your prefered brand in phones doesn't mean that sony ericsson is bad. "please go away from our market!" what the hell?! This sound like 10-year-old children. I can't understand, if you don'like classical music can you say that beethoven sucks? I don't like eric clapton, but he is good musician. I don'T say he shouldn't play or something like that. All I can think of your reaction at the moment is that you have given a lot of money for your "best" nokia phones and can't stand to see a better phone with a better price.
                          This will get nowhere. Sony ericsson is good. And W800i is the best entertainment phone on the market. Be it camera, be it mp3 player. It kicks ass. Nokia should do better than what they have done until now for your words to be reasonable...

                            i see a lot of people talking about rubbish

                            mark my words the tels that will make the whole phone industry jump to the next lvl are the nokia NOKIA N91,SAMSUNG D600,W800I(SAME AS K750),NOKIA N90,PANASONIC VS7 these phones will play a big part off all the phones that are comming from now on caus the next generation phone will meet al your so i can tell u u wwildest dreams caus the tehcnologi is rising very fast. look at the difference between the phones from 2 years ago and the recent phones there is a major difference and i think that the next generation will be FANTASTIC!! SO GET EXITED!!!!!

                                  i saw a person posting exactly the same post in the 8800 with eu support's post in this forum. I wonder if they are the same person... just a bit odd though, coz he doesn't put his name down on the 8800 forum haha... aniwae... adding up my comment about this phone:

                                  in terms of application N90 is definitely better than this phone--> since N90 is a smart 3G and 2.75G phone and W800 is only a 2.5G phone. As a MP3 player--> w800 rocks man!! and the camera is confirmed that it is better than N90, although only slightly, go to mobile-review forum.. you will find this phone fight, its really hot.

                                  One thing that i disagree is that saying that this phone is rubbish. Only ppl who never gone to school will say this. Although this phone is not better in terms of application and tech (3G... bla bla bla) this phone wins in price (cheaper), size (smaller), battery life and absolutely, camera+MP3 (and flash? i do not see that N90 has a flash though--> tell me if i am wrong.. it is good to have flash).

                                  If you are mentioning about rubbish phone, i will tell you it is:
                                  N8800, N7260, N7280

                                    And if you say that japanese do not use their own product, can i ask you a question?
                                    Do you actually love to use your own country product? honestly say, i never trust them. I prefer the one made by foreign country coz they are always better than mine---> this is pretty much the way japanese ppl think.. My fren a japanese girl says that she hates japanese ppl and won't married any one of them. She even say: "i wonder why so many ppl say that japan is great? i am japanese but i never think that they are great"
                                    (i am refering to "off our market" for this post and my previous post)
                                    And no matter that the battery life doesn't go as it is claim, N90 doesn't perform even better than that.. go to N90 forum, you will find that a lot of users complaint about the battery life, which is poorer than W800i.
                                    And lastly, i actually doubt about your saying that the MP3 quality is no better than P900.. do you actually got the handset?
                                    NO other users apart from you complaint about the MP3 quality.---> same goes to se go away... i think you just simply bash the phone because you hate SE. (imagine if this phone is by nokia.. what will you say?)
                                    BTW... Nokia's new phone has a very short battery life---> N90 and 8800. So many ppl complaint about that.

                                      i agree with you about the casing that easily gets dirty and looks cheap. I also agree that somehow walkman is to trick ppl, but not really if you compare to nokia that claim their CZ lens on N90. Its a market gimmick you know.. its only borrowing CZ name. The lens is really by CZ, but the camera sensor sux.. so.. if you do not like the phone.. its simple, this phone is not for you. Regardless to whatever you say.. this phone interest me still.

                                        I Maybe thick, But what was the Point of the Se W800i Its totally identical as K750I which i have apart from the Memory Card Which i have been told you can put a 1GB in a K750I, the Thing i hate about this thins in teh camera design on the back Tell what would be good is a the K608 3G Phone with k750i Phone. siler front and black back
