      i think the w810i is one of our best phones on the market but why the exposure of the screen? i think its great that SE started providing EDGE for there user!!!

        had this fone switched to the e900 and am glad i did so did not like this at all the only good thing was that you could use themes for it even though it was cool for music i still find i hated the design and the everyday use of the fone became annoying if anyone knows if you can use themes on the e900 post me a link .......tnks

              Hi, I'm having trouble deciding whether to get the W810i or the W900i hehe! Any help would be appreciated. I've been reading reviews about how the swivel-action of the W900i gets annoying and the poor battery life. Which phone would be better to buy? And is there any disadvantages with the screen not being embedded? Cheers!

                  @Ishuaia ..

                  Just go to www.sonyericsson.com and then find the w810i software page. You can update the UpdateService application by just downloading UpdateService_Inst**.exe and the UpdateService**.pdf for instruction...
                  Simply follow the instruction.
                  Your firmware will be updated by just connecting your fone to PC w/ internet connection thru usb cable .
                  (w810i in shutdown mode with batt but w/o sim card)

                      I've got this fone last monday and I'm still shocked and amazed for the design and features when I tried the actual unit even I have checked all the pics & reviews from different sites for several months and able to jot down all the nice tips and info's on this forum ( thanx to Arj & Carbonize and the rest here) ..
                      I've experienced also the minor bugs (flashing light like SOS mode,etc) on the 1st day and it was fixed after I downloaded the latest firmware here in Asia/Phils
                      "R4DB005" and all my files and settings are still intact after this process.

                      SE Rocks!...
                      It's a matter of personal taste if you will go for W810, W800 or K750 ... These fones are all great and the walkman/2mp camera features are really amazing.
                      My officemates are all amazed with its design & features.


                      I have few questions:
                      1. Is there a way to remove the "carrier name" on the top center of the screen?
                      2. Is the MMS setting network dependent or do I need to check the setting from sony website? I have tried sending MMS from my motorola but it fails.

                      Thanks..

                        @ maria

                        its not out yet :D
                        it supposed to be coming out in september/Q3 (three quarters of the year) and even if it comes out in september it wont be available on P.A.Y.G for a long time and it wont be cheap when does become available on P.A.Y.G.

                        my advice is only buy this phone if you really want it but at the end of te day all the walkman phones do te same things but have something extra added to them like w850i phone has 3G and w810i has EDGE and w900i swivel phone/3g(but dat fne is pretty ugly :P).

                        only get w850i phone if you can afford monthly contract and even for that, you have to be prepared to wait until it copmes out and find the cheapest deal :D and i currently have no phone just becoz im prepared to save up and get this phone on u-fix when it comes out hehe

                                    Is "firmware" one and the same as "software"? Is the software update offered in the Sony Ericsson site "the firmware" that people are talking about?
