    About the lens cover guys,yes it doesnt have a cover but i think the company it not that stupid to just leave the lens open to any danger!, i am more than sure that it has a plastic glass cover just like most of NOKIA's does,so if something happened we can just change the cover of the phone and the main lens would be always safe under it. who agrees with what i am thinking??!

        striker- they meant that it was based on the technology. this meant that it would be easier for companies (service providers) to make the conversion and accessibility from 2g to 3g. it is also a simpler system to UMTS.

          WOW dude! really cool answers there!
          too bad this phn doesnt come with 3mgpx camera...or else it'll be THE NEW GADGET TO GET for 2006! wonder if there're any software upgrades for the w810...im jus glad they lost the joystick cuz for my w800 the joystick is gettin kinda loose (oopsy for w800 fans)ONE QN THOUGH: ANY PICS ON THE WHITE ONE? cuz i tink the black one really kicks a punch...a fresh color as compared to the white/orange funky feel for the w800...SE shd look into express on covers...or at least limited edition snap ons for ppl who wan a special feel/outlook for their phns and willing to PAY for it =)
          for now only NK N80 will haf 3mgpx camera embedded...not to mention WI-FI...but their phns are always so bulky when they're feature full...SE stil beats them in packaging n size =p GO SE GO!!

              thank you for your comments. oh i made a mistake. there is not protective plastic in this phone. if you look at photos, then you can access that there is a bulge/protrution that fully engulfs the camera. this means it protects the lens(in case you drop the phone) but does not hinder the cameras view. there is however a cheap and easily fixable plastic cover over LCD(has the same functions as the bulge)

                    Fantastic post, absolutely superb.

                    Although the EDGE thing did puzzle me a bit - I was always under the impression that EDGE was an upgraded form of 2G data transfer, and therefore the ideal feature for non 3g handsets. I take it from your post that I'm wrong about this????????

                      I WILL buy this phone. But i hope it´s not slow like W800. Otherwise this "phone" would be perfect! Does anyone know what the price would be?

                          damn you people really like this phone

                          RXZ5- the phone should be released end of Q1 2006

                          Mr Nice guy- i agree. small,beautiful, and full of functions

                          w800 fan- yes it will come with it. it will be standard with all the walkman phones of the future

                          sam- yes it will be the same bcos the internal memory represented shows the excess memory that we as the user can access and therefore all shared phone functions and abilities will be the same in effectiveness

                          San in the official press release it says it should be released before the end of march(Q1 2006). should be accurate like with w900

                          :) - the pixels is just right for a screen of that size. if you put more it will become blurry

                          Jack- the phone looks better, its newer(means better firmware), it has EDGE which means quicker downloads. who cares if EDGE is unpopular it is faster than GPRS

                          suxoid- watch what you say. UMTS= 3g. it is the frequency 2100 that NAmerica does not support.it can support 850 though.

                          jo- who cares about polyphonic ringtones. This is a WALKMAN PHONE and walkman=MP3
                          honestly what would you rather have/ care about

                          crossmatched- they did not need to introduce it positively. lens covers are not prerequisite in making a good phone. it is an option. the only reason why the w800 had one was because if you look at the back of the phone the was a lot of focus towards this area(silver ring)

                          drsilverwoman- no lens cover is not such a big deal. deceased memory is also not drastic(still have mem card). worse battery is a result of sony tweaking the battery so that over a longer time(2 years) the phone will still have a long battery life. also a result of battery becoming smaller

                          James- i agree with you. EDGE is ust a convenience, because some people like/ have to go on the internet through their phones. anyway you can do everything on the internet that you do on the computer on the phone(that is connected to the phone)

                          tony- hoooooooooold it man. dont be too drastic. it is a nice phone, but w900 is allround a better phone(except for size)

                          zeeshan-SE obiously no what they are doing. just like nokia they no that you can get around have a lens protector by intergrating a protective plastic layer that is part of the back cover over the lens. so that if the phone is dropped the plastic breaks and not the lens. this also means that you ust replace the cover, not the camera

                          andrei_ro- less int mem., more ext mem, EDGE new firmware

                          San- read what i said to zeeshan

                          Umer- what it means is that you can connect an external internet account to your phone, and the emails will automatically be sent through to your phone. you do not have to manually ask it to search for new mail.

                          AMH- nice summary

                          mike- it is possible to connect the bluetooth headphones to the phone through 3.5mm ack if headphones come with a earphone jack connector based bluetooth base

                          Ezekiel- yes it will. the phone is a step forward, not back

                          AHM- there is such a thing as a perfect phone. it will be a screen that performs all the fuctions that can be thought of. it will automatically update itself and its features as time goes on.
                          And which company do you think is going to make it. none. it will be made by the minds of us the consumer, and the geniuses that come to these type og forums like me, you, striker to mention a few. but once it comes out, there will be no competition. no need for companies,workers. people will become jobless, and the worlds economy will get worse. it is out there, but we do not need it yet

                          ...=] you can try calling a head office, or marketing and tell them how you feel. obviously they will only listen if you have proof that there is need for such a phone. a simple way would be to create an internet patition. if you get more than 1000 then the company will think twice, bcos that will a quick half-million pounds

                          AMH- EDGE = 3G = UMTS.
                          they are all 3g. UMTS is just faster. oh and do you really think that it would be possible not to switch EDGE off. i mean if you could not, then the w810 battery would be very strong to reach such lengths of battery life.

                          Denny- read what i said to zeeshan

                          kirk- i do not know where you have been. rather buy a rokre2, you must be crazy. THIS PHONE IS BETA THAN A W800. and how can you tell me that black+silver+orage=gay

                          Striker- what do you mean"people who don't have 3g data transfer need EDGE."?read the next paragraph

                          TO ALL- i do not know how many times i have had to say this. EDGE = 3g UMTS = 3g. if you have no 3g=no EDGE=no UMTS. UMTS is faster ust because it is in the first group of 3g technology, which are the group that is a completely new system. EDGE is more of an upgrade to 2g technolgy. together with the rest of acronyms in this group, it will be upgraded over time, and become as good, if not beta than the UMTS group.

                          oh damn, i am getting this phone the moment it is available

                            ha ha ha you tell him Dazz!!!! Quite how a telephone can be homosexual I do not know..... Maybe he's in denial and trying to deflect the confusing feelings he has and can't control. Barrymore had the same problem when he got married!

                            Kirk, people who don't have 3g data transfer need EDGE. The W810 is an UPGRADE to the W800 with improved features so how can the W800 be better? So what was the point in ANYTHING you've just said?

                            And as for the gay comments - like I say, must be denial. Be true to who you are Kirk, cos all this anger you have is being misdirected towards a poor defenceless mobile phone. You've been hiding away in the closet for too long. Time to come out.

                                    This is good phone but like W900, it doesn't have lens cover.

                                      It's a good phone, but i prefere the w900i for two major things.
                                      The first is the 3G, 3G has higher download speed than edge, and at the same time it can be switched off to save battery, unlike the edge!
                                      Second i like the design of the w900i far more than w810i, though w810i has a good touch of design.
