    I've had my phone for two months now and I love that I've been able to stop carrying an iPod around to listen to music. Definitely have to use the headphones since the speaker is worse than my old Nokia 6330. That's too bad, since ringtones and message tones don't sound so clear. What I'm most disappointed about is the software for managing music, especially podcasts. It's really annoying to have to delete files from my computer, and then when I plug in the phone, there's no option to sync. Instead I must manually delete the same files I just deleted on the computer. It can't compare AT ALL to iTunes, and the transfer rate to the phone is SLOOOOW. Anyway, for looks and slim factor, I'm very happy with it.

      Dani, 10 Sep 2008It has it.Dani, can you tell me how to set that? Please note that I would like for the phone to vibrate a few times BEFORE the ringing starts. I like this feature because it allows me to answer the phone quickly before the ringing starts. Thanks.

                Does this phone allow you to set the ring tone to vibrate a few times before it starts ringing? I have become used to this feature on my Motorola Razr V3, and would like to have that in my next phone.

                Thanks.

                          I just got the W890. But it doesn't have the currency converter, which is very useful for me since I travel a lot. I just need the manual convertor where we key in ourself the exchange rate between 2 currencies. Does anyone know of a good website with free download for this kind of manual currency converter, please?

                                Anyone had problems with the ringtones. Specific problem is not the speaker or playing options. The phone just doesn't ring anymore.

                                Software updated and everything else seems to work fine. Any ideas?

They have a low sound quality. About the design and style you can definetely see the diffrence. All the mobile phones' ads & pics present the phones in a wonderful way. When you buy it you find it less. Well in the sonyericsson its the same. The diffrence is when you have it you find it more.
