WHEN i was in vodastore i was going on how xperia has all of s/e trademarks in one device i.e. cybershot,,walkman,megabass,,fullvga vid etc and said that i am getting it when and if it comes out and the store lass said "if it comes that is"which did not seem hopefull..
All s/e need to do is bring out an xperia type fone without o/s and it would really sell,,who cares about windows/symbian wen you got opera mini,,google maps,,ebay the lot and a stopwatch!!!!! on a non smartfone these days plus they run quicker ad dont freeze crashetc

    Dani , 07 Aug 2008Ok i just remembered!!! W810i is the Phone of all Phones... morethanx dani,,i have been into voda and they have a k750i in silver but it wont accept 8gb micro its sonys micro 2 by the way i have not micro sd sorry i should have wrote it betterr but the k770i fits the bill perfect its all k750i with more pixels in screen and good battery..the cam is 3mp but that does not matter i always say that the best fotos ive taken come from w900i and k750i years back and they are 2mp..

    I have spent 6hours on se forums last night/early morning and the w800i which people are still using and w810i seem top mobiles to this day and they are modding them etc and would not give up the fone unless something comes along to better it..I dont know if you watch bbc clicj but a few weeks ago they had a video done by w810i to video an old platform game and it was possible cause the w810i had pause video said presenter...Altho ive had n6630/6680 n73 n95 n958gb and n82 you cannot beat a small slim fone in your pocket with goo battery and does nearly all the things a smarfone can do but as ive said on many posts symbian does still not have a stopwatch/timer which i do use but s/e does as standard

              brynn, 07 Aug 2008dani,,which s/e fone are using please...I have spent weeks ... moreOk i just remembered!!!

              W810i is the Phone of all Phones of SE its the King..

              it is Walkman + Cyber-Shot in 1 Phone

              Honestly..i have a W810i to and its Camera Quality is as Good as K800i and K850i !!
              yeah its a 2MP but its just like a Cyber-Shot!! Performs the same, feels the same, Quality is the same
              and since its a Walkman its Rocks!!! and yes it will work with 8GB !! iv tried it and it did work..

              I reccomend you the W810i, its Perfection!

                brynn, 07 Aug 2008dani,,which s/e fone are using please...I have spent weeks ... moreI Dont think SE would ever put Walkman and Cyber-Shot in 1..

                and K770i doesnt have Signal or Battery Problems..

                what i would do if i had an 8GB MicroSD on the loose like you, i would just buy a XpressMusic Nokia or something....

                  dani,,which s/e fone are using please...I have spent weeks going round and round and round theses se fones and want auto-focus so this fone is out but k and c phones have a good player in them plus c702 has qvga @ 30fps ...I had k850 and could not get on with it after 3 repairs so sold it but still have 8gb micro card and c702 seems only one at moment at reasonable price on voda prepay,, not wanting c902...I am waiting for xperia to launch but want a se to put me on till then,,,se just wont put walkman and cybershot together and up video record (until xperia)and are a damn pain and losing sales fast...DANI have you had k770 does it have signal and battery probs??I would just get k800i but that will defo not take 8gb card..

                  Sony/e you have done this year on year and its not good at all wen every other firm is putting all multimedia together not continually chucking out fone after fone with same look and spec its just filling your portfollio with nothing but repeats and not giving the customer what they want..Now u bring out xperia and its to much,,how about a all round fone with no smartfone o/s,,sometimes i give up

                        The price for the SE W890i is dropping.

                        Some stores in US is selling for ~$320 USD but expect it to drop further by year's end.

                        It's a good phone though not terrific (if you read the old posts) but it does what it was designed for, a Walkman player built into a cell phone.

                        I'm satisfied with my W890i phone!

                                ***, 04 Aug 2008everytime i turn on 3g, it shows an H sign instead of 3g. i... moreThe 'H' stands for HSDPA

                                W890i has 3.5G which is better then the standard 3G..

                                3.5G = HSDPA

                                so it says 'H' with 3.5G

                                and for 3G it says '3G'

                                get it?

I don't think you are so i will explain it for you. A walkman phone is a phone made by SE for music, that means that this W890 (Guess what the "W" stands for) is made for music.
                                      It is NOT a camera phone! If you want a camera phone why don't you pick a phone made for that purpose?

                                      And actually the camera on this phone is really good. Compared to other music phones its one of the best.

                                        I got the phone yesterday

                                        And guess what
                                        I found a feature in it that I never expected. And I like most. That is "My Location". Which allow you to locate your place on the map within about 1700 m using network towers. Too big I guess but for me it’s so cool. The phone other features are great. And about the "Sense Me" it’s great. Sure it takes some time to get it working but when you do upload all your music files once. You would really enjoy it. I was afraid it would be too light and uncomfortable slim. But it is great. I knew theoretically before I bought it that it feature a display like the N95 but smaller in size. I was amazed by its very high resolution. So you even won't consider or prefer a wider display as long as it has the same resolution.

                                        If I continued to talk I would take away from you the joy of experiencing it. So go ahead and experience it for yourself.
