I know youtube has a mobile friendly site, and I'm pretty sure it doesn't use flash for it's videos coz you can use it with phones that aren't flash enabled. I don't know the address but you could search for it. Also, I'm pretty sure you need to have 3G signal (not sure if EDGE would work, don't know much about EDGE) because it's video streaming. Hope that helps...

        I had installed the core player 2mths ago as it was mentioned in the forum. However, i still cannot watch youtube? Whenever i click play. the video file keep buffering. further more, there's msg saying that the adobe flash payer is turn off or not installed. i wonder u guys have this problem when u purchase the phone or not.

        other than this, i'll again say W960 is worth the buy. Awaiting your reply!!!

            this is an awesome phone!!! i have nothing but nice comments for this phone! i think this is even better than the iPhone 3G. or better than any phone at its class... SE's reliability is unparalleled.

              nick, 18 Jul 2008i think people who want an easy to use phone would be happi... moreActually, I find Nokias and SE's just as easy to use as each other, at least in terms of feature phones. I gotta admit I do find the W960's menu more pleasant to navigate than the N95's but that's not really a fair comparison because I really do like the touch UI. And I've been working in the mobile phone industry for nearly 4 years now (admittedly it's the network side of things mostly, but we need to have a decent knowledge of the handsets as well), so it's not just that I don't know about mobiles.

              I know 5 (6 if you include myself) former Nokia users who have since converted to SE, and wouldn't look back. I can only think of one former SE user who now prefers Nokias. You can't really argue with that, it's simple numbers. Says it all really...

                i think people who know that little bit more about mobiles and their potential go on to pick a nokia.

                nobody can deny nokias just do more.

                    Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970(nEwW) was my IP at 1 time i think

                    me being me, i cant make my mind up lol

                    and my K850i died and got BROD-ed(Blue Ring Of Death)

                    so then i started flaming SE in the Nokia forums..i didnt really flame it that much

                    i just kept saying my K850i has died over and over again ..

                    But i Love SE Really though

                      Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970Very true but still whats strange is the fact that its the nokia users who seem to be coming here and brag about their phones. Kinda seems to justify the fact that nokia phones are made for weirdos

                          Nokia Fans must not be happy with 'Nokia's'

                            Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970It's interesting, coz you don't see many SE fans posting in the nokia forums about how much the nokia N-whatever sucks, but there's plenty of nokia fans here slating SE's. Kinda suggests that SE fans are happier with their phones, while nokia users feel the need to justify their choice by trying to convince others why their choice is supposedly better. After all, I used to be a nokia user, switched to SE and so far I've really got no regrets. There must be a reason for that.

                                the w960 beats the n95 or n95 8GB in absolutely nothing.

                                and dont say music because walkman music quality is so mediocre. you just all fell for a badge.

So where ur livin they must either be ripping you off or the W960i is in such demand that they are forced to sell it at a higher price :)

                                        and the conclusion is

                                        SE Rule for me

                                        you sameer concentrate more on 'value for money' Nokia has it
                                        but Nokias are BORING compared to SE Phones

                                        Having a W960i is a Dream

                                        Having a N95 8GB is Boring...what do you do on it honestly? install apps lol play N-Gage ....The Menu is soo boring on N95 8GB! its soo boring its depressing..


                                        W960i is Touchscreen and much easier to use and the Music Player is 10000 times better on W960i and better Size and everything..

                                        N95 8GB is 'Jack of Trades, Master of None' so its not a master of Music!

                                        W960i just is a better then N95 8GB..

                                        Nokia cant make music phones..XpressMusic phones are nothing compared to Walkmans
                                        Cyber-Shots have better cameras then all Nokias put toghether

                                        You dont even own a SE sameer, so dont judge them...
