Clearly, the Aino is being hung out to dry by Sony Ericsson. They don't seem to know how to market it, or who to market it to. And confusion reigns because it is too much of a hybrid perhaps. Too expensive to be a simple Java phone, and not versatile enough to compete with high end phones. And it seems to be losing out to the LGs and Samsungs out there - its direct rivals. And that must hurt Sony Ericsson because the Aino measures up well to its target competition.
I think Sony Ericsson will just have to remember this as a brave move that didn't pay off.

WOW ... 50m is really alot!
all my bluetooth headsets give up after 15-20m (I was thinking it was alot cos they write in the brochures 10m)
my bluetooth watch is also good for 15m no more.

I'n new to Sony Ericsson mobiles. Can someone tell me what to do so my Mac (OSX) can 'see' it when it is connected via USB? Am I going to be unable to transfer any files to my phone at all?
Posted by hihihans
Hej, Mac and SE are not really great friends. You can use Media-sync. But it is extreme slow. Bluetooth works great. Wifi I don't know. (I'm new to wifi) what I do is use a cardreader, and just drag and drop. Good luck with your pretty pair.

Hi, there is a whole thread devoted to this.

Hope this helps.

I have never faced any problem with Wifi connectivity, works like a charm
Posted by Caracoleo
Thanks. Looks like I'm going to have to get a bluetooth adapter for isync on my Mac? Never had this problem with Nokia!
What's weird is that my Mac doesn't even register any device when I plug my Aino into it via a USB.
I wasn't expecting full synchronisation, but to not even register!?!

From mobilearena.com review:
For a cell phone with a large screen and enjoyable multimedia capabilities, the Sony Ericsson Aino offers surprisingly good battery life. A full day of continuous audio listening and abusing both the Wi-Fi and the boxed Bluetooth hands-free constantly couldn’t use up even half the battery charge. According to the manufacturer, the handset should provide up to 4.5 hours of continuous talk or remain operational for over 300 hours over 3G networks.
I listen music max. 2 hours in a day with bluetooth headphone, 200- 300 sms, 1 hour video, 30 minutes WIFI... & it uses battery 70-80%
From review:
we need to congratulate Sony Ericsson on the quality of the snapshots taken with the Aino. Images are sharp, both colors and details are among the best we´ve seen an 8-megapixel cameraphone deliver and the handset is much better than the Sony Ericsson C905 and W995, at least when it comes to outdoor pictures. The flash performs relatively well indoors, although the increased image noise leads to worse overall quality.
Nice to know that

Had a strange issue this morning. Touch-media was gone. When I stroke the basescreen (closed) it went to desktop instead of media. Solved it with a restart.
