Well done Top sony!
I think all these modding and stuff is sending a message to SE to improve on their service. Its good we've got places like Esato, SE-NSE, TopSony etc. where we share ideas in trying to make our phones better.
SE wake up!
Lastly, much respect to 'Darkmen' a name recognised by all Far users and many SE lovers! God bless u 'Darkmen'

The firmware updating process just got better and simpler!

I hope we are not too FAR from the day when we have CID 49 support (No pun intended!)

Nice job Top Sony.
