I tried searching couldnt find anything.

My K550 is flashed to W610 firmware, and I'm not really impressed...it seems like its worse than a stock K550....

Whare are the differerences between the two, i can think of:

-WALKMAN compared to regular MP3 Player
-Absence of a camera cover sensor...(annoying)
-Flash themes (is this not avalible on the K550??)


Please tell me more!

**ON A SIDE NOTE, anyway for the K790 firmware to work on a K550??

Well... you can go back to the k550 f/w if you dont like the w610. And no, the k550 doesnt have flash lite.

Does the W610i have autofocus camera ? if so then the K550i should have had the flash lite feature

Flash Lite:

Flash Lite is the Flash technology specifically developed for mobile phones and consumer electronics devices. Flash Lite dramatically accelerates the delivery of rich content and browsing, and customized user interfaces. Designers and developers now have a new level of expressiveness, efficiency and interactivity for content creation.

SOURCE

flash lite = flash theme

Flash Light: we already know what it is. but if you dont know, here is a definition: flashlight

The SE website says that the K550i has SVG tiny and no flash lite while the W610i has flash lite and no SVG tiny...

What's up with that? What will it mean for a user?
