i dont mean the a2 platform if you ask me.

Hey, I'm not disagreeing with you. Yeah mine is scratched and chipped, but I don't really care as long as it does what I want it to do, take nice quality pictures make phone calls etc. And plus if the K850i did not chip easily I would of never got mine for 75 pound last year. So yeah I don't really mind it's still durable and I think it gives it character. Makes it stand out as yours and you can think oh yeah I remember when I made that dent when I was on holiday etc.

But I do disagree with you on that fact that you think it's rubbish; it's not.

That the touch buttons on my K850i are glow in the dark thanx to who ever mentioned that,i realised it last night lol, and that my K850 looks so good with the Sony Sketch font.



Your welcome it looks pretty cool, huh? I guess you never noticed because you normally had the screen on so they did not show and you hardly ever look at your phone in pitch darkness do you - well that's my reason anyway...it is a little pointless but is pretty awesome...

btw how do you get sony sketch on the phone? I always wondered cheers

Lol,same reason, i saw your post then put my K850 in front of my desk lamp for a seconds then turned off the lights in the room and saw the three touch buttons glow bright green.
To get Sony Sketch i got it in one of the links in A2uploader topic, then just put it in the fonts folder of my K850 using A2uploader.

V640i - How great this phone is at Video Calling, you can display pictures and pre-recorded video to the other party during the call and the 0.3 Mp front facing camera delivers video quality on par with the 1.3Mp rotating camera in my V800.

I have learned from my i-mobile 902 that it is possible to have a pretty good camera in a phone but that most manufacturers for some reason, probably that the cost of the camera module shrinks profit margins, are not interested in this any longer and instead equip all new camera phones with mediocre cameras and trick customers into buying their crap with marketing speak like 'outstanding picture quality', 'print your photos with fantastic resolution, up to A3 size' and so on.

I have also learned that no one is interested in making a truly converged device. Whatever you buy it will always be lacking in some area: the music player in Nokia's E90 is lacking resume support so it's useless for listening to long podcasts or audiobooks.

When migrating from a Nokia 1100 to a SE Z520: That SE would be my brand of choice for a long time (UI Wise), also that a handset could perform way more tasks than making calls

When exchanging my Z520 for a W710: That dedicated music controls and expandable memory made a huge difference in a handset, that USB implementation was far better than in the Z502, also that you can snap decent daylight shots with a fixed focus camera...

C702: That A200 improves over A100 in many aspects, such as: SMS/MMS Management, general menu implementation (via the dedicated call/end keys and the two softkeys), that Cybershot UI is way easier to use than traditional potrait interface, that 2.2 inches made a considerable difference compared to 1.9 from my W710, that the led light should be standard in every phone, that Walkman 3 (and the media center in general) is much better than Walkman 1 and finally, that i wont buy a fixed focus camera phone ever, AF rules...

Thanks for that tip StevenC , I knew you could take a picture when you go Options/Save Picture but that short cut is nice...

@ GUCCI.011

I can't see to do that half way down for slow mo I tried pressing down hw but nothing happens EDIT: I played around and figured out that pressing the down button (when phone is horizontal) puts it in slow mo, is this the same slow mo that you were talking about? I remember on my friends W900i you could go through frame by frame...? Anyway thanks for the help
