Happy April Fools day. will take the good news on this post with a pinch of salt. I haven't got the P800 (still waiting for O2 to release it) yet but how easy is it to update to the latest version of uiq. Would I be right in assuming that I could send it to a SE repair centre (just like I sent my T39 twice to repair software bugs) to get it reflashed. Is it as easy as that or would there be a hardware.

Whatever the next UIQ Version is - I sure hope it is upgradable at the local Service Point. I think it should be - being a purely software related issue and all. Anyone who can shed light on this?

that means that there is larger ms duo in the line up!

hope this is true!

Even if gadgetboytom is April fooling us, he has a spot on wish list

This is definitely an april fool joke! How do i know? Well the comment about larger memory stick support gave it away because there will never be an MS Duo bigger than 128mb!

Actually, Sony does plan to make 256MB MS Duos.

Posted by fadywwf316
Actually, besides the 256, they are planning (including MagicGate Duos) to have 1GB Memory Stick Duos by the end of 2004. Check the Sony Memory RoadMap, they have both magic gate and duo size and dates of release.

Posted by Rashkae
Yup. It's just the P800 only supports 128MB duos.

>Actually, Sony does plan to make 256MB MS Duos.

Actually Sony DID plan to make 256mb and above duos but they can't! Even the normal size memory sticks can't get to 256mb without the use of a switch, effectively making it two 128mb duos stuck onto a normal size memory stick. That's why they have made another new format called memory stick pro which are the size as the normal memory sticks but incompatible with most existing hardware. There are currently 256, 512 and 1gb MS pros and they might even go as high as 32gb. The roadmap everyone keeps refering to showing that ms duo will go up to 1gb is now outdated and has been removed from the memory stick site.
So once and for all here are the new maximum memory stick capacities:

Memory Stick - 128mb
Memory Stick Select - 256mb (2*128mb)
Memory Stick Duo - 128mb
Memory Stick Pro - 32gb

@SunilC

Just as I understand it. Spot on

But read the switchable ones might go higher (4 switch positions for 512MB).

April Fool it might be but there is meant to be an upgrade to UIQ 2.1 available sortly. It will include Java MIDP 2.0 support, which will take it the only phone in the wolrd to have this, along with many other goodies.

I just wish they would release it!!!


Posted by SunilC
Psikey I think I heard something about the 512mb memory stick select but nothing concrete!

Cheers

Sunil
