Umm, I HAVE one. Does your educated opinion override that? |

Does your singular experience override all those who returned it? Perhaps you should be talking to CPW and Phones4U.

Haven't spent much time in the Satio thread, have you? There are plenty of people there who have said that they haven't come across any serious problems with the handset. So have people across different forums.
This is not a worldwide recall like the 5800 issue. Stop blowing it out of proportion. If you have a serious lack of excitement in your life, I suggest that you google for "iMac Core i7 problems". Quite a lot have been brewing up on that front today. |

Synn, as ever, I have no idea what point you think you're making. The fact is, both Carphone Warehouse and Phones 4U have had so many returns of the Satio, they've withdrawn it from sale until the problems are fixed. There's no way to spin that into anything other than what it is - a lot of dissatisfied users, and two retail giants who have made a purely commercial decision based on the quality of the product. Is any of that proven "wrong" by the fact that you and some other people on this forum liked the phone? Of course not. Is there even a balance in favour of the phone amongst users here? Very doubtful. Am I or anyone else wrong to draw conclusions from the high level of returns? No, not in the slightest - the facts speak for themselves.

I am not denying that some customers are facing an issue, nor is SE. They have pledged to fix it ASAP and that's that. Every highend handset in the recent times, namely the iPhone 3Gs, the Blackberry Storm, the Palm Pre, the HTC Hero, the HD2 (As of today), the N97, the Motorola Droid... etc. have come across bugs within days of their respective launches. Such is the pressure in the market to rush things out. In fact, the RIM CEO himself went on the record to state that one shouldn't expect high end sets to be bug free from day one. SE is no exception to this.
The way you were posting, you're suggesting that I'm the only Satio owner on the planet with a trouble-free handset. I'm not. Sure, it has its own quirks, but nothing terrible. Nothing that stops it from being productive on a day-to-day basis. I haven't come across a single issue on the retail firmware that forced me to take my SIM out and put it into my backup handset.
Now I don't live in the UK, but I know that CPW and P4U have high standards and withdraw handsets even if returns are within the margin of error for normal retailers. Not the first time CPW has done this. The N86 is one of the recent handsets that underwent this treatment. Unless they explicitly state what exactly the cause of concern is (For I haven't come across any) or state that the handset is permanently withdrawn, I don't see a reason to go up in arms.
>500: Much apologies. Just wanted to set the record straight from the PoV of someone who actually has first hand experience.

If Satio user (  ) is so outspoken regarding their disappointments..does it mean that Nokia user (5th ed) just swallowing it?  |

its more to do with the software, s60, rather than itself. Most, if not all, recent phones that have been released with it, have had many problems. e55, e52, i8910 early on, n97.... well, you get my drift. Lets face it, s60 has got its fair share of problems! I blame the OS mainly! Its shizen! Well the touch version anyway!!!
now back on topic!!!

I work with a guy who has updated his G1 to Android 2.0 and it looked and performed great - made my Satio S60 UI look so dated. Android 2.0 on the X10 is a must, thank god its been confirmed.

As with all things it's a matter of degree. All the phones you've named above have had bugs of course, as has virtually every other phone dumb or smart released over the last ten years, but that doesn't mean they've been withdrawn from sale within weeks of release, or were ever worthy of that kind of treatment. When two big retailers make that kind of decision - because it's actually no longer worth their while to even sell the phone in the first place - then you know that this is more than just the usual teething trouble. Heck, maybe the Satio's bugs aren't actually any worse than some other phones, but the overall experience is so poor people are just more likely to return it than "stick it out" - either way, that puts the Satio on an altogether different, sadder level to most others you could compare it with.
That's it from me on the Satio in this thread - like I already said, the facts speak for themselves anyway.

If so, it would be a very clever move. |

Is it me, or do Sony make these vague PS3 related statements about all their new phones now? Just seems to be a standard part of the marketing plan. I give you "Satio to run playstation games" for example - http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=186689
(Ok, so I mentioned Satio again, sorry)

Heh. That was cleared on the launch blog eons ago. That quote was taken out of context and Rikard clarified that the intended statement was that the Satio can run PS1 quality games (Which it does).
On topic, I'll wait and watch how this unfurls. Remote play is the obvious answer, but it may also be that you could buy movies etc. from the Playstation Network. There was news of Sony uniting all its online stores under one umbrella.
WOuld be nice becase Playnow Arena is still limited to a handful of countries. |
