Come on guys, you don't believe me?
Btw, I didn't buy the phone, I got it from SE (directly), so probably it's a new firmware which isn't public yet. |

space2: You have to afree that a jump from version R4A to R8A is a BIG jump in the software revision. That is like 3-4 years of software revision between them. But I hope you are right, and the new R8A will have ALOT of bugs fixed (and som new features) .. |

it it is real (and i mean if) maybe he has different fw version numbers because he has a qwertz keyboard layout?
i've never known a new phone to have a newer fw than what is on the SE site. |

I do have a QWERTZ keyboard... but I don't think the firmware depends on the keyboard layout (I think the software detects the current layout from hardware and works accordingly... IMHO it would be a really stupid design decision to make different firmwares just because two buttons works differently  )
Btw, so far:
- 1 web crashes
- 1 restarts due to performance reasons
Apart from these two pretty stable.
Some note:
CDC Java (ie. not the standard mobile one, but the more close the J2SE one) requires pretty lot of memory: it eats up ~5-6MB!
J2ME (ie. standard mobile java) with a simple app needs ~2-3MB.

i didn't mean that the firmware would be different just because of the buttons. but your phone will have a different language pack and therefor the firmware will be different. Although after looking it seems like these small differences are denoted by the digits at the end of the version number. So if yours says R8 at the start then this is not the reason. |

Especially because you can change the layout within the software. So basically there is no physical hardware change on say the keyboard PCB. All it is is different buttons, then the software is programmed to use qwertz instead of qwerty. Simple.

I can change it?
Where????
I could find it! I was able to change it on the P910, but cannot find the setting in the M600... and the swapped Z and Y are a bit annoying... |

@701
No, it works fine:
I sent an image from a W900 to the m600 and viewed it. While the picture viewer was still on, i sent another picture, and there was no problem. |

I havent tested yet a movie as big as 40MB, but a ~10mb movie took about 15 seconds to start. However after some adjustments on the movie file it loads in ~3 seconds. |
