I don't eat the fact that if we'd had AF in video mode we'd had less ram; I guess it's API, and it takes ram as still pictures does.
Quoting from SE site about K750 about camera http://www.sonyericsson.com/s[....]emplate=pip3&zone=pp&pid=10242

Camera

Auto focus
Camera 2-megapixel
Photo light
Video record

About P990 http://www.sonyericsson.com/s[....]emplate=pip3&zone=pp&pid=10336

Camera

Auto focus
Camera 2-megapixel
Digital zoom 2.5x
Photo light
Video record

About W800 http://www.sonyericsson.com/s[....]emplate=pip3&zone=pp&pid=10245

Camera

Auto focus
Camera 2-megapixel
Digital zoom 4x
Photo light
Video record

So do you see any differences? Except digital zoom.
As far as I remember, K750 and W800 could shoot movies using flash, I know w800 can do it for sure.
Does P990 have this option?
I remember they (k750 & w800) had a square in the middle for helping me taking pictures and movies, and showing me on which zone it will focus.
Does P990 have this option?
I remember K750 & w800 had AF in video mode.
Does P990 have this option?
Why I've bought p990 instead of M600? FOR CAMERA!!! I didn't bought it for that 802.11 b crap, because I had a better device, Fujitsu Siemens N560 (VGA screen, 624 Intel cpu, GPS, 802.11 G, Windows mobile, Real Office not that crappie Quickoffice, and so on).
So I took P990 for camera, and my experiences with K750 & w800 were good, so I expect to see the damn square in the middle, I expect that damn AF, and I want that small command that start the flash in movie mode. They should give that and some more for free, after so many decisions (I will give updates, tomorrow will be the last, next week we'll give you another update, so many bugs, etc.).
Man I paid the money for a device, more than I'd paid for a notebook, and they're playing with our minds.
For all these faults, I expect to receive flash player for opera, I don't care who has to sign SE, Adobe or Opera, I want something more, only for this s***y strategy.
I will say no more!

RDS is in whitepaper and it's not working- that's what I mean. The autofocus issue is just typical SE insensitivity and total disregard of their customers, having the right doesn't necessarily mean what you're doing is right.

Who else says that RDS is not working?
Or is it @Mode which is not working?

My RDS is working just fine

If you mean AF, yes it works.

Just to clarify the rds thing:

It does not work as expected (no scrolling), but it works as it has been 'developed' by the junkies, sorry, developers at SE.

That's why it still sucks and why they haven't changed it in any fw.

Check the manual.. [addsig]

Ok people, SE' s still listening and says there's gonna be another fw update as soon as 2 weeks from now, you can refer to this

http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=152371&start=240

So you can keep your spirits high with the knowledge that there's still hope to actually get what you want, so start spilling your bug concerns. SE, you're starting to get on the better side of me, so how about giving us the video mode autofocus trick back. And please, get RDS alternative frequency (AF) working as you have so boldly stated in your 'help' option in the Radio app, and I quote:
"The radio can also re-tune to the alternative frequency that gives the best reception for the channel you have set (AF)."

I would make my peace if these two issues were solved

@mode

this might have been the response of another dumb support center employee who has simply copied & pasted the text fm an earlier response, not aware that it has been released already.

The info refers to the release of R6E28.

I rang them once mid May (had R5 on my P990 since a month already) in order to check if they have any info on the release of the next fw.

The girl put me on hold for almost two minutes and came back with the answer 'No, unfo there is no news yet on the release of the next fw.'

I asked her what the latest available fw is and she replied: R4

Your skepticism understood. Nevertheless, there is a chance for it to be genuine, I don't think we have anything to lose by posting the annoying bugs we have to deal with here, so fire away!
