The swedish company gsmteknik now offer the K750->W800 conversion for 199SEK... about $30...

They claim full W800 functionality... "only difference is cover design"...

They also offer the reverse transform... W800->K750...

Davinci will no doubt have this option in a few days, no need to pay ridiculous prices.

Because the platform sends bogus messages while charging, that is why!!!..But why this change of heart?..We sense a charger connected, oops, we will not shut down after all!!!..*********************** UI BASIC, HOLD YOUR HORSES

Somebody mentioned in another thread here that they were able to change the fascia of their K750i from silver to black. Does this mean then that we could totally convert K750i to W800i, ie. update firmware and fascia? (assuming someone makes a W800i-style fascia for the K750i)

Do they have the same dimensions? If so then noone would be able to tell that your "W800i" was iniatially a K750i...

Or you could trade in your faulty K750i on a W800...
