Can anyone confirm what comes in the box with the C902? Just I'm wondering if the Sony Ericsson Desk Stand CDS-75 is meant to come with it or is this an accessory in all cases?

Oops. Forgot to mention the pc suite and the basic wired headset with 3.5mm adaptor. No memory card or desk stand is included which is a shame really.Anyone thinking of using a T650 stand (CDS-71) will be disappointed as the C902's fastpost is jus a few millimeters too high.

When I saw the C902 and the G900, I thought the G900 would be the better phone. It has the innovative touch-focus feature and the benefit of the UIQ interface that (while not brilliant) gives you the scope to expand a lot more.
The home screen with the panels is also a very nice feature, and even though the C902 is faster than earlier models, the G900 is still quicker and better for managing multimedia.
THAT SAID, now the final C902 has arrived and I can see how solid it feels and how slick the revamped UI is (plus the new tweaks and improvements), I think it's a tough call to decide between them.
Of course, I've not got the G900 yet to do a proper side-by-side comparison. However, I've fallen in love with it and even if the G900 is capable of doing more, there's very little you can't do on the C902.

Look at the various K850 threads and it was amazing just how bad this phone was from day one, and many months after. It wasn't until the more recent firmware updates that it got sorted, but it's still anything but perfect.
The C902 hasn't given me any problems yet - not even a reboot (my W890i liked to restart quite a bit). It really has amazed me how stable it is - and so unlike Sony Ericsson of late.
Let's hope this carries through to future products, like those unveiled on Tuesday.

Oh dear.Used mine for one day and its kept in a case when not in use. Opened the slide for the camera today and there's loads of dust on the screen side. Didn't notice any on the camera side though.

Only thing i'm waiting for is for expert shield to make a screen protector or invisable shield to do something. On the dust side. I've got a small soft hobby paintbrush that should do the trick and check the phone every 2 days to clean it out.

Just been messing with the service tests and tried the LED Illumination. Looks like the camera flash has 2 colours. One the usual while light and also an orange one. Wonder what function the orange led has as it cant be seen when the camera cover is closed. Make sure the camera cover is open when you do the LED Illumination test and you will see it after the blue strip lights up. |

I'm thinking that orange LED is probably just a retina scanner to unlock the phone.. or perhaps simply an X-ray LED.

Yes, I think it is one of these - and also a way of telling you when the battery is low!
God only knows why they bother to 'hide' a red/orange LED on all their phones (well most of them) and not use it for anything useful - perhaps as an option of showing when you're in coverage, or when you've got a missed call/message.
It would be especially useful on the handset that use displays that can't be kept on in standby (for power saving reasons) so you would know the phone was still actually on and working. It's a feature that has been present on Ericsson handsets for years, and then gradually disappeared from the non-smartphone models and later the smartphone models.
