LOL Gucci, my only concern is that by the time the Satio finally hits the shelves, the 5800's successor could well be out by then...

SE need some kind of miracle to get them back to the main arena.Good luck to them making a comeback and showing everyone whos their daddy lol Im waiting a couple of years for an Apple iPHONE that has all the bells and whistles and functionality of the major players.Its an amazing phone,it just needs a few more years to mature and my E90 has maturity,sometimes I think to much.

Hmm, seems Nokia's new app-store is somewhat 'ovi'-rated (LOL) at this early stage:

I cant log into the ovi store... even after resetting my password. What a disappointment

@rhino is the ovi app available for u to download in 'Downloads' on ur 5800.its not availble for me and i hope the e90 is on the initial compatibility list of phones.i think also having the Appulous experience on a jailbroken iPHONE,I dont think you can come close to that anytime soon.Also i saw a list showing which countries get what in the respective stores and we Im afraid are only be getting the FREE stuff whereas places like Australia and Europe ect Will have content which will have the billing or credit card options available to them.But yes Im going to give it try anyway.

Lol Wanqa, too true, and it will probably have similar specs (except the 12mp cam) at a lower price. when you realy look at it the Satio doesnt bring anything new, but its good to see SE trying to keep up with the multimedia smartphone fad lol. One question though: HONESTLY how hard is it for SE to fit a 3.5mm jack? The SE fastport is terrible to use and having to use the bundled 3.5mm jack adapter is a pain in the arse, especialy with headphones like the Sennheisers where they are already long and an adapter just adds to the amount of wires and gets very annoying to use.

Ye i wonder hey, i realy hope its not as limited as the Lg Ks360 touchscreen which only works for dialing a number. . . .
I take back the P800 comment after thinking about it these handsets arent that exciting.

If i go to store.ovi.com on my 5800, the page that opens tells me that i dont have the app and asks if i want to download the app. After downloading the app, the page opens normally, but it keeps opening the app if i try to browse the online site.

Kind of irritating anyway

Well it's not that bad, apparently it's only ltd to the Media player and camera apps... Still dunb idea though.
Yeah, the phones aren't that exciting, but at least they bring something different. Still like the w995 though

Rhino I went to store.ovi.com on my phone and managed fine.The only downside is all that is available is 3 pages of free junk.Im going to wait a while for them to stock up before I bother taking another look.
