I can see how an inexperienced person can give the wrong impression of the photo capabilites of the phone, however last year SE had a very good ad campaign for the K750 - they handed it to some photographer dude and posted all his pics on a special site, this phone begs even more for such approach. Also, I thought that BengalBoy does a lot of photography, so are his photos looking so poor? I'm definetly hoping that the quality will be better than shown so far, then again, everyone saying 'wait until final production', rememer that according to earlier posts some 80% of the units have already been manufactured... |

not quite sure about this whole joystick/ dust issue everyone's been talking about. This is my 5th joystick based phone and (knock on wood) I've never had any issues with any of them failing, or letting dust under the cover... |

The joystick on the K800 IS sealed. SE have taken note of the many complaints regarding the Kxxx joysticks and have made it 'impossible' for dust to get in. Not sure if it'll work but only time can tell.

Where did you get that information from ?
@ Tervel - ive always thought Begals's pictures are poor, from when i first starting reading his posts on Howards. However, if you were surrounded by hot women, wouldnt you take poor, shakey handed blurred pictures too ?

That would be good news if true, but i cant be arsed to go trawling through the site to find it.
I'd rather SE seal the LCD too, then there will be no more dust getting between it and the case, but i think im asking too much there.

This is true, i was also told by SE when i emailed them about it, proving that they have sealed the joystick, forever getting rid of dust under the screen problems and perfect joystick responsiveness... etc

I don't know if this has been asked somewhere before or indeed answered, but does anyone know what the release date is for the K800i or the K790i? I don't want a contract, just the handset. Sim free would be nice. Again apologies if this has been covered prior. |

The k790 wont be out in the uk as 3g is more dominant than edge here. But first week of June should be a good time to heck stores. |

I have just recieved a reply from SE, i asked if there would be an advertising campaign such as the k750 had to really show and publicise the full capabilities of the k790/k800...
they said 'no'.
