just thought id let every one know
have been using the w900i radio every day for over a week now
reception is very good, exactly same as k750i
changing station is easy
always lisen to radio just switch it on and remembers last station
not having it built in makes no difference at all
this was a worry for me as listen to radio every day
so for anyone who is unsure
can reccomend the w900i radio

I also use the radio every day on my k750. indeed the phone seems to have been relegated to being just that, my radio.

Anyway, I find that when I turn it on, yes, it is still tuned to the last station I was on but the volume is quite a bit higher than the settnig I last had it on. I think this one has been mentioned before though.

the other thing is that going on the train and bus it is very susceptible to the surroundings such that I find myself touching the headset cable in an attempt to add myself as an aerial extension. This often works but sometimes, on the train, I find I have to put the phone up higher in my jacket pocket to get a good signal.

I know are fairly new at radios but I would hope they have improved in newer models. Think I might actually have to buy a real radio been looking for a good DAB for a while though

so, how is the radio reception in the W900?

They really need to up the radio volume to same as the Walkman's highest level,my w800 + k700 radio volume are pretty low which is rather sad.
