This is what W810 has, that W800 doesnt:
DPAD(no joystick)
Flash themes
Black color
EDGE

This is what W800 has that.....
Camera Cover
Cool design


If you like the looks of W800, keep it.

Look into the picture of a W810, what it has instead of a joy stick is a DPAD. DPADS last longer than joysticks, especially the ones in W800/K750. DPADS are not prone to dust. However, they cause great discomfort in some games, but only if u play games.
If you can take care of your W800, joystick shouldnt be a problem, and if it is, it can be fixed easily from the service centre.

You're wrong w800 does supports flash themes, you can install them by FAR manager, and by the way w810 cant connect to FAR cause its cid 49.

i would go for a w800i, i agree the w810 looks cool but nothings beats w800, black is a dull color, many would have it,but orange? and besides like jleosza said, w800 is supported by far manager. the higher price doesnt seem like its worth it. just take care of your phone and the joystick would last.

w800 doesn't support flash files. Your talking about animated icons and menu.ml tweaking - different thing.

Actual flash animations are not supported in W800 nor in the menu. SVG animations are, this has caused some confusion.

hi guys check ebay for a joystick cap, i've got a cap with no hole on my joystick and that keeps all the dust away. its urber ownage and makes it look much better and makes it a breeze if your playing games.

picture from seller :


its a shame the w810i can't use far manger, there will be hissing on the mp3 playback.

Mate I couldn't find in your link where you show how to use flash? Do you mean animated gif's for desktop icons? Or true flash (swf files)

there is no flash file in that theme. Let's get the facts straight. Can you actually point to a theme that uses flash, and also a page that explains how? Not a link to se-nse pimp your menu thread but an actually example of a menu that uses a swf file?

Making a theme that looks like flash animation is not the same thing. You cannot get animation in the menus. Correct me (with proper links to information) if I'm wrong.

Do you think the FLASH driver supports flash? If so, please understand the FLASH driver is simply the Sony Ericsson Update Service USB driver. Without it you cannot use FAR with a dcu-60 cable. Nothing to do with flash lite.
