I found that Satio doesnot have any RDS. Strange these days RDS is basic in any latest phone. For Satio to not have RDS, makes me annoyed. Even my old K800 which was the first Cyber-shot phone, has the RDS. With a faster processor and better antena I would have expected that this advanced phone would have RDS.
Also, it seems there is no graphic equiliser in the phone. Again something basic these days in all mobiles.
Would anyone know, if this is possible to get by installing any softwares ?? |

Sometimes I feel like moving from UIQ to Symbian mayhave given some advantages, but end of the daytake away many useful features which was really handy and added value.
SE you need to look back and see what we have lost |

Lack of RDS AND Equaliser is SE's fault. Plenty of S60 NOKIAs have both. Hell the 1st S60v3 phones and even older S60v2 N70-ME ,N72, and N90 had Equalisers in their Music players if i remember correctly,have no idea why SE left such basic features out of a flagship.

Particularly seeing as they've had working prototypes out for 6 months, and from what I've seen, they did pretty much nothing at all to the software in that 6 month period. |

SE seem to try to release devices that specialise in certain things, if the satio had all the features then sales of other devices like music orientated phone or camera would slump and everyone would buy a satio, I totally disagree with this type of marketing/product design, if you want a device that "does all" then it should be dictated by price, in my opinion the satio should be fillling this roll considering how much it costs to buy off network, it was launched as a flagship device and should not be lacking in anything, what are we supposed to do - carry 2 phones or a seperate mp3 player, I bought the satio to be my music player my phone and my camera, a simple software update would enable it to fill all that i want of it.........come on SE make this my pefect pocket companion. |

i think the satio doesnt have an equalizer because it has mono speakers and simply because the speaker just doesnt and will not support an equalizer |

So what? K800 has got mono speaker, C905 has got mono speaker. Both have got EQ.

Install Lonely Cat Games - LCG Jukebox media player. It comes with equalizer and internet radio as well. Great app. |

my undesrdtanding is that 3 party software with EQ will not work without the SE API or driver to enable the feature, are you sure the EQ is working, SE need to add this with next update or they will loose loyal customers including me. |

It's a shame that high class phone does not have such thing like EQ. Is there any problem with it?
N5800XM have got EQ and it's the same OS. SE can't handle this or what?

SE have already said that they have no plans to add an EQ feature to the Satio.
There may be another bug fix update and possible amendment to the current dictionary. SE have being looking at the possibility to add manual editing of stored words and address the annoying way in which the Satio changes a word if you add punctuation. Of course SE being SE nothing is confirmed and all the above could change. Although the dictionary issue has been looked at it may or may not be released to customers.
I like the Satio but i think it's a fish out of water. How many useful apps are being released that officially support the Satio ? Yet the nokia's and samsungs running the same OS are still getting new and updated apps ? DO they know something we dont ? |
