I think I visit here most for the forum because it's fast and well laid out. Esato.com front page isn't very well laid out IMO.

A blog to complement the news section might be a good idea and it would be great for the site as a whole, However, I'm in agreement with those that said that it should may be put more emphasis on the Photo's and Reviews and build on it's strengths.

Is there no link to it from the main page? We need a regular blogger to take over I think. It's not as if there isn't enough to write about.

A redesign for the front page is a good idea. Make it look not so charged could be more eye-catchy.

If ever this site would be redesigned once more, I'd suggest that the designers to keep it light and fast. In fact whenever my 3g/4g Connection got screwed and my connection temporarily reverts to EDGE/GPRS mode, Esato will be the only site that loads the entire page, others SNS sites such as Facebook/twitter will show an error and not load at all.

@Jagger2k,

Good point. We could do that too.


@tranced,

Yes and a new logo. Also I think the forums should be made easier to notice newer threads. Also, some more measures against spammers. Last I checked, there was some one here selling fake passports

Laffen is in charge regarding the logo. He's the admin.

And about the spammers...we do our best. Sometimes we have to eat

No I meant like for signing up, I am not sure how it is presently, but i think it should have more steps, like captcha code etc. to avoid spammers/bots for signing up.

I mean you guys do a great job keeping them away from the site, but for a relaunch, and considering if this goes much bigger than it is, then there should be more steps to prevent them.

New members can post only 3 times. This keeps spam controlable. You can also pm Laffen or Tranced if you spot a spam.

The forum needs badly a facelift . Same for the site.. I'm mean that the site could look modern and maintain its simplicity. It could look far more elegant. Better spaces between elements (padding), highlights, etc..

Esato & Ericsson are 2 special things for me. Because of them I felt in love with mobile internet (wap).

Thank you laffen!

I needed to order some new business cards with updated details for Mobile World Congress next month when I realized that the old logo with the joystick inside the "O" was kind of outdated. Is it easy to see where the idea for the new "O" comes from?

I guess I do. But I'll wait others to have their thoughts in.

Also the banner has a WP phone.

I really like the new logo and the minor touches done to the forum, I noticed the new logo as I was switching from Google Chrome browser to Safari on my iPad, so I in Chrome I had the old logo and in Safari I had the new one

The new O seems to come from the task switcher button on the Android on-screen keys.
