yup... i agree with your review... the omega wheel is a joy to use, including the haptic keypad.

video recording is still a measly 176x144 though, a higher resolution video capture size would have been better, but then again i bought this phone for music playback so it's a minor gripe for me.

mine came with only 1 theme. seems there are no download sites yet for e8 themes?

saladboolad234
tongue.gif wuzzup!!!!!!!!
well it looks like motorola is really gonna rise once again with thiz one.....hehe
i'm definitely gonna buy one.......
got sum questions though... hmm.gif
-what do i get by payin rm1199?? phone+mmc or no mmc? s9 perhaps??? haha
-is the front surface scratch resistant??
-lets say while listening to music, if i want 2 check da file manager, can i change the song without going back to main screen??( i mean press next song while still in file man. ) cuz i can do that using my e2 (dedicated keys on the side)
-is the cover on the back really loose??? (cuz i heard that it can be easily removed even when u dont want to open it)
-no hang problems??
-if i buy thiz phone at the end of july, how much do u think the price will drop??

Sorry if im asking a lot of questions tongue.gif ....hehe its just that i really want to buy it cuz i think its the perfect music phone for me...cuz i never need all those 3G of Wifi or 5 mpx camera hahaha

PS-keep up da good work, PRINZE! ur da man! rclxms.gif

ya.. i saw the pouch.. its pretty nice, slot in pouch with rokr labeling..

well, i guess if u wait for further and price around RM999, i think its only includes phone and charger by that time.. just my opinion..

so far only me and enjay using this phone.. where's the rest??

the keypad is touch sensitive, and u really need to press it cos it is not like touch screen.. dummy is differ of cause..

u went to action mobile? i guess they already seal it and without demo unit.. u open to test = u buy it..
saladboolad234
yeah....4 motorola phonez i always trust action mobile..(haha promote2)
i went to action mobile @ the mines.....
they also sell @ rm 1299 -standard package- ....dunno about the pouch
owh.....so thatz how things work....have 2 wait 4 demo unit....sigh....
cannot tahan.....hahahaha want 2 buy but hav 2 work 4 it 1st.....
hehehhe still student maa....
uhmmm prinze, in sum review, they said that u really need to press really hard on the keypad....and after using it for SMS a few minutes they said that their fingers hurt.....???!!!!! is it true???
i really dont believe thiz bcoz i know motorola wont do that and
u also said that the keypad is really nice n now u r addicted to SMS....

"they said that their fingers hurt.." first of all, who are they?? lol.. different ppl have different perception..

but as for keypad, it's not THAT hard.. it is some sort of vibration when u pressed it because actually there is no keypad, it is just a piece of glass.. and after i used for about 2 months since march, i just love to sms.. maybe u can go to KLCC, normally they have demo unit installed at the display cabinet...
saladboolad234
owh...thats good too know...
i knew it....damn motohaters.....keep postin false review....
too bad i cant remember the web page of the review.....
woah...KLCC...i'll try.....hehehe
also...i notice in the first page, you listed 'Microsoft™ music ecosystem support' as one of da features...... what's that???
Cosef
