QUOTE(scorps @ Jan 1 2008, 11:06 PM) what?? why so limited??  I have version 10c of the Viewty firmware, and I can store up to 5 numbers for each Contact in any combination, plus separate fields for email, home address, office address and web address. For e.g. I have one contact with 3 handphone numbers, 1 office number and 1 fax number, and I was able to assign that no problem. Probably some of you have more than 500 separate individual contacts, but I don't although I do have contacts with more than one handphone number, so this phone's limitations works for me.

QUOTE(carpathia @ Jan 2 2008, 12:21 PM) i already know how you drop into the toilet bowl....you must be hovering above the seat....hehehehe so anyways, are you gonna repair it ? not covered under warranty ka? No lah.. i was not hovering above the seat.. i tried to close the toilet seat and the phone just slipped from my shirt pocket..luckly it slipped after i flushed..if not  .. Water damaged is not covered under warranty..so, i have to pay to repair the phone..

I also experienced this before, phone the whole afternoon nobody pick up the phone, then at last I continously redail few times then they pick up lol...

Bought this few days ago.. $2099 with a free canon printer.  Not really impress me, did I need to tweak something? Any guide to make it better?

What isn't impressing you? The phone? Camera? PIM functions? MP3 playback? Everything? Need your specific complaint maybe we can compile a list and send it in to LG as ideas for a new firmware. Although I do also hear that LG are not very responsive when it comes to after sales support, but too late for us owners now I guess, and we have to sink or swim with them, at least until we sell off our phones.

Actually I can't really see much of a difference between this one and the B-Version I had previously. Talking specifically about picture noise issues in indoor and low light situations.

The phone speed, writing box, and touchscreen interaction seem very weak.

The burr-ing vibrate on the onscreen keypad and qwerty of the Viewty really rock for me. I guess juine not used to touchscreen phones? Because as I remember it, MPC touchscreen keypads are worse.

yo guys. my retarded friend finally paid up after a long heated argument. (he's d 1 that threw me into d pool... ) gave him the phone n he paid me $2099. (the phone is working now after taking 1 day rest. initially screen comes out jumbled words, then cud not unlock) so my viewty only lasted a week w me but i have sort of fall in love w its beauty even though initially i did grumbled a bit. damn sexy la this viewty  (a bit heart sick now  ) looool. now $$$$$ burning in my pocket..... shud i get back a viewty or perhaps n82 ? comments comments  as for the printer, pics printed out is great. via phone, u can't see the pic on printer screen. but via camera w memory card, u can see d pics.

great news bro... hahahaha... now u fren has to sent to zitron and repair for at least we know, rm820... heheheh. but he should know better the consequences for doing that. but whether u shud get back viewty or n82 its ur personal preference. both are selling at the same price. you can go to phoneshop and have a try on both. once u know what you really like, go for it.  and p/s: i sell viewty w/o printer at RM1888 oni le...
