Problems like the keypad & d-pad not working, earpiece no sound when got call, etc.

Now thinking should get this phone or not sad.gif

I read the vodafone UK forum and some of them have the same problems there for their C905. So not all originals is good.

One good thing their is the 1 on 1 exchange.

Hopefully they fixed the C905 problems before they launch here.

Lolz... I was thinking getting one as well. But, the 3g video call using the back camera sounds alil troublesome.
Btw, just wanna know is the phone outlook condition is rubber-like like k800i isit?

Golla is a brand. They make pouch for mobile stuffs. Some of the original pouch that came with the Nokia phones are Golla. There a stand in Pavillion and Midvalley.

Or you can get the full body protection of Invisible Shield. Very good product as it is scratch proof. Using it on my PSP now.

I went to SonyEricsson in Taman Segar Cheras and they are selling C905 from Midland for RM1950 after discount from RM1999. Colors available only black and silver. Don't have the copper color.

Wanted to buy with credit card but they charge 5% interest for installment. I remember SonyEricsson Pavillion is 0% interest for installment. Will go tomorrow to Pavillion or BB Plaza to look for cousin who sells handphones tongue.gif tongue.gif tongue.gif

Here is the weird thing. Last time when I played around the AP set, it looks and feels plasticky for the black color set. But the Midland set looks and feels more solid and smooth for the black color set.

Anyway I have bought Martin Field screen protector from Daijoubu in garage sales. Been using this screen protector for my W900i for almost 3 years before changing to the 2nd set. The Martin Field comes with 3 screen protector. 1 for the screen, 1 for the camera lens and 1 for the flash. Really worth it for RM35. Better than those selling around which only give you the screen protector for the screen.

QUOTE(IcedNyior @ Jan 10 2009, 12:06 PM)
is the invisible shield thick?
*
Nope. It's a film that you stick on to the whole phone. You get scratch protection without using those bulky crystal case.

I've tried using a key to scratch it and it doesn't get scratched

More info here:

Got someone selling in garage sales and bulk order.

Anyone try B4 ???

16GB M2? Can find in Malaysia? Not available here yet as it was only release by Sandisk. So I don't think anyone got chance to try it out yet. But doesn't the C905 got limit of 8GB?

Selling for US$129.99 about RM450+ if can get here.

Heard only black and silver c905 available. The gold and pink not sure or not release.

If you like Windows mobile then by all means go and get it. But do know that Windows mobile got limitation on the screen colors and you are not using M2 but microsdhc for the X1. I was tempted also but the thought of smsing with touchscreen and the microsdhc (cause I got the 8gb M2 for the SE phone) and also the RM3k price tag put me off the X1. The camera is ok only.
