this is way too long then i expect for this phone to be out in the market.there is so little news or update on this phone in the net.really cant stand it...hahhaha

cool..cant wait to get that for my b'day in october..hehehe...hopefully da price will not be that high...

for this phone they can go up to 8 gb as well and theoretically can go up to 32 gb..but how big storage u would expect a phone to be?..a phone will still be a phone.there is too many limitations to it...which i suppose if we were expecting more..its best if we should get a pda or a laptop instead.hehehe..no offence

9 megapixel mobile camera module launched
http://mobileratty.com/ article/ e6fd4c40d4cbb8679e78eee3d2c79157

If you were drooling over the 8 megapixel camera that the LG KC910, the Samsung INNOV8, or the Sony Ericsson C905 have to offer, it may be time to reassess your gadget-lust. Digital Imaging Systems launched their 9 megapixel camera module today, the DIS6931, which promises to capture photos up to 3488 x 2616 pixels in size and VGA video at 30 FPS. With power consumption under 175mW, an autofocus taking less than 300ms, a click-to-capture time of sub-200ms, and the highest pixel count to date, this module should be very appealing to manufacturers out there, so you can expect some announcements for the next notch in cameraphones real soon.

im pretty sure by the time it reaches here it will be near christmas.....lets hope the price will not be that high.....

i like the silver one...look abit more classy

im currently using pda phones which have gps...for normal phones , im really not sure how well gps works on them..so i really wonder how well this will be...as for a normal gps phones they may have soft ware like garmin or mapking to support..wat i understand that they will use google map which will need constant gprs connection to get the update or watsoever...i have also heard on the wayfinder.which i really not sure how it works...maybe is there anyone to enlighten me on this?

im also quite intereseted to know if this phones can really good for heavy surfers like us..hehehhe..i wonder if we can see youtube stuff from it...hahhhaha.and also will wonder if we can chat via msn thru this phones..hahahha

i knew it...but its just that in all the statements in those reviews stating there is secondary camera ..just not sure if its true that it doesnt have any secondary camera for video calling ...or isit possible that different region's model may differ.?hehehe

plus another big drawback when get to know tat the fon doesnt have any secondary camera for video call.....

i prefer silver.....hehehhe...

i suppose....once the phone is fully launched here...there will be a big difference in the price....as it will be too expensive to get it now...due to very limited stock with high demand...hahahhaha...so b patient if you think that the price is still too high for u...
