Another poor battery performance.... low RAM capacity.... Hopefully the new Symbian 9.3 will not affect the battery and RAM performance...

If Samsung want to really kill XPERIA and Nokia N96, they better release it earlier than the others...

what's the standard package consist of? Does it include 2nd FREE battery? Most of Samsung mid & high end phones have 2 batteries included in the standard package.

Please also check whether USB charging is working or not.

Nope, only 1 battery and the USB is working perfectly, i mean charging. In fact, there are no other way you can charge the phone beside USB.

Ummm... i meant does the unit charges while connected to laptop/PC via USB? This function is vital when we use the unit as 3G/HSDPA connection.

Anyways, there are lots of youtube stuff on i8510. Very good UI but abit "messy". Regarding the GPS function, there should be some tweaks to make it work to all Symbian OS phones. COM port settings is essential to make the GPS working well. Have you tried to set the COM port to COM8 or COM1....?

so there's no bundled trial GPS client? I'm pretty sure iGO8 will run smoothly with this unit coz it has auto-detect COM port capability.

I believe Fring is a free software, mate. smile.gif

Yes, Fring is free but the data/GPRS/3G is not. Unless, you use fring with WiFi/hotspots then it is purely free.

I like fring becoz it's fringging free and it supports Skype! All the other all-in-one IMs do not support Skype except fring. Hopefully, fring will always be free...Do you know that fring is made of Israel...?

Unfortunately, fring for Windows Mobile does not support file transfer unlike fring for Symbian... now that is one factor why I still prefer Symbian over WM...

No, it doesn't. The instant you touch the unlock button, the sms ring tone stop.

Glad to hear that... but the ringtone from quiet to loud is bad...what if you set it to loud only...will it also ring the same?
