I've read sumwhere about the the joint easily broken issue, it is something to worry about...But mine I feel it's quite sturdy.
BTW, the cam although it's not the best cam (no autofocus, not lanscape camera mode, limited options), but I only use my camera for some candid shot and they all turn out to be quite good, and the fun part? Geo-tagging~
And the track ID, it's uber cool, it really identifies any song from any source, I've tried TV, in the car, mp3 player with speaker, radio...anything.

Added on June 7, 2009, 9:16 pmOrite, some reminders, switch your network to GSM only to conserve your battery life, with 3G on I can only survive 2 days with 10 hours of music, 5 pics, 10-20 sms, 3 mms, 100% brightness.

After switching to GSM network, I manage to get double of that. Don't worry you can switch it back anytime when you need 3G (video call, faster internet surfing etc etc).

Laggy yes, but I don't "multitask" with W980 so, no problem for me...
Currently filled up to almost 6GB of rubbish (musics, photos, podcasts, videos) still, performance just like before... Just that start up takes abit longer.

I used its media manager and pc suite, since they are there for u to use, why not right?
BTW, WMP can do the job just fine too.

Err. I do, I have only 1823MB free.
255 photos
867 musics
8 videos
8 games
Well the performance? There's not a lag that I can't tolerate that is. Anything else you want to know? Daily operation is smooth...

Skyer : Yeah I've got the violin red one =P
Akupunye : I've sent mine to the shop that I bought, still under warranty so they did it for free, it's still ok now ****frantically touching wood**
Da Drummer : I think u're being conned, just my guess, coz the shopkeeper didnt say he changed any hardware, he just reformat that's all, although I could have done it myself but I didnt have the time.
