IMHO for the price. this phone is definately value for money. around RM900 for an AP set. and it got most things except for GPS.
but it is touchscreen. and it runs UIQ. IDK about the K850. so cannot compare. sorry.

below is a comparison of the two phones using sony ericsson website. you can DL that and check it out. there are some errors though for some reason.
like it says no web browser. but it does have one. and also it says no music player. but then media player does play music. unless it means like no dedicated walkman software. also says no phone book. hahahahaha.  but yeah. hope that helps.

i've read about the k850 thread, and seems it has alot of problem. On the other hand, G900 looks great with almost all features are there....
need to checkout lowyat for this phone one of these days. gaga.

pros and cons that i noticed

- f480 doesnt have wifi while g900i does
- f480 has 230mb internal memory while g900i only 160mb but this is insignificant because most people use memory card today
- im assuming f480's camera is better because it has the face detection feature
- f480 doesnt have keypad while g900i does

for me, ill choose g900i anytime over that f480 because i need wifi lol  rolleyes.gif
*
heard that the wifi is slow for g900i ler....
btw, use g900 can msn and facebook or not ah!?

slow? that depends on your connection strength la. if the area's connection is good then its fast

of course g900i can open any website including msn and facebook. or u are talking about msn messenger and facebook messenger?

the msn messenger or yahoo messenger can be used with some 3rd party apps like fring and ebuddy but the facebook messenger im not sure. i didnt test it
*
can use ebuddy would be great enuf dy...
thanks for the info...

yeah, got a g900 ystdy, still getting to be familiar with the phone.
but so far quite cool, can do alot things some phone cannot do, but also sometimes quite slow to load.

the camera is not bad too, the touch focus nice to play with, and when u're bored of it, can set it back to auto focus. pic quality is ok too me.

the link for everything u need

http://www.persian-forums.com/

the first thing to do, find how to install unsigned software first. there's a lot of method in that forum. the easiest way is to use the installserver activator. after u pass that only u will be amazed of how many apps u can install. the best one i used is the iphonelock la. i used my own photo too last time. lol tongue.gif

i didnt have the chance to install garmin on g900i last time. anyone tried?

my garmin on my phone is super cooool! i even use the car holder to hold it in my car  laugh.gif
*
i've read the forum and follow the instruction, but still got stuck.

1st, install capswitch and able to do so.
2nd, install x-plore, and failed, saying dunno what 'a required capability...blabla...'

then cannot proceed anymore.

can anyone help????
