Exactly. It would massacre the iPhone. It’s stupid of them not to launch it here.

Does anyone know if it will come out in the US? Up until a few days ago, the phone was on the US Sony Ericsson site, and then it randomly disappeared.

@fizz
It should be out on T-Mobile now.

@elaine
Why not check with the local operators? I have no idea about the Philippines.

Because its platform doesn’t support HSDPA. If it had supported this, this would be included in the w960’s feature set.

Video plays great on W960 and a list of codecs are supported. It gets even better when playing with the third party application, CorePlayer.

Tell me bout the video on W960i, is it just like Iphone video or like ipod?

OK, if you compare the display to, say, a P1, you’ll notice that the W960 has an added see-through plastic layer above the TFT display that protects the screen.

Sure, go to the menu, tools, control panel, connections, mobile network (or whatever it’s called, it’s the third on the list), more and then “GSM-/3G-network”

I just got mine today, love it to bits, mine didnt come with a plastic screen cover either, must just be a standard thing. I cant work out how to turn off 3G on it tho, any ideas??

Yes, you can, but an external Bluetooth GPS is needed and so is the GPS software (like Wayfinder or TomTom).
