Has anyone been able to lay their hands on this baby yet??? I've been eyeing this phone for months now!

I'm curious on how well the phone actually is, like faults annoying features/good features, cause I'm seriously thinking about buying this phone, its just been released (well I JUST found out about it).

i wanted to get the white and orange version but aparrently the sales people were like it doesnt come in that color *liars!*

got mine today, its not too bad the first thing that i did notice however was the material of the casing thingy, if your not carefull enough it could easily break like the S500i/S500 or scratch, i havent gotten use to the buttons yet cause they're differenct compared to the nokia 6230i *previous phone* im scared of pressing the buttons too hard or too fast wen txting incase they break =.=

picture quality is decent 2.0mp, can onli zoom in vga format, music player is reali good *nice and crisp*, it has the holey thing in the bottom corner for phone charms, urrmmm theres color changing lights lol, gamewise there the sims 2 *havent palyed yet* and a tetrez sorta game aswell and radio

mmmmm annoying features... none soo far the onli thing that i did have difficulty with was removing the battery case at the back, took me a while to do case theres no grip thing at the back, urmm sometimes the fone doest go on *lock*..

intresting features... it has a pedometer! not that i will use it but u never know lol, its has the same features as alot of sony ericcson phones. all in all its not too bad, u just have to be careful on how you handle it, its a very cute size and comfortable to hold, now if i can find a case for it then it would be oh sooo great =D

hope that helps ^-^

Hows the shake feature? It must be weird to jog with the phone unless you can turn that feature off and on.

mmmm i like that colour for the W580 biggrin.gif
i've the S500, so theyre almost exactly the same, minus the pedometer, shake feature, and the walkman 2.0.
i like the themes for this phone too! i downloaded them and put em on my phone and they work! cept for the menu icons :T
but yeah, ive read about the keys for the W580 and supposedly they crack just like the S500.. id be careful =[ haha

I just got it last night. I opted for the S500(better design, imo) but since this one had fm radio and is available from my provider, I got the w580 instead. I'm a bit disappointed by the shaking fuction. I didn't know you had to press the walkman button while shaking inorder for it to work. >.> That's even more work than pressing the damn next button.
About the cracked keys - SE is giving BS. The yellow S500s crack as well.

For the people who bought this phone do you have a cingular...or should I say AandT server? Because I am thinking of getting this phone at sonystyle and Im not sure if it supports my server, because I have a T-Mobile SIM CARD. Did you guys get it unlocked or something?

Im wondering if you can just pop in any type of SIM CARD to this or ANY phone that is sony ericcson. I was really pissed when my Nokia 5300 broke and wondering if I could just use this.

In sonystyle it has this thing where you can pay 10.OO a month, is that true?

mine came unlocked so i was able to put any SIM card into it (tmoblie wooo lol), but to put ANY sim card into ANY Sony Ericssons, in my expericence thats not the case.

you should ask first if its unlock
