Since my last post, the handset's touchscreen has locked up two or three times a day.
I found that uninstaling the SPB Mobil Shell seems to have cured the problem as well as prolonged the battery life a lot !!
Toshiba have obviously not really tested things enough, so one of the main hyped things about this device has to be uninstalled for it to work properly.
A shame, but not too big a deal for me.

I bought G810 in mid january, and for about three days the battery wont charge. It worked like a charm before. No matter how long it will charge (AC) it stays at 1% capacity. If I pull out the AC plug, it shuts off imediatly. I tried hard reset, but no luck. I think either the battery or the charging circuits are faulty. I'll just have to wait for the service repairs...

First off, just a correction of the specifications.
*There is a speakerphone.
This handset can take HCSD of at least 8GB.

I've had this phone for about a day now and performance wise it's fast ! opening apps takes 1-2 seconds.
It has SPB shell.
There is no chopiness when playing MP4 movies.
One of the most stylish designed Windows Mobile handsets I've seen.
Has 3G,HSDPA,HSUPA,EDGE,WIFI.
Battery is pretty good.

Expansys.com has them for £199.

Do the battery works good? I can see that the stand-by is only 200h but the battery are 1530mAh. On other WinMo phones with the same battery the stanby-time is over 300h.
And another question. Can I change the language to swedish if I buy the phone from Expansys swedish site?

> In reply to Saeed @ 2009-01-09 16:51 from pTe9 - click to readyeah the control keys are touch sensitive.... you can assign the controls on the upper controls and at the center. one thing that I dont like the battery life and the accessories... its very hard to find.

The camera in front yes... you can take pictures... you can even put some backgrounds and even edit in your phone.... of course any windows mobile there are lots of add ons and softwares like google maps... even divx player, youtube player, even windows live.

But if you have money and you want speed... I'll go for smart phones with cpus 500 to 650 MHz of speed like Blackberry bold, Samsung Omnia, or the toshiba G900 with bio-metrics scanner.... HTC phones also is very popular....

But of course i choose the toshiba because it has a navigation map free of cost... I ask the price of the software it cost around 900 AED. and in HTC it is not free... its a trial version only for 30 days or for3 motnhs but Im not sure on their new version of HTC... Also the style and its unique because you can hardly find any person using toshiba phones.... heheheh

I bought this phone last december 28 and it is fine its fast the pre-installed co-pilot navigation software is nice helps a lot when driving. I used 8gb micro SDHC expansion card and it works fine.
Although the tech support told me that it supports only upto 4gb. I downloaded movies like naruto, and lots of music and still system performance is still fine.

Only thing is that battery will last for a day only because Im a heavy user of wifi and gps. also the accessories is not available here UAE. like cover, extra battery.....

The same to HP, Toshiba also manufactures poor technology devices. I think if the screen can be enlarged to 3.5inch, 480x800 resolution, Touch Flo support, 5MP or over camera.
