> In reply to Bill @ 2008-10-11 14:23 from nU1GJust read '5ushi' comments about 'Playback failed' being a known bug.

Interesting I've only so far only observed this behaviour with m4a files.

Does anyone have issues playing back m4a (128kbps AAC) audio files whereby the W200i reaches the end of a m4a file, and then might refuse to play any other m4a file ?

> In reply to Marsel @ 2008-10-10 13:36 from t5$hn70 through power mp3 player+ hpm-70 gives the perfect music infact as comparable to the Megabass... but but megabass is more like a gamble according to me bcoz megabass of w550 is above all music solution so far i have tried. i have the expensive w960, stylish w610 and this little baby w200 where the megabass is not that powerfull. so i think if u get the defective handset then your megabass suffers. thats what has happened with me with w960 and w610 where the megabass is useless whereas megabass of w200 is 50% of w550. am damn sure about my w960 n w610 they really have some problem. so guys if u wanna gamble then u can try your luck otherwise n70 with powermp3 software is great.

Hi there walkman phone Loyalists!! There's no question about the great features of this budget music phone! I have this one. It has all the up-side In it..from music player to camera functions((though, only VGA.)). The only downside I've obviously noticed & really dislike 'bout w200i is that, SE-Walkman designers did not put some "cool-design" around/in the circle form of the VGA-camera at the back?? It's so so sad & lonely...I mean, designing a great budget music phone is suppose to be excitement!! It's suppose to be a happy phone?!It's suppose to be fun!((considering the beautiful cut-design of w200i)) That's why I gave the unit to my Girlfriend. In fairness, This is a great budget music phone.

hey guys got this phone yesterday. quite satisfied with the performance for the money which i paid but not as great as w550. i have w550, w610 , w 960 and now this little baby. i found w550 to be the best followed by w960 and then w610 & w200. infact 610 & 200 both are same through hpm 70 earpiece. i heard a lot about w610 megabass but finally when i bought it by myself i found it to be worse. may be my w610 is defective(software upgraded twice), bass and megabass both are almost same unlike w550 where one can make out the difference clearly. W200 is about 50 % of the w550 megabass according to my opinion. now the best part of w200. its grey in colour and i got mps-70 speaker free(in india-kolkata rs-4169 about 95 us$) along with it and its working great with w200i. cheers !!! guys note down nokia music solutions are no where around walkmans believe me except n70 with power mp3 player through hpm-70.Yeah one more thing i wanna add about hpm-64 its very good for those guys who doesn't like in-ear type headphone. yeah hpm-64 handles bass frequencies quite nicely i mean you can really feel the thump. and i tried using creative ep630 headphone with w200i and believe me guys its comparable with ipods...

> In reply to Mark @ 2008-10-09 17:01 from t5$hThere is no radio recorder on the W200i.

RDS = Radio Data System

A description can be found on Wikipedia.org.

If you have not come across RDS, then you are perhaps in a country where RDS is not operated from your FM radio stations.

I bought this great phone last week and am satisfied with it. But, its skipping parts of MP3 tracks at 5-6 places irrespective of whether it is placed in the Internal Memory or on the memory card...What do I do?
