SE just released Sony Media Go 1.1 as their media software.
It's slightly better than the previous media software but it still sucks compared to iTunes!
Can't just drag n drop songs into Media Go and have software create playlists like iTunes which is iTunes greatest and easiest feature!
Also, can't drag n drop playlists into phone's media card like iTunes to the iPod.
Transferring files take a L... O... N... G... time and sometimes slows down the PC (NO KIDDING!)
Avoid SE's W Walkman phones and stick with the Picture phones!!

> In reply to LIOW @ 2009-06-08 08:43 from ibp7 - click to readBattery usage depends on how you use the music player and whether or not any other apps are playing.
Turn OFF 3G, if used.
Turn OFF any other apps in background.
Do Not use features (i.e. FFW or Rev or equalizer)
The phone should last anywhere between 9-18 hours (BST 40 battery gives you a slight more time but the phone's back will bulge a bit since it's slightly thicker than the standard BST-33 battery).

Without doubt the worse and most annoying phone I've ever owned. I'm on to my 4th replacement now - the others keeped powering themselves off, as does the current one I have which is due to be binned as my contract expires. The buttons are way to small, response is slow, you will go through countless handsfree kits as the plug breaks and that also effects the charger plugs too. One plus point is the music player which I'd expect from Sony other then that rubbish. Avoid like the plague

I went with my girlfriend 2 get 1 and by the first evening she had a new love in her life it has *EMACULATE* specs, my w380a & my w580i are mere thought of what once was CUTTING EDGE. I encourage all who hate bulky phones to get 1 right away. Worth every penny.

I( have had so many problems with the phone, it's driving me mad.
The reception is so bad, I keep getting emergency calls only.
After you dial your number and press call, it takes about a minute before you can hear the ring tone.
I have sent it for repairs once already, now it is booked in for asecond repair.
The phone looks great, but not much good if you can't make a call from it!!!

1. Use BST-40 battery which is compatible (check older postings as others have mentioned it much earlier) but does pump up the phone so the back just sticks out somewhat!
2. Turn OFF 3G unless absolutely needed!
3. Turn OFF all other applications that are running in the background!
4. Lower the light level

Anyone tried using SE's media software??
The software is BS and does NOT create playlists and does NOT allow edits to any names!!
It's S*** and should be avoided!
You can always drag n drop the files into the media card but then you MUST create PAINSTAKINGLY the playlists for EACH folder you create!!
What a pain the A**!! That's why SE phones are NOT good anymore!
What good is the media player when 1) the controls are too DAMN SMALL and 2) the media software SUCK?!!
Using the iPod now for ALL music and use the SE phone for just that purpose, a PHONE and NOTHING MORE!!
Never buy another damn SE phone!

SE has MANY problems with their firmware for their phones!
Users should download the New Update software as it works better than the previous version! Unfortunately, the arcane method of holding the "c" key is still present! Guess SE engineers really are "stupid" when they can't produce a decent update software and require users to hold a key down for an update! How quaint!!!

Note:
SE's update service software has finally been upgraded and it works! Previous version suck!
Unfortunately, you must go through the arcane method of holding down the "c" key to update!
