looking to buy a new phone,been going been going in and out of the shop looking at the satio,like a lot of things about it but but cant make my mind up,it does seem a little slow especially when you compere with the smoothness of the i-phone and this is with nothing on the phone.so my questions are will this get better with software updates and will it get even slower when i start putting pics,vids on etc.

Well, wait a second I guess its better for people like you to have a BB than a SE because SE phones are for people who knows about the mobile world. Not !! this time for real, enough said :)

2- ... moreHi!
I am a SE fan, and I tell you, if you don't like the phone, choose the X3 when will hit the markets(February), you paid a lot of money to get it right? Actually I can't believe 100% your words, the Satio was developed by SE Japan, I saw many videos and it is good, much better than any previous SE smartphone.

Hi there,
I want to change from my crapy samsung Preston/S5600 and I am considering the Satio because, to me, SE makes logical and easy to use UIs. But I am not 100% cinvinced by the Satio and I wonder how the HTC HD2 compare...Of course I do not expect the camera to be at the same level but I do not need a 12mp cam!
Thank you for your advices!

ive been playing with the Satio for the last 8hrs, and i absolutely hate it,
1- its ugly
2- its hard to navigate
3- the menu system isnt all that great
4- the touch screen tends to be unresponsive
5- the webpage views are awkward to use and rarely click what you want it to
6- did i mention its ugliness?
ok maybe ill upset a few people with this remark, some people are die hard SE fans, and they make great standard phones (k750, k800 etc etc)
but i think they need some help in the smart phone market,
im waiting for my BlackBerry Storm 2 to arrive, but the Satio is mine to trial for another 10days
doubt my opinions will change !

Phone is pretty good have had it for about a day or so now, although don't like the risistive touch i find you need to use more pressure to register your action camera is awesome much better then my Omina HD. I am still deciding weather to keep it or return it kind like the omina's captive touch. Can't comment on battery life just yet. The music quaility is much better on the Satio then the Omina HD but i think it's due to the quaility of the headphones really.

A little bit slow for me... some quirky things I don't like. But I've worked out ways to do things quicker.
- Wifi
Is ok. Have had no major problems.
- GPS
Works fine in the car or walking...
- Satio & PS3 remote play. = probably not
Haven't found the feature to enable remote play. When it's active on the wireless list, you can't connect it via the wifi key.
I suspect Satio can't do it .. lack of feature buttons etc.
- Applications.
My gripe is that not enough apps ready for it. Google maps is update 3.0.1 or something and if you try to upgrade latest from google .. 3.2.1 it says .. update error !
- 3.5 mm
Only problem is that you have to remember to take the mic block around with you. Apart from this .. you can plug what ever 3.5mm headphones(no mic) into the mic block.
- Reboots.
My Satio has rebooted a FEW times, on its own, I've seen it do it.
- Hang.
I've had it hung once. Contacts transferring via Bluetooth
- Camera.
Is good. 9mp default picture size.
You can do three shot wide screen auto stitch photos, it gives then three squares to you take the first shot..and move to the next square where it'll take the next photo and then the next. After which it stitches them to make 1 picture.
