Singtel also have liao on their website.


Flexi Lite: $368
Flexu Value: $218

Plus some free gifts like LiveDock (What's that?) and Logitech wireless keyboard (huh? Can connect to phone?).

Also get a chance to win round ticket from Tiger Airways.

Yup, the livedock connects to the phone's microusb port and on the livedock there is a full sized usb port for connecting usb devices. You can even connect a keyboard and mouse combo wireless desktop.

Just got mine, too, from the IT show at $368. I switched over to SingTel from StarHub. Yes, SH Q is never-ending and I don't like their package. I even gave up the $100 recontract voucher! Hopefully, it was a good decision. No turning back now. I got myself a white one!

Goodbye and out!

Im switching from laghub too. The data speed is mostly slow, no freebies at IT show & up top 199 for ps vita. Its only good for those who want ps vita. White XS, here I come!

There's no MSC Mode, but it's no deal breaker, just one extra click to reading the phone as a memory card overall

Internal storage

nice pics!

the signs reception of this phone is excellent. on mrt, got 2 stretches where I pass through, other phones cut off signal when passing through, this phone signal didn't get cut off.

as for mtp, the advantages I find so far is faster file transfer and ability to use the phone content even when the computer is accessing the files. downside is the phone will stutter when file transfers are carried out, and mtp won't work on os which doesn't support mtp.

bros with mtp, i can see that the folders are more or less all present in zeth's post... so copying mp3s and jpgs is no problem in win7... but does the internal file system allow all file extensions and can we copy large files >4-8Gb in size over? thanks!

Early bird premiums?

OMGGGGG soooo pretty! The jap keyboard is in hiragana or..? Did u have to download that keyboard or was it preloaded?

だろう?

It's just sooooo matching with the white set. And because of this, I abandoned my Momotaros' ringtone of 4 years to Sieg's (well, Sieg is a white colored Imajin and his summoning tone fits the theme too)

The QWERTY keyboard you'll just have to type out its Romanji pronunciation and there will be lists of choices of words in hiragana, katakana and kanji characters for you.

Alternatively, you can change the keyboard to the numberpad version, which is a standard for normal Japanese cellphones. Added in Nozomi is the ability to write the words on the screen.

The keyboard, of course, is preloaded! This is exactly why I support SONY eversince I found out this function on Rachael. With a Japanese keyboard, you can download and install japanese emoticon (dubbed as kaomoji) templates and libraries like this --> (^3^)/ rather than the usual smileys we use.

There are a couple of skins available in the phone itself for you to personalize (like I am using the Sakura skin for my Japanese keyboard).

There are a few variety of skins to select from the market too, but it doesn't support our country. I am guessing it is only exclusively for Japanese users.

Oh by the way, last night when I was using the Android Market for the first time, it disappeared after that, icon and all, and evolved into this thing called Google Play Store

Google Play is a new platform where Google finally combines all Android apps, music, books etc into one portal. Just released yesterday. Nothing much changed yet so SG still only have access to apps. Can google to check out.
