I have red in the MR review of W705 that it's GPS photo enabled!
Could the W705 has a hidden GPS module? So flashing a W705 with the W715 FW could bring it on?

Is the 5800 that bad? I mean I've tried it and I kinda liked it.

I have the G705 flashed to W705 since I don't need the GPS function. My battery seems to last for around 2 days with around 30 texts sent each day. Whether I use the Walkman or FM radio seems to have little effect on my battery life. Keep in mind that my battery is already a bit screwy and the screen brightness is at a low 50%.

The G705/W705/W715 firmware are all interchangeable. If I want, I can easily turn mine into a W715.

The only regret I have is the camera's lack of autofocus. Other than that, I still love this phone very much.

The only thing i hate in 5800 is the java support. I mean the navigation of it... It sucks because of the lack of real keyboard...

P.S. and it's nokia.... hahaha

G705 is quite cool phone, ive tried several times. the slider is actually pretty solid, (not super solid, but there is not many super solid sliders out there)

what ever you do, dont buy G700, its just hideous. its such a different between G700 and G705. cant even understand why the named G705 in same series as G700, it make no sense.

I got my G705 a few days ago and until now no real problem with it. The location and navigation in menus has a bit changed but it's still a Sony Ericsson. It doesn't have EMS which I find very strange. The phone is fast and stable (no restarts until now). Videos plays very well, sometimes a short lag in audio but it catches up quickly. GPS can work standalone. Sound through speaker is better than W910. The only thing I'm disappointed with is the screen, white appears yellowish and colours are not reproduced properly (compared with my W910 screen).

Ok, I could not wait any longer. Last night I've updated my phone to R1EA033 from R1DE034. The phone is very responsive now despite that it was quite fast on previous firmware.

Here are improvements noticed.
- Menu animation are SMOOTH, navigation is faster.
- Slider Open Counter added in service menu.
- Better GPS reception. A did a test inside the house, I noticed it is able to connect to more than 5 Satts.
- I'm not sure about this one. It didn't seem that it was there in DE034, but in new firmware the Calculator has a Unit Converter.

That's all for now. Hope not.
