Software sucks so badly. Its full of bugs, nice phone but crap UI which ruins the whole experience.
WHy is it that you keep
trashing every new SE phone?
And why is it you always
trash it with claiming false, complete BS stories about them?
Is it possible you have some interests in trashing them?

dont think it that bad,just takes some getting used to after A200 etc.
Just ignore badassman, he's obviously only interested in spreading his BS negative propaganda. I have my Satio here for over a week now and
I never had to force reboot it, never had anything crashed on me (except RoadSync's internal crash when trying to use it with Google Calendar), no bugs, no slowdowns, nothing so far.
Yes, I miss a
true email client and a load of other things but it's
not buggy at all, badassman is lying through his teeth again (he's doing the same thing in the X10 topic and that's why I suspect he has some vested interests in spreading FUD about SE's current and next high-end phone.)

sorry to burst your bubble guys but badassmam is correct. I am by no means a negative person and am usually non-biased in my claims, hell I favor Sony as I carry many of their products but the Satio (in my eyes) has a failure UI and is indeed full of bugs. Don't get me wrong I love my phone but it's really hard to keep the passion alive when its always freezing on me. The Satio is way too unstable and lags a whole lot! Sorry to say but in terms of efficiency, the iphone and htc hd2 are better phones.
It really is too bad that it had to have the Symbian name attached to it. The aftermarket, apps, games, themes, etc...is way too weak for their so call "claims" to be the ultimate in media. I'll be getting the X10 for sure when it comes out, hopefully that one will be better.
I'm not suprised companies are pulling the Satio out of inventory, it gives too many problems.
I love the phone but..damn...flagship quality but not flagship stability.

full of bugs .... ? Hhmmm had mine for a couple of weeks now and so far it's
had one issue (trying to run a theme from the card) which needed a battery
out reboot.
Yes the UI is too much of a mix up of Symbian and SE to be any good and
battery life is fairly abismal but on the whole it's a world apart from the K850i
in terms of stability. (Yes I had one when it was first released !!)
I wonder if most of these issues are from branded firmwares ... mines straight
from SE direct so there's no branding or customization at all.
Now if the whole UI can be made to match the Media bit .... wooo hoooo

I had a 5800 for 3 months and beleive me it was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay worst than Satio in the first FWs.
Satio will get much better with FW
Satio will have its place in SE Theme Creator in the next version (official SE Developper sources)
Just be a little patient

surely it would be better to test the device properly before wheeling it out only to get a load of bad press because of crapness. SE always seem to skimp on memory, the P series always seemed to chug along at its own pace, and how often did you get the not enough memory message when opening office documents? the cost of memory is not that much these days and it would make more sense to chuck in more, than just enough. the fact the phone actually has the not enough memmory message in its programming suggests they knew it would be weak in that department if you wanted to open bigger documents. it is no use having all the bells and whistles if the power isn't there to ring them.
i do agree though that the branding that virgin and O2 and orange etc put on does add to the problems of devices. i have a mate who works for the local telecoms and he hacked the registry in his xda to remove the branding which improved it's stabillity significantly. many things come from the htc stable and if they left left operating system alone they would be better for it.

Sure there are some issues and annoyances but what phone hasn't had them? Heck, after the terrible experiences with launch firmwares of the Nokia 5800, N97 and Samsung Omnia HD, I think the Satio has been the best of the bunch amongst S60v5 devices.
Let's hope this is a temporary issue and gets resolved ASAP.

Why do these manufacturers not have beta test in the public domain the way software developers do, it would certaintly improve the release of devices like this, ok it might cost a little but the benefits must surely outweigh the cost. Al they need to do is look on these forums and there are plenty of people they could recruit to beta test.
