I have discussed software upgrading issue with a SonyEricsson engineer that I know. The reason SE doesn't allow you to do software upgrades yourself is because of the risk of people tampering with the software.

If someone hacks the firmware for a phone this could lead to huge security issues on the mobile phone networks. A hacked mobile phone software has the pontential to bring the networks down.

BTW I do not agree that the Siemens software is better than the SonyEricsson software. Ok I haven't used a S55 so I can't comment on that one, but I had a Siemens ME45 and I didn't like that software, the menu structure was not consistent. Sometimes the "yes" alternative was on the left option button and sometimes on the right, which made me press the wrong option sometimes. Also the wap-browser seemed to use a whole differnent kind of user interface which was not consistent with the rest of the menu system.

Other than that it was an ok phone. But SonyEricsson software is far more flexible. The menu system is easier to navigate, and it has lots of handy features which makes it sooo much easier to use. Just look at stuff like dynamic menus which PCControl for example uses that is just one feature that makes SonyEricsson stand out of the crowd.

The No/Yes thing still lingers in the S55, I understand this when it comes to deleting things, then it has sense, but at other times you end up cancelling out of the menu.

The wap browser does seem to be separate to the phone, also, the wap browser is very slow when a connection is active, the phone beeps like mad when typing as you run out its key buffer, disconnect and go to 'go to address' and its all fast again
