Yes I said previously that when I had a w995 mine was made in 09/wk37 which I believed to be a bad batch. Others had theirs made in say 09/wk36 & they were fine
So thats why I think its when certain Satio's are made in certain weeks of production

Here in sweden they still sell satio. no problems like those in England is reported. Som minor bugs in the software but not any big ones like they who have been recalled.

Is it just me or is it British networks that have problems with phones?

Some people love to flame a mobile phone for fun!
Since when nokia,motorola,HTC and others are doing perfect phones without FWs updates??
It took 3 FWs for the 5800 to be stable for example!
It took more than 1 year for Apple to reveal the hidden bluetooth of the ipod touch 2G thanks to the 3rd version of the OS...
Does the Satio has HARDWARE bugs???? NO!
So have a life and give SE a couple of days to release the first FW update,the Satio has only 1 month old after all.
with respect IF this was the first time
have had problems I would agree BUT as I pointed out I have been complaining about
SW for a very long time they simply cannot write decent code, I thought they had learned their lesson and I was keen on the X10 but having seen the list of
additions to the device I am less enthusiastic I am totaly fed up with being disappointed by

I think the Satio is just a deserving victim of higer expectations from modern smartphones. Some of the "hardcore" users here are well versed in all the usual niggles and snags that have come with every new smartphone (particularly Symbian or Windows Mobile smartphones) for years, and aren't too fazed by the Satio's bugs, or even overlook them. But the thing is, smartphones aren't just the preserve of those people anymore, they've gone mainstream. Satio is competing with phones running much newer, slicker OSs and coming off badly in the comparison. People used to dumb phone reliability or the likes of an iPhone or Android device just aren't going to put up with all those old Symbian quirks, so for them it's just a case of putting it back in the box and chucking it back at the shop.
The good old days of geeks like us having "patience" with buggy new smartphones and perservering to "get the best" out of a flawed new device are over - the bar has been set too high already.

Great post Boinng IMHO you have summed the situation up perfectly.
I think Sony Ericsson have a lot of thinking to do if they want the X10 to be a device the networks are going to take, The P990 did a lot of damage to their reputation to the extent many did not take the P1.
I may well sound like a
basher and to some extent I am, and for good reason
have consistently taken my and others hard earned cash and delivered sub standard product, which they then as good as disown when we seek solutions! they do not listen to their finest advocates and generally behave with stunning arrogance no wonder they lost so much money.
I sometimes wish we could wind back time to the innovative days of the P800, it will be a long time before I ever buy an
device at launch time!

I have read T3 many times & they rated some
phones as top like w995
Hi I am sure they have, but my point is magazines like T3 have played a huge part in the hyping of Apple as they need to be seen as "Trend Setters"

I seem to be posting this same reply in multiple threads each day because people seem to want to ignore the fact not all Satio phone are bad.
Mine has behaved like a phone with mature firmware since day one, except for the odd minor oversights on SE's part when it comes to customisation of S60 (standby themes etc).
I am utterly convinced now that the phones recalled and taken off sale in the UK retailers shops are of a bad batch. It wouldnt be the first time SE have recalled phones made in certain weeks. I got my Satio towards the end of October. I know it was from a fresh delivery to CPW where i bought it because they were selling so fast CPW couldnt keep up with demand. People like all these posting negative comments IMO have faulty handsets or bad customisation in their countries markets. Theres no other reason why some have all these problems, and some have none like me.

boinng is spot on. the satio is a crackin device. it just needs a little time and patience..firmware updates will help..no doubt. alot of of the known bugs are present on the omnia hd. at least you guys are guarenteed updates. i have to use italian updates as the hd standard firmware releases are non existant..

Hmmm... I have unbranded Satio and didn't noticed any hardware problems. The point is that I miss some functions like equalizer and RDS better battery lifetime.
All of it is FW problems so... I'm waiting for new one with repaired bugs.
