The sim should go in fine, it is a little difficult getting it in place but with fingernails you should be able to push it in, it took me a minute or two but I finally got it. About the cracked keypads, mine has cracked and I'm having trouble getting it serviced, they gave me the shpeal about, "our warranty doesn't cover this wear and tear blah blah" but then again I'm in Thailand and the language barrier makes it more difficult. Any official word about it from SE yet? I called the US service center a second ago, they quoted $185 for a replacement of the pad which is pretty rediculous, almost the full price of the phone but I don't think the customer rep really knew exactly what he was talking about, can someone call and confirm a price? What's interesting is that after I said I just got my new S500i and that the keypad cracked after 6 days usage and that many people online are reporting the same thing he said that it would be under warranty, but then again after I said I was abroad he shook me off. Could someone confirm?

For the people who have tried the everchanging and day and night themes on their S500's without it originally or on different phones, does it fully work?
it will work on different phones but like a plain themes regular icons and plain background.
this phone have amazing sound quality . for all S500i owners here a small trick :
just send any defult flash themes from walkman phones (like: female line, grouped, orange bubbles from W850i . or citybeat, gsharp, musaic from W880i ) to your S500i then set it on your S500i after that play the music from media player then minimize the media player . bingoo now the phone will show the artist & albums & tracks names like walkman phones on standby mode .
Does anyone have the original W830/850 or W880 themes to try out on my s500.
Please anyone?

Sony Ericsson keypad problem solved
Remember the S500 keypad cracking problem I posted about a while back? Well, this problem has been officially recognized by Sony Ericsson. Their official explanation (from SE Germany) is that there is a chemical reaction between the green paint and the keypad material (plastic). This causes the keys to be easily broken. This is why the yellow version of the phone is not affected (no green paint). The issue is being resolved by SE. Also, apparently the affected S500's are made before week 27.
