my w800 joystick is giving me problems as well. instead of going down it selects instead. its frustrating at times, but i still love this phone so i'm putting up with it til the w810 or the k750 successor is released. would love to get the w810, but if the k750 successor user interface is anything like the pics of it, then i'm getting that.

Joysticks stuff up after time, its that simple. My T68m started crapping out after 2yrs, and my K700 is showing similar signs. I never play games, frustriating with T9. I still love the great usability of a joystick over a joypad, i just wish they are more robust. This message was posted from a K700i

Just like I posted in the W810 thread, I think that the joystick is not reliable enough. Many people are put off from buying any SE phone because of it.
And its not just because people complain too much.
If other manufacturers are having widespread problems with joysticks then we are obviously not hearing about it. Yes they are easier to work with and play with, but if this compromises the brand's image then I don't think that this will help SE's plan for world domination

I love SE phones but if they really want to continue using joysticks then they need to find more robust and durable designs.

Because of the joystick problems many people are having over SE phones, I've been extra careful with how I use my W800 joystick. Now, it's still working perfectly for 4 1/2 months that I have my phone.

I only use the joystick when necessary; if it's possible to use keypad shortcuts, I use them instead of the joystick. I rarely use the joystick button; I use the left softkey most of the time.

See what I mean. People can't even use the features of the phone practically anymore because of this very problem.

God knows who would buy a j210 etc. if this joystick problem occurs to even the top models i.e. w800

the major problem with the joystick is that dust tend to get under it and causes malfunction. if it won't so tedious to open then cleaning would be no problem
