When you plug phone in...client should say "release C key"...and should then spring into action. Did you take the battery put and put it back in before you held the C and plugged phone in?

This phone looks the shiz! Perfect timing for me as well with my contact coming to an end. Managed to negotiate a deal with Orange today where I pay £130 for the phone but will get the same amount back in credit so the phone is effectively free.
One quicky about the GPS. How much data usage will it use, if any? Or is it only run by locking to a satellite? Just curious as it may come in handy for moi and if it uses a lot of data may be well negotiating a package. I bet my question has already been answered however 307 pages would take some time to read.
Thanks in advance for any replies.

That's a good deal for the phone. I paid £120 for it on a Voda upgrade with no credit back!
Using GPS does use data...it uses it to help logging onto satellites (Assisted GPS)...although you can switch that off...but it also uses it to download the maps as you move around. So a data bundle is essential.
We've all been trying to find a good mapping prog that will use maps already installed on the memory card. Apparently Garmin do one for the C905...but it's not listed on their website.

Good to hear he got a brand new one. Nothing about replacement was mentioned in the original post on the slide mechanism problem, which makes it a one-sided story (negative only). Makes it sound like ALL c905-s are faulty in the slide area.
You didn't mention if your friend's second, brand new phone had the same problem. Did it?
An un-biased, neutral report of the occurance would state the (horrible) fact of a new phone having a nasty problem, BUT would also state the positive side, something like "The nice people at Carphone Warehouse/Vodafone/wherever offered an immediate replacement. The replacement phone is OK and doesn't show the same defect."
Omitting half of the truth while emphasising "He's only had it a week and already broken" makes the poster a (very) biased source. It's not paranoid to assume possible intent (to damage the reputation of Sony Ericsson), although I wrote that (the viral campaign bit) with my tongue in my cheek, if anyone noticed
How about the other 495 pages of my post? Have you got an opinion on any of the points I make there?

No one seems to be responding to robbie1's question so I might better repeat it: does anyone have an idea what's going on when you're flashing and the PC won't recognize the phone, even though PC Suite recognizes it perfectly? This still happens with a lot of my friends even though we have installed all the USB drivers from the software CD.
