However, there's no HSDPA indication and it also seems odd to show EDGE when you're on 3G! The handset will try GPRS, EDGE, 3G and HSDPA in that order, so why show if there's GPRS or EDGE when you're on 3G?

SE has been lazy...
In older phone models you can see GPRS-indication when your phone uses 3G coverage.
But of course it would be better to have only GPRS, EDGE, 3G or 3,5G indication at the same time.

can someone please answer this question. Is the ear piece volume in the K850 louder than the K750 ear piece?

Earlier this year I went to the SE Store in London to see demo versions of the K850i and the W910i. At that time, I did rather like the look of both phones but having had the K800i, I don't think I could go for a phone without a xenon flash or a lower megapixel.
When I have seen the dummy models on display in a store recently, the green and blue strips on the side of the phone look very cheap. I didn't notice this on the working demo versions earlier in the year and wondered in the actual phones look like this cheap in real life?
Also, has anybody really struggled to text without making mistakes after several days of use? I can't help but feel I will always be pressing left and right when selecting the 2 or 5 keys. Does practice make perfect?

The package indicates that it supports 850, 900, 1800, 1900 and UMTS. So I think it really supports edge.

I dont remeber people complaining about the k800 when that first came out, every one loved it. Hopefully SE look at its faults and quickly release new firmware

Most people did love it right up to the point that it would no longer turn on and just blink the red LED that then required a trip to an SE service Centre to have the EROM flashed as they were all faulty. Once this was fixed and the newer batches come with the new EROM it was indeed a great camera phone but the first batches all had this problem as mentioned in the numerous K800 threads.

yeah, I had this problem with the EROM with my K800i, it happened 1 year after I bought it, so I guess I was lucky, funny thing was, that the problem occured on the same day I bought my P1i.
Ofcourse, i managed to fix it myself.

well maybe k800 was a huge leap from the K series.
