how's the customization on the W810i? in restrictions as to what you can do with the pics/vid/mp3s you upload? (like set pics for photo call id, set full mp3 for ringtones, etc...)

customization is key in any phone for me personally


You can associate pictures and use full MP3's as the ringtunes for each contact. There are wallpapers, screensavers, etc. - the typical features, and the menus are all pretty intuitive, so its easy to do what you want. All the files are accessible through the File Manager, which organizes everything on the internal memory and the memory card in one place. This feature is something that I think the Motorola's lack.

I am not sure what else you mean by customization?

That's more 'Dan' than passing out in a DJ booth.

VERTiGO, yeah, you're right in that respect. The 810 is a very good phone, but it's cheapened by the fact that it'll be as popular as the RAZR.

God I hate the RAZRs. Stupidest-looking things ever.

As far as this whole losing/wrecking your phone: if you buy a case and a screen protector for them, they'll be safe from practically any external damage unless you drive over it with a car or something. I only take my phone out of my pocket to talk on it, so not much chance of losing it.

A buddy of mine bought the RAZR when it was brand new for like $400. Within a few weeks it was $99 and the whole world had one. He wasnt happy.

I bought the L7 SLVR back in June and so far I only know one other person that has it. I'm not a huge Motorola fan but I honestly can complain about this phone at all.

Don't get a boring ol' phone that anybody here can go and buy at any Rogers store.



This reminds me, you still owe me $20 for that 512 Micro SD, you dirty skank.

I hope that's not true. I don't want my 810 to turn into a RAZR But I think one thing that will hold it back from becoming extremely popular is the fact that it's a candybar, not a flip phone. We'll just have to wait and see.

you answered my question, thanks.
and I agree with you on the above


Posted by Cosmic Fur on Aug-25-2006 15:21:

Check out how many people already have the W810, and it's only been on sale through Rogers for a couple of months. Candybar or no candybar, give it a year and a lot of promotional pricedrops, and more and more people will find out what a kickass phone it is.

It JUST dropped like $100 a little over a week ago. A couple days later my brother bought one. Sadly, I think you're right with this becoming the next RAZR.

Meh. You should buy a phone primarily because you like it and it has good features etc. Granted it's a bitch when everyone else has the same thing, but it's better than having a unique piece of shit.

you're absolutely right, and that's how I made my decision.I just don't like trends; iPod, RAZR...what have you.

Rogers is spending a fortune on promoting it. I suspect significant sales to follow.


Posted by geroin on Aug-25-2006 18:28:

i was originally thinking of getting w600 about 3-4months ago but i always wanted to get w810 espcially when it just came out, it wasnt promoted well before because it was like 300+bucks and it was on the last page on rogers website
I've waited about 3 months and now w600 is not promoted anymore and w810 is promoted like crazy...i dunno if i should wait a little bit longer for the phone to drop to like 100bucks

I just got my phone and it wont let me set ANY .mp3 as ringtones. I phoned sony and they said Rogers has a block on all their cells so unless I get a ringtone from Rogers I can't use any other .mp3 as ringtone

fucking retarted.


Posted by Cosmic Fur on Aug-28-2006 18:34:
