Well, my phone dilemma has been solved by our kid giving me his old K550i when I was up in Liverpool visiting over the weekend.

It wasn't working properly at first, kept coming up "Please insert SIM", just dirty/flat contacts where the sim goes in. 2 minutes soon fixed that. Groovy!

Secondly, it's now not just any K550i, it's now a W610i, courtesy of crossflashing the phone with the W610i firmware. Gains you the proper Walkman software, ability to use shockwave flash themes/menus and a few other odds & sods that the 610 has over the 550. Unlocked it to any network whilst I was there and jobs a goodun.

Next thing to do once I've recharged the battery (loads of warnings about flashing/fiddling with a less than 90% battery. Play it safe..) is to install some custom camera drivers for better camera/video quality, some audio drivers for louder/better sound quality and then get some custom themes/menus/icons on there.

Happy days. I was running out of things to flash/tweak/geek, so this should keep me going for a bit...
