Are you telling us that US is NOT THE WORLD???
Are you saying that the world DOES NOT revolve around US???
You are not serious about the existence of OTHER people on this planet???
And your date is wrong, how can it be 2007 when the world was only discovered 500 years ago, and the first civilization was created a little over 200 years ago!

MAN! I hate you winning, ignorant cry-babies with your idiotic measurements and your stuck-up "WE are the WORLD" attitude! Well NO YOU ARE NOT!

Here's a news flash for you, there's around 6,525,170,264 people on this planet and around 298,444,215 in US. DO THE MATH! Thats means that 95% of people on this planet DON'T CARE ABOUT USA!!! And MOST of them even hate it!

SO DEAL WITH IT!]]>Feb 6th 2007 10:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/Feb 6th 2007 11:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/
Living in a country that invented the telephone, the computer, the internet tends to raise our expectations of ourselves. Spoiled, perhaps. But also we are reminded of what it takes in these times to remain competetive in this quickly advancing, technologicly proficient planet. ]]>Feb 6th 2007 9:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/May 15th 2007 7:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/Feb 6th 2007 10:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/
We make a lot of products and are home of two of the major choices for retail operating systems. We have many computer and automotive companies. when things are not cost effective for our time we outsource them to the rest of the world, pumping their economy full of US dollars.

I assume you're referring to Alexander Graham Bell (a Scot living in Canada)?

> the computer,
I assume you mean the first programmable computer - Colossus invented during WWII at Bletchley Park, England?

> the internet tends to raise our expectations of ourselves.
I assume you mean the WWW, invented by Sir Tim Berners-Lee at CERN, Switzerland?

Just to be clear, which country are we talking about here? :) ]]>Feb 6th 2007 11:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/Feb 6th 2007 12:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/
You, sir, are out of your mind. You obviously must not be from one of those fabled lands that isn't America. ]]>Feb 6th 2007 11:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/Feb 6th 2007 11:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/
But why the hell did they switch from Memory Stick Pro Duo, I already have 2 gb. And will someone please tell SOny Ericsson how successful they could be if they just launched their more stylish phones over here in the states, I weep for not ever gettinig the chance to know the w830, w950, or now the super badass w880, damnit.]]>Feb 6th 2007 11:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/Feb 6th 2007 2:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/Feb 6th 2007 1:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/

Brad, this looks like a mild upgrade. The only differences I've been able to find (besides the obvious physical one) is that it has a2dp, walkman 2.0, the interface, and using m2 memory.]]>Feb 6th 2007 2:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/
Yeah that's what I hoped would fix it too, but it didn't. My phone is 3 weeks old, it had the hissing when I tried it first time, and it was still there after the firmware upgrade. So then I went looking on the net for a solution...turns out that many more customers have this problem (as well as others, such as mixing up ID3 tags) and best thing is; SE doesn't care! They officially said that they wont address this problem. Funny thing is, the first w810i didnt have the problem, UNTIL their firmware was upgraded. This hiss problem is a software problem, later added because of a bugfix. Talk about customer-service...]]>Feb 7th 2007 11:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/Feb 10th 2007 11:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/06/sony-ericssons-W610-walkman-for-us-plebes/BTW, take a round trip to Europe and you will be amazed with the advance in the tecnologie, a very small exemple is the FM radio with the RDS that is working sinse 1993 and here in US only sinse 3 years ago.
And you see a lot more advance in cellphones in Europe because they have to concern only with GSM and in US they have to look at the IDEM (Nextel) TDMA, CDMA PCS... so many different tecnologie in a "small" country, is that the "united"? you can't even send or receive messages from a Nextel, and let's stop here for good.]]>Feb 21st 2007 8:17PM
