It's true about needing sw installed to charge. Also my USB cable broke, I now use a rubber band to hold it in.

My issues Sony should listen to:
Joystick is crap.
Camera shutter thinks it's open when it's not.
Can't control music externally unlike Nokia's (mic button also acts as skip trac)
When you remove headphones while listening to music, it starts blaring out of the speaker, but with the headphones removed the Music Button doesn't work to switch it off. GAH!

Nokia ftw, I've had this K750i for 10 months and I haven't really enjoyed it compared with the 6230i. Maybe a Samsung or Seimens or Mot this time actually.
