Hi all. I’ve got the new W53CA (I live in Tokyo). Its an OK unit but…
There isn’t any English manuals to go with it, and probably never will be. The unit is too complex to figure out all of its features without it, so you’re going to need a friend that can read Japanese to help you.
I does not play mp3 audio files! Only kmf format (ugh!), and you have to use their (au) Lismo Music Port software to load the music files into the unit (again, only Japanese Win XP OS can be used for this).
It has no extrnal display.
Its e-mail client is a little funky when entering in ABC mode.
It uses the “Micro” SD card, which is still a little pricy. Its good for storing pictures though.
I haven’t figured out how to use the dictionary yet (its all in Japanese).
The internet browser is a wasted feature on a cell phone (IMHO).
It takes good pictures! It even has a neat little LED flash!!!
