[Bug 275633] Re: The new Sony Ericsson W980 mobile phone

2009-02-25 Thread Samuelll
I too have am having problems with this phone.

In 8.10 the phone appears as a mounted device, however it is listed as
only 3.4gb, instead of something close to 8gb. I also cannot transfer
files to the device, any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Also interested to hear from Tobster on his experience with 8.10 as he
has mentioned that he has the phone working.

Thanks,

Sam
