    Ah.. that explains why the menu speed improved with the latest update (R8BE001). The Java version was upgraded in the last release.

    Thanks!

    Re: w580i OS

    If the phone itself is based on Java, then why do java applications take so long to load? It seems like it opens a JRE first, just like on a PC.

    I thought that Java needed an Operating System to run in?

    The 'normal' SE phones are running an OS called Enea OSE, what is a realtime OS, and it is NOT java based. Yes, they have 'installed' the j2me(Java 2 Platform Micro Edition), but nothing more.

    W580 isn't a Symbian phone. I think P1i is.

    Re: w580i OS

    so basically its not a Java based OS, but an OS that has j2me integrated within? I have a w580i, where does it say?
