waiting to receive one of these from Amazon... they can't be as bad as everyone says, especially after a firmware flash... can they ...?

Sadly it's worse than you could imagine :-( it teases you as when it works its really cool (for about 10 minutes).

Good luck, mine is gathering dust on my computer desk as I type this.

Agreed. I really should sell mine to get rid of it but I just hope that one day it will work and not just irritate me.

I know I will think otherwise once I get it, but cmon, arent you lot all doing something wrong?

I've actually ordered a SE MBW-150 as well as I really like the watch concept...

[racingclub]

well, my MBW-150 arrived yesterday and works great with Openwatch - no connection issues this far

However, after 15 mins with the LV its back in its box and awaiting a return to Amazon. I flash upgraded it, installed the latest LV app, but none of the features worked to my satisfaction - no calendar (just a buzz and a X), no FB, no Twitter, no missed calls, and it was showing old texts.... hmmm

did yoou set up the actual items you want to sync from facebook and twitter. News feed is deselected by default.

Also I think the calendar only shows if there is an event at that time, havent looked into it but its not the best feature. As for the old texts, you need to clear them from the liveview app, pretty poor implementation really.

Which phone are you using it with?

Twitter & FB appeared to be setup correctly in the LV app..

This was on a Blade / SanFran

In contrast, really enjoying my MBW150

[Diggedy]

If it supported an app like sporty pal (ie shows distance travelled, time etc) id actually buy one of those watches

and yeh the defy is good, I loved my desire and although the defy is not as quick its a good little phone
