After my first general review on my new Sony Ericsson W960i, I’d like to share about the WLAN feature (which makes it different from W950). I happened to have wireless internet router at home (WRT54GL) so I tried to use it for connecting my W960i to the Internet. There are some settings which must be filled, including IP address, gateway (router’s IP) and DNS address (I use opendns, check www.opendns.com). After I set the connection setting (Tools > control panel > connections > WLAN), I tried to open the default browser of the W960i (we can also use opera mini or mobile opera which is paid version) and fill in the web address (at that time it was www.yahoo.com). Amazingly, I just got connected with yahoo as if I use my personal computer / laptop.
By using this feature, I hope I can use W960i just in case I was in hurry to check email while I was not at home and there is hotspot (wireless internet) area available. This is very beneficial compared to the laptop, although I still cannot optimally utilized it for the office purposes (typing, presentation, etc). But in my opinion, compared to windows mobile for PDA, I think Sony Ericsson W960i could be superior because it has all features available for mobile users (phone, office, internet, and even Walkman!) with the superiority on the sound quality than PDA (which has average and even low sound quality).
