GPS: nepetrov76, the S81 supports a bluetooth-compatible GPS receiver. What you should do is to install a GPS Java software which is available on www.getjar.com

Skin/Theme: vict, the S81 does not support Skin/Theme

      Unstable firmware. The one i got always hang when trying to reply received SMS. The only good side about this phone is the low price. Anyone looking for serious bargain could take this but look forward for troubling firmware

        here are MMS SETTINGS I hope i didnt forget any steps
        Im not sure if i do remember all steps but it looks a bit like in motorola v3 .First go to services (the earth icon) then to wap settings press option choose add profile and add the name that your provider requires( ie tmobile )
        there you will enter the require values like profile name, home page, ip address (your provider will give you these). Myself I have used the same settings as in mms settings
        Then you have to go to messages and then to mms and from there to (no 7)settings to enter what settings are needed by your provider in the field server info.(here im not sure if you just only need to add the profile you have created before for example tmobile)

          Who would have thought that so many features fit into such a slim (13 mm) shell? The S81 will widen your communication horizon with such features as video telephony or real-time streaming.

                Have used this S81 for one month. Prior to this, I am a big fan of Sony Ericsson T68i, which I haved used for 4 years until now.

                In my opinion, S81 is a great phone! Stylish design, manly look, and solid candy bar build. Play music beautifully!

                Some interesting and useful features:
                - Flight Mode
                - Reject List Caller Group: you can instanly bar incoming call from specific contacts by adding the contacts into the Reject List, which you can hardly do in others mobile phones.
                - Paging LED: From the color of the Paging LED, you can know whether you have received a missed call or a new message.
                - Speed Dialling and/or Shortcut Key.
                - Flashlight.

                  Difference between Siemens and BenQ Siemens is that Siemens is a big organisation with interests in power, civil, nuclear, telecoms (till the merger of Siemens comms division with Nokia is approved, this will be called Nokia Siemens Network - NSN in short) while BenQ purchased Siemens's mobile phone division some months back.

                      IS it true that Asus and HTC are buying this company for their mobile phone division?

                            and a Quad Band too, since some business people travel abroad couple times a year.

                              Please Benq-Siemens release a new S class (s-91) with better battery life (400 H standby, 8.5 H talktime), HSDPA, 3.2 mp, RS-MMC external memory, a better organizer, RDS radio and the most important thing is the software can be updated like the old time siemens (that's what make siemens different with others)... Now i still keep my s75 and pass for S81. By the way, S88 is not a business phone, since it was an entertaiment/multimedia phone it should be E88.

                                yeah the second camera for video call may come in handy as it captures videos from front side and the other camera is placed behind the phone.
