This phone has excellent features like 2mp camera, huge 250k color screens & bluetooth. However, it looks terrible. I can't imagine there is still a phone out there use charcoal & black plastic. I almost bought this phone but I'll wait as SE & Nokia have some new phones will similar featues with elegant looks! I can't wait!

      It seems that the bluetooth connectivity does not allow file transfer between PCs or other phones. Does anyone know a way around this, perhaps software or firmware update?

          BTW, for those who need to change the langguage to English, you can go to :

          1) press menu button
          2) go to 1 (set up)
          3) then go into 1 again (that is the handphone set up)
          4) go to 6 (that is the langguage set up)
          5) choose 3 (English)

          THat's it

            for those who wants to transfer pic onto the phone, you have to rename the photos (from your computer) to names like: NEC_0019 (similar to those default name that the phone will create) so that the phone will then be able to recognise the pic , and then you will have to move the file to your phone memory in order to use these pic (such as to be wall paper), when you have moved the pic to the phone memory, you can rename them back to whatever name you like.
            Also for those who wants to upload MP3 songs to your miniSD, you will have to rename the songs in not more than 8 characters, eg: 01.mp3 , hope this helps

                  im havin the same problem as rbk, i was wondering if anyone could help?
                  have the 128mb mini-sd card that came with the phone. I formatted it, and then I put it in my card reader so I can put some of the pics I have on my computer onto the phone. But the problem is that the phone can't seem to read the files? But on when the sd card to plugged into the reader and I open the folder up the computer can read the files perfectly. This also seems to happen with all types of files, mp3s, pics, vids etc...
                  The computer can read the pictures that were taken with the phone that were saved on the sd card, but why can't the phone read the pictures that were transferred to it? I know for a fact that I put the files in the right folders. Any ideas?

                          The specs are good... 2Mp camera phone, BUT can it support 3g applications that is the problem. And also MiniSD card are not widely use yet

                            Normally you need to format the sd card with the devide (in this case the phone itself) cause it kinda create some control files

                                      Thank you for your input. Solved the bluetooth thing, I'm going to sign a contract and get a SE T610 with bt headset for free. Therefore not necessary for bt. Can anybody verify the mb limit? I know GX32 can take 512mb or more, but that phone has been around for a while, feel a bit weird getting old stuff. Does anybody know what is the playback format? Does it play 3gp? Thanks

                                        if you want bluetooth, then go for the S700. whereas for a better cam, the N840 would be your choice. it's true that the N840 doesn't have pure mp3 ringtones, but the sound is absolutely amazing. as for the mini SD, the phone comes with a 128MB card. and you can buy them on ebay if they're not available in your country. again about the movie....don't think you can shrink the size of and have it played on the phone.
