if u mean "core pocket media player" for symbian 3rd ed like 3250, im not aware of any version for 3250 yet.. its under development stage..

http://www.coreplayer.com/

http://www.symbian-freak.com/news/006/02/tcpmp.htm

if u really can't wait, u can sign up there and give "Betaboy" an email and hope he will respond to ur mail when he do, then u can b 1 of d testers of d beta version. also, i heard dat gmail accounts are not so welcomed, or is it just dat their server stamp it as a spam or some sort of a bulk mail..

gee, i'll try if i can use my PC connected to d internet and use dat connection to browse on my 3250 when connected thru usb cable.. i guess, its not really meant like dat, normally we juz use 3250 as a modem and use d GPRS/EGPRS connection via our network operators and use it to browse on our PCs.. dat's kinda cool, if dat's really possible..

    normally, if u remove d microSD and insert it back again, all ur files must b still intact. did u properly remove ur microSD by first quickly pressing d power button and choosing "Remove mem. card" or after opening d cover, can u remember of "Closing applications.." msg? if not then u probably accidentally almost corrupted it! b4 u can install default programs without error, first u must reset ur phone to factory by pressing *#7370# and key in 12345 (default when asked), be reminded dat all ur settings, contacts, msgs and other files will b deleted so b sure to manually backup ur files on d internal mem using file mgr of PC Suite and not d "Backup" utiliy on PC suite as d latter will backup all uninstalled system files dat will result into errors once u restore it on ur phone, so juz manually backup ur data.. as for d settings, i guess u hav to re set all of it.. in case u don't know, u can backup ur contacts and calendar entries by going to Organiser > memory > options > backup phone mem. whilst pressing messaging > options > settings > other > memory in use > choose microSD or whatever d name of ur microSD, will save all ur msgs to microSD (only if this is d first time u switch memory in used on msgng...) u can find default apps/games and themes here:

      if u live in the Philippines, Dubai and India if im not mistakin', a 512mb microSD must b included on d box

      best thing to do is to hav ur unit replaced, u got a faulty 1.. i strongly suggest to get nokia 3250 direct at nokia store coz units bundled with network operators (no offense) and unauthorized distributors has problems like freezing when sending msgs, flashing/blinking screens, twisting mechanism does not work, turning on/off itself.. u can hav ur firmware updated to at least V3.21 RM-38 01-04-06 at ur nearest nokia care center.. as far as my 3250 is concerned, i had it for almost 4 months now and never encountered any of d aforementioned probs.. i had V3.18 firmware b4 and had no prob in sending msgs and stuff..

      ng:
      i think u should hav ur 3250 checked up by nokia. r u sure no 1 accidentally dropped ur 3250?

      loudspeaker is 1 of d loudest i've ever heard! almost as loud as SE P910i with better quality! yup i hav 3250 for about 4 months already and im quite satisfied with it! as for d camera, if u take pics in good lighting conditions with a steady hand, it will giv u decent 4 x 6 prints plus d white balance like flourescent, it really works! on d other hand capturing pics indoors will result into noisy ones but applying noise reduction with some image editors like ACDsee will fix d noise and help alot if u plan to print em..

      Pq$q:
      b sur to install nokia PC suite first b4 connecting and transferring files. if u don't hav time, u can use ur phone as a USB mass storage and do d drag and drop or copy paste method, after plugging in cable to ur pc and phone juz select "Data transfer" when asked by ur 3250 and voila do d thing!

      nakz:
      3250 is worth d money u would pay for! juz go and buy it! warning!! i highly recommend dat u only buy directly from nokia store and not thru ur network operator or any unathorized distributor dat has faulty software, besides if u buy at nokia store u'll get a 1 year warranty!

      anna/Ferry Shaw/msa:
      u can try to upgrade ur firmware to at least V3.21 RM-38 01-04-06 OEM nokia thru ur nearest nokia care center to solve dat problem. i dont hav dat issue.


      pratik:
      ur welcome alwayz! sorry but i don't hav d reg key for xilisoft 3.1.8... PX200 will cost u around 3000-4000 indian rupees, PX100 lower but CX300 higher around 4000-6000 rupees.. its d best companion of 3250, believe me! its d best, u can throw ur iPod for good after u listen to those earphones especially PX200 which i highly recommend for ya!

      k t m r o c k s:
      yup, let's juz hope for firmware V3.28 to support album art on music player..

          bitrate is d amount of data in a certain duration of time, it has somethin' to d with d quality of ur videos/music files, d higher it is d better but take note u must know ur devices specs to optimize performance..

          firmware is a software program or set of instructions programmed on a hardware device. it provides the necessary instructions for how the device communicates with the other hardware device

          OR

          firmware is d software version of a mobile phone (actually even digicams, TVs, DVDs and d like has this) usually if d firmware no. of ur unit is lower it means d built in software of ur device is older, take note firmwares r continually being upgraded by manufacturers to improve their device's performance and if any, correct any BUGS or ERRORS dat d current firmware has.. it's like windows xp service pack1 and windows xp service pack2, between em WinXP SP2 is more updated than the SP1, hence SP2 may have more features and/or better performance plus corrected software problems.. in other words firmware updates can improve the performance and reliability, indeed even the basic available functionality of a device, and many devices benefit from regular firmware updates. u can check ur firmware (if nokia) by pressing *#0000# wyl ur on d idle screen or standby screen wer ur wallpaper, signal strength and battery meter is usually shown.. or u can take it from this point of view, firmware upgrade is like re-installing an OS like windows xp on ur PC.. =)

            1) dat's ONLY true if u get ur 3250 from ur network operator or unauthorized distributor, if i were u, juz buy from NOKIA STORE directly to avoid problems

            2) i only dropped my unit 1 time on a wood surface, d camera is still fine 100% working, i suggest u buy d crystal or rubber casing to protect d camera module

                          if u want to make a choice between SE w800 & nokia 3250 go for SE w800. cause it has autofocus+flash which r vary vary important for good picture quality,SE has 4GB extendable memory card slot,sound quality is awesome + its compact.

                                        I just bought a Nokia 3250. I am highly satisfied by its performance/quality/etc. However, sometimes I see network issues..and I can also not check balance on the screen by *123#.. However, if I do restart the phone *123# starts working..but stops working again after the phone is on for few hours...What could be the problem?

                                        I will give the phone 8/10 on my personal usage..
