    Hello friends from all over the world.
    I'm currently using Moto T191 that I bought around 3 yrs ago & I decide to change a clolor wif camera function phone. Moto T191 is my 1st phone and friends around me or even the shopkeeper always persuade me to switch to Nokia phone coz of their user friendly function.

    Actually I really don't mind when ppl aorund me using something that are different from mine. Coz i think something that are too common use is not "special" enuf. hahaha...

    However, i think N6230 is a good phone with all the function that I need but the price....er, for a poor student like me who are taking study loan is juz abit burden.

    I was told that N6230 is not suitable to use a MMC above 128MB coz the speed will be slow down. Is that True?

    N i was told that this phone is juz SG400 in Singapore but in Malaysia it sell RM1160(AP). How come like that?

    Can any one tell me wats the different btween AP n Zitron? How come the price diff RM300++?

    N wat is the function of JAVa?I only know it is deal wif games stuff.

    Thanks alot...Bye bye

      To 6230 boy,
      I truly agree that Samsung is good only for those who want to act cool. I too don't like Samsung...infact, i never even think of getting a that phone. I only stated that most consumers in Malaysia switch to samsung bcoz of the design. If u ask me, i rather emphasize more on the function. Instead of Samsung, i accidently bought a Panasonic GD68 which...what can i say...sucks...,bcoz the functions are...too standard n i've sold that phone to my friend n remain using my N5110 until i get my N6230. I just hope that Nokia will improve the design, that's all...too make it 'PERFECT'.

              Has anyone tried using a 512MB or 1GB MMC to store mainly mp3's on their 6230? also when playing only mp3's how long does the battery last?
              Thanks

                Hi y'all, I'm frm Malaysia. I've just bought this fone in a few weeks ago n i have some comments about it.
                1)The shape is elegant. (Business segment and not fashion) 2)Function have everything such as voice recording, loud speaker, FM radio, camera, etc that is build in and not attach externally. 3) Battery performance, sensitive(consume a lot of power)during playing MP3, camera and listening to the radio. To charge is around 2 hours. The cost is quite expensive. In Malaysia, it cost about RM 1500+ as at October-November ie the price only depreciate RM300 from the date of release somewhere at the end of 2003. The disadvantage is that, the contrast for the phone is not adjustable. The buzzer is terrible(ringing tone is not loud despite to switch it to the max level). The phone does not provide any ringing tone composer like the N3210, N8250 etc (perhaps, the trend is not popular then people keep downloading tons from the internet). No flash light like N1100 and N3200. No 'glow in the dark' like my friends N3100. The camera is only 0.3 Megapixel and I'm paying a huge sum of RM1500 (400USD). The polyphony ringing tones support only 24 channels which is limited then copared to my friends Samsung which contains 64 channels. In other words, the sound of Samsung is nicer, sharper and smoother then Nokia. To sum up all, The N6230 is an almost a perfect phone which almost all features included. Well, leave it to Nokia because over here, if u hate it or love it (by posting comments,) we are like talking to the wall and we are not deciding which to improve. Decision making is to be done by Nokia and not consumers. We, as consumers, will only sit and wait, hoping for new models to come and suit your needs because as far as i know, as far as i'm concerned, the N6230 is the BEST model the Nokia has ever made. Previously i was holding a N5110 because i never thing of changing any new phones (at that time) because the skills of creativity and design is getting worse and worse. So Nokia, please, you have prove it to the world that you are the first leading telecommunication. However, in Malaysia, in the central region (Kuala Lumpur), most consumers has switch to Samsung just because the design is getting worst. PLease, hire better designers. Fine, again, we leave it to Finland Nokia. I would like to say, Good Luck to Nokia!!!!! :)

                    to transfer video from PC to 6230 or vice-versa, u need either of the 3:
                    1) DKU-2 cable with drivers
                    2) IR in PC
                    3) Bluetooth in PC via USB or cards

                            EDGE is U2's lead guitarist...


                            OK, seriously, EDGE is simply a faster connection to DL data to your phone, it is also called Enhanced GPRS, and as the name implies that what it is...

                            your 6230 has EDGE, but EDGE is dependent on your provider, if your provider does not have EDGE, then you can not have it, however, if your provider has EDGE, you still have to subscribe, call ur provider...


                            to transfer fils via BT, you must first of all have BT on your PC and that both devices are paired to each other, consult your coumentation to do this, but it is not that difficult, turn ON 6230's BT and make sure that the settings is turn to "visible to all", on your PC's BT put it to discove services...

                                        Hi guys was finally able to convert the MP3's into aac files.the problem was with the PC Suite version i was usin,which was 6.2..downloaded 6.4 & was able to do it..first think i would like to say is when u copy music from an audio cd onto the PC usin Windows media player 7 or 9 the copied music is saved as windows media file..in the newer Windows media player 10 there is an option to save the files as MP3 files..Only files which have been saved on to the PC this way can be converted to aac files usin Nokia PC Suite 6.4..All u have to do is open the saved MP3's usin the Nokia multimedia player then click on file then on save as & u can convert the file into aac,amr etc..All The Best
