    John_J, and you have asked o2 about new software have you? No I thought not.

    So yes, you are spreading rumours... I doubt you work for P4U CPWH Littlewoods and all tehse shops SO YOU WOULDNT KNOW.

    John, the phone is good... it might have been your handset was faulty...

    my x3 saves its settings, the camera is good, and the same as all the features!

    Kane, 20+ pages are about this phone's release date. 20+ pages are people happy with the phone, a further 20+ pages are people asking about mp3's and the message tone, so please, before you jump to conlcusions, why don't you try R E A D I N G some of the pages first, eh?

    And When I mean people who have the x3 and are happy with it, this means friends, and people I talk to on the train / bus or places I go.

    There is nobody I have met that thinks this phone is crap... not in the real world. Go figure...

    There is one thing to remember about mobiles which NOBODY on these forums considers, that EVERY PHONE has its bugs / disliked features.
    Even people with the GX30 are pissed off considering they can't get MP3 ringtones, people with the 7610 have reported numerous problems, and the moto e1000 has EXACTLY the same blurryness as the x3, and they are the same price.

    And, I have not seen the x3 ANYWHERE for under £150. So please, make sure your facts are right first! Have you got the fact that they are stopping being sold in writing? I have, in writing and recorded conversation that BenQ Have released a newer version of the firmware which will be available to download soon!

    So please ACTUALLY ASK THE COMPANY before you slag them off! And, if you do slag them off, slag off the appropriate FUCKING COMPANY!!! EVERYONE HERE BLAMES o2 WHEREAS THE PEOPLE WHO MAKE THE PHONE ARE BENQ!!! GO FUCKING FIGURE!

    If this carries on, and people don t take my advice, I am out of here. This site can sometimes lie as well, re: memory levels in certain phones and features, and considering that this is an open forum, I am not going to take any of these reviews as serious. The only reviews, or peoples opinions I trust are those on registered forums, so Ta-Ta.

    If anyone has any genuine queries, email me... anyone else, goodbye.

    Now, for the final time,

    TO GET MP3's ONTO THE X3, YOU NEED A MEMORY CARD / READER / ADAPTOR, AVAILABLE FROM ALL GOOD RETAILERS! THIS IS MENTIONED IN THE MANUAL, CONVIENIENTLY PLACED UNDER THE SECTION LABELLED "MP3"!!!

    THOSE OF YOU COMPLAINING ABOUT POOR BETTERY LIFE WHEN LISTENING TO MP3's, ACTIVATE FLIGHT MODE AND POWER SAVING MODE!!!

    Final Time, Bye Bye...

      Why do you think so many people have the x3 and are happy with it? well 95 pages of loveing this phone? think not more like 95 pages of people asking wtf is wrong with it. i have not seen one who said this camera is great,this mp3 is great, just look on other phone forums you might get 20 odd pages on the phone, most saying this phone is great

          The Phone is ready to sell...!

          WHY DO YOU THINK THEY RELEASED THE PHONE IN THE FIRST PLACE???

          WOULD THEY RELEASE IT IF IT WAS EXTREMELY BUGGY? NO.

          Stop spreading rumours.

          The Link and P4U have stopped selling the x3 in certain shops... not all!

          Why do you think so many people have the x3 and are happy with it?

          Point made

              hey all,asked about buying a 02x3 today in fones 4 u, and was told.
              we stoped selling them, as the phone was not ready to sell, so many bugs.
              is this true?
              in the link thay sell for £129, but again i was told there are much better phones in that price range by one of the sells team. so i have not brought a phone yet as i had my hart set on a 02x3, but i was put off buying it today

                  Claire, I think thats a prob with your battrey... When you are only using the phone for mp3's, turn power saving and flight mode on... almost triples the life...

                                        Go to www.cbfmobile.com
                                        it is a really good website for free poly ringtones, all you have to do is select the tone you want type ur number, network and it gives you a code. Then you go on ur WAP/GPRS on ur mobile and go to the URL it says http:/d1m.net sumthing like that and type the code you got and the ringtone will download. THE ONLY THING IT COSTS YOU IS THE GPRS WHICH IS REALLY CHEAP OR IN SOMECASES FREE!
