The x700 is an overall amazing phone.
It can smoothly play moveys if you install Mobial media player. you will have to pay for this program but it is well worth it.
you can get it hear:

http://www.softpedia.com/get/Mobile-Phone-Tools/Nokia/Mobile-Media-Maker-Nokia.shtml

You get both the software for your phone and the converter for your Cpu to make the files compatible. it fully supports the x700 and works better than all other players i have tested on this phone

As for MP3s you are far better off using oggs. They are smaller and you will not notice the quality diffrence.

you can get the best ogg player hear:

http://symbianoggplay.sourceforge.net/

it is compleatly free - and it will let you use songs as ring tones or allarms, it also has skins etc.

hear is a quick link i just looked up to convert mp3s to oggs. (i cannot remember where i got the one i use)

http://www.mp3-converter.biz/mp3-to-ogg-converter-directory/

also if you goto :

http://mtvoid.com/

(the link is at the bottom of the page for the canculator)

you can download a canculator that is much like the one on the old GD87 - far faster to use than the Nokia junk that comes on the phone.

Controll freek is good also for operating win amp via bluetooth - but foget about the cpu controling feature.

I hope i have helped a few peeps out ther.

PS I know i cannot spell to save my life.

The only let downs on the x700 are the VGA camara - 1.3 MP would be nice, and the fact it only has mono sound. The opperating systm can be a bit slow - but it is the smalist smart phone so that should be expected. Also th OS is made by Nokia so dont blame Panasonic.

    My Panasonic x700 keeps going into hibernation mode and I keep on having to take the battery out and re-inserting just to get it going. It won't take calls and the screen just goes blank and this happens practically straight after powering up. Useless!!

        Sorry buddy, but I'm just telling you that I don't have this problem. Ask Panasonic if you like.
        P.S. Where are you from.

              hey cool dude

              1)yes you can install an external Mp3 player.

              2) you could attach a headset, but it would only have one earphone as the phone doesn't support stereo.

              3)Yes you can hear the songs aloud on the speaker phone

              4)yes you can install all other symbian applications?

              i dont know about the rest of what you asked, take care :¬)

                  I don't know which one of you tried using this phone, but i've got it month ago and there is no such a thing as "battery problem".
                  For all the people that want to byu it and think that the battery is weak, it is not true. For me 4 full days is more than perfect. First 3 charging circles it really stands 1 day, but after that everything is OK. And I have 50 min. talking time, playing games and so on and so forth.

                    Hi, I've had this phone for a while and I've put up with the flaws because I've been really busy, and basically just cos I think it's real pretty! But I wanted to know if anyone has had problems with the phone switching itself off, and also problems with interruptions on the line during calls. I was going to send my phone off to Panasonic about these issues, but now I'm starting to worry that it might be something that I'm just gonna have to put up with. I'll be well annoyed if it is because I switched service providers just to get this phone, and the company I'm with now have been absolutely rubbish from day one. Also, does anyone know if the phone can show call duration during the call instead of just showing it after the call has ended? Would appreciate any help.

                      Hey tk =)

                      Nokia 6260 memory can also be removed without turning off the phone. you need to remove the battery cover first then rotate or flip-open the metal insert for the card.

                                  I had nokia 3650 and 3660 for 2 years.Now i`m tunned into X700.Honest, it looks great, it beats any clamshell Nokia has till now.Plus the menu moves a little bit faster then 6630, and it`s cheapper, looks more shiny.Unlike Nokia 6260, u can remove the Mini SD card without switchin` off the phone.This option is only available for 6680 up.To end it, the camera is acceptable.Face it, if you need high resolution pics, you`ll take it with a camera.

                                    X700, i never face the problem that you say about the camera, and when i use camera in photobase,the speed of capture is fast no slower, same as the original camera in menu. U say slow when you capture photo in photobase right? I think is your phone or card memory problem n maybe your memory is nearly full......

                                      Hi Sarah.

                                      If your main purpose is "texting and photos", i would say this phone will suite you.

                                      But if you're "so meticulous" about image quality or photo quality like that of a digital camera, then this is not for you.

                                      If you're an average camera user just to take a quick snapshot of something or just to capture a moment of a minor event, then this phone will do.

                                        My main problem is battery life. despite a new battery and a repair, still around 24-36 if phone not used and 12 hours if one has 5-6 5 minute calls. Worst battery performance I have ever experienced. The keys are so-so, do not know how long they will last. i would certainly NOT buy this phoen again. You can have mine for 350 Oz Dollar.
                                        Cheers
