    i bought one of these a month ago.i paid almost 200$ for it.it`s a good phone but it has some litlle things which must be fixed.It takes clear pictures but it needs a lot of light.It`s hard to find .mids and to download java games.i for example i have problems with java.moreover it`s extremly hard to find a data cable.I tried at GMB(i`m from constanta) but i couldn`t find.I found only an infrared serial port which wasn`t compatible.if you find a data cable please let me know so i`ll go and buy one for myself.thanks

        it's a good phone but it has a few problems infrared port suports only 50kb to be transmited or receveid,camera needs a lot of light to take a good picture but the quality is very good,animations plays slow,games and apps are a bit hard to find,pictures are hard to receive unles you use the right software to convert them, recordings are stored in a crazy format *.fr and you cant send them by infrared, it has a defragmentation proces that is kind of stupid(after you send mms) well thats the bad side
        the good things about it are:
        cool design
        loud speaker
        infrared is compatible with all phones
        BeDJ a great ringtone composer
        great sound quality
        7 mb memory
        tv slide show
        the adp format for plays quite well and you can convert small mp3(or part of an mp3 about 10 secons)
        a good phone for this price
        if anyoane wants games or apps for this phone contact me

                first of all, this phone is quite cheap :) its only around $ 129 US dollar. I love the design of it... looks nice.. u got to see the real stuff then u know :) of course u cant compare with those expensive stuff like NOKIA, SE, Motorola, Samsung etc which got Bluetooth, Megapixel cam, external memory, etc.. U should check the price as well.. For some people who loves clamshell phones (flip) but they cant afford to buy those expensive stuff so I suggest to buy this one :) Heii even I will buy this one too, for my collection :) its nice and pretty cool design too...

                            The worst phone I ever had (I was using Nokias and SE before). Maybe it looks nice - that is why I bought it - but the software is VERY stupid... :-((

                            For example:
                            - phonebook entries are sorted in a different way for UPPER and LOWER case letters;
                            - that is why you cannot search entries in phonebook;
                            - SMS are sorted in completely unknown way - looking like "sorting by contents" :-))))))))
                            - the phone is extreamly slow (f.ex. you have to push arrow down two or three times to move the cursor one line down - on nearly any list);
                            - the "red button" (on-hook) not always works;
                            - when editing SMS-to-send, when you leave the phone for a moment, the phone goes for a screensaver, and the message is lost;
                            - you cannot use national-letters in SMS or phonebook entries;
                            - when you turn the phone on it plays extreamly LOUD some disco-music, which cannot be silenced nor turned off - what makes it difficult to turn the phone in a discrete way (e.g. at work or at hospital);
                            - difficult menu - sometimes you have to dig six or more levels down to get some simple function (e.g. outgoing calls counter);
                            - when you put an alarm (buzer) into a sleep mode (7 min.) there are no way to turn it off (you have to wait this 7 min. and press "OK" twice - if you press any other key, you have to wait another 7 min. for next try)
                            - etc. etc.

                            Generally: looking nice, but poor software engineering. Let's hope Philips will employ better specialists soon and a firmware update will solve all problems...

                                      Like other Philips phones, this one has a very attractive design. There are not some functions, such as Buletooth. However, the price is acceptable. What a pitty ... it is not sold in Vietnam yet! T_T
