        The first 20 messages goes directly into the SIM, but after that, the next messages goes to the phone. This is regular on samsung phones, and cannot be changed. But if there's some messages among the 20 first you for some reason want to have in the phone instead of the SIM, simply open the message and press the left soft key and choose "move to phone memory" or similiar. And vica versa. Same thing about E720.

              Hi all D500 fans,
              Let me share a wonderful tip on how to activate the built-in speaker phone.When call is connected. Just press the "ok/i" button to toggle between speaker phone and non-speaker phone. It is loud enough even without using the PLUG-IN speaker(called the sound mate) that comes with it. This is not in the manual. Yes, default incoming SMS goes to SIM card. Does anyone know how to set it to go to phone memory? Email me or post here to share.
              cheers, Bob

                      any1 else getting fed up of people saying the D500 has 80MB user memory when it has 96MB user memory? You guys obviously haven't deleted your advertising videos and MP3's the phone has on when new.

                              Does this phone has PROFILES in the menu?
                              Also, can I select call groups which I want to be in silent/normal mode?

                                using this phone was very easy to start with
                                and as a nokia user of many years that was a bonus
                                camera and video was good for a phone
                                i liked the mp3 player but wish it could store more tunes
                                also the battery life could be a bit longer
                                blue tooth was ok but still working on all the functions

                                    i have recently bought a samsung D500
                                    i wud like to list out the positive and neagtive things abt it

                                    +++The look is superb
                                    +++Its slim and slider works well.
                                    +++The colors are good.
                                    +++The sound quality is good.

                                    --- No shortcut to lock the keypad.
                                    --- While zooming and increasing the brightness level while takeing a photo,
                                    the mobile makes a screechy sound and there is no means to mute that.
                                    --- While Zooming in/out a taken photograpgh , the process is so slow and also it makes so much sound
                                    and also it makes sound
                                    --- No Mute button in MP3 player.
                                    --- Cannot minimize the MP3 player.
                                    --- Cannot connect to bluetooth when MP3 player is opened.
                                    --- whenver tried to connect to bluetooth for the first time to another bluetooth it asks for some pass key.
                                    --- cannot zoom images downloaded from another bluetooth device.

                                    Still not done with exploring the features of the Samsung D500, so expect some more positive
                                    and negative comments.
