to all those expecting this phone to vibrate at the same time with melody, dream on. all samsung phone are like that. wonder why samsung won't let it ring and vibrate at the same time.people download music to their cellphone not only to enjoy but most of all to impress those beside them. by the time the vibration is over, you have most probably already answering the phone. And samsung phone have great polyphonic tone but not the loudest so when you are in a crowded or noisy area, chances are you won't be able to hear your phone ring especially if you place it in your pocket or in your bag unless the vibrate mode is on.

OMG, just got mine today and I am in love. This fone totally rocks, it's small it's powerful and easy to use! Can't wait to buy a bluetooth dongle so I can transfer songs and pics.
Anyone thinking of buying one, DO IT. you wont regret it, this fone is amazing. I found it cheap at mfone.com.au

Yes you can take a picture of yourself by using the external screen as a mirror. Just simply hold your "right soft button" you can switch from video and camera by pressing the play/pause button (used for mp3 player) The camera just blinks a little but the icon below your face, tells you what mode you have selected.
I had problems with USB cable, i downloaded this:
http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/downloadfile/ContentsFile.aspx?CDSite=SFC_EU_EN&CttFileID=384798&CDCttType=SW&ModelType=N&ModelName=SGH-E730&VPath=SW/200508/20050819134548328_PIMS_File_Manager.exe
Its the pims and manager software. I installed it and the usb worked fine.
I also have tried the bluetooth dongle. Bluetooth = auto detected, drag and send. EASY AS THAT!
Then from your phone use "send to bluetooth" this uploads your stuff FROM PHONE TO COMPUTER.I found out that bluetooth was alot quicker (believe it or not).
The phone can have Vibrate for 3 rings THEN a melody. I havent found out how to get both at the same time. (by the time i get the answer they usually hang up)
You can have GSM browser which is like £1 a minute or use WAP (which took me a week to figure out because settings COULDNT be received) I use wap websites to get my games.
Last answer to the "where do the usb connect to the phone" question is:
The usb connects to where the power cable goes. When connected to the computer via usb, the phone starts to charge. (THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN WITH BLUETOOTH)

Ok first of all i would like to say that it took me a while to work out how to put ringtones, mp3 and pics onto my phone.. But now i have it all sussed!! Everything works fine for me.. I can upload and download things super easy.. This phone rocks so hard! Love it! A must for anyone who wants a multimedia phone..
Samsung phones don't ring and viabrate at the same time.. U need to download mmf ringtones in order for it to do so.. I done it and it works great :D
I have uploaded all my pics from my pc to my phone.. Great image quality..
The only things that suck about the phone.. is its got no memory card slot and if u accidently exit the sms screen it won't appear with the original text which is a bit gay..
Hope this review helps yall with ya purchase.
Im from Sydney Australia so please no questions about overseas stuff.
Laterz yo'

i see that a lot of people are having trouble with the data cable, i had a problem to with i, returned it and got a bluetooth connector instead. the bluetooth is so much easier and faster. its quick and easy to transfer pics, videos and mp3's.to transfer the those applications you just have to drag it into the samsung folder after installing, i suggest for you all to get a bluetooth connector.

Some things I want to know about this phone:
-Can you upload Java games and programs from PC on it?
-Can this phone itself open common web pages (that don't include `wap` in their adress? If it can't, can you put some browser on it (like Opera) so it could open?
