              "I don't mind admitting it but I'm a fair Star Wars fan and seriously, if Darth Vader had a phone, this would be it! ;) "

              Truly one of the greatest selling points of this phone, It looks awesome. It's got heaps of good features, and carrying spare batteries is no biggie, especially not for me.

                    Has anyone else had problems with this phone restarting a lot. I think it might be due to overheating? It doesnt seemto happen unless I have it in my pocket where its obviously a bit warmer?

                          You say you can get 3/4 days out of the battery by setting brightness to lower levels but do you turn it off at night or leave it on all the time?

                          Also can anyone tell me if its possible to charge this phone through the usb cable!?

                          All in all I'm pretty happy with it. Besides battery life its more or less quality!

                                Notice that others have had the same problem as me - connecting phone to PC by USB. I have also noted the suggestions made. However, still have the problem. Can anybody help please. Have Windows XP with SP2. Thanks

                                    have just bought this phone, thought it looked great. impressed with pics & video but find it very confusing to use as yet!!!
                                    can't seem to get into the phone memory to add contact no's, it just keeps telling me my sims full & won't let me go any further. also does anyone know what the highest transflash card is that this phone will take?
                                    please someone help as i'm thinking of going back to my motorola v500-one touch & very easy to work.
                                    i really am trying to give this phone a chance.
                                    thnx. frances.

                                      hi for everyone who cant get mp3's as ring tones all you have to do is covert mp3 to aac using itunes, then copy the mp3 once converted and paste it into a folder on your hard drive, then send it to your phone via bluetooth its really easy once you know how to do it.

                                        I think the phone is great the photos from the camera are the best quality I have ever had from a mobile phone. Just 2 things are annoying 1.the headphones are the worst, keep popping back out of the ears as they are to heavy!
                                        2. you can only use the tones provided on the phone for message tones and they all sound really bad!!
