          I have earched through instructions and in the phones menu but maybe someone can confirm this just in case I havent found it yet. Does the phone have Voice Dialling facility? Thanks.

            I see the S5233 model has an answering machine and a facility to record a phone call - both is missing on my S5230 model. Shame :-(

                  so I wonder how much trouble it would be to try and find a housing for this phone that has the receptable for the stylus and the proper stylus as well (GT-S5233S model). I know with most people this will sound over the top and i know I will void my warranty but i reckon I would go for it. Have to keep my eyes open on ebay for a broken phone or the covers - thats how much I want to have a stylus in with the phone!

                    briggy, 20 Jun 2009Thanks andyr.. I agree with u on ur suggestions to the moan... morenot sure about getting a screen protector - I would hope that if i look after mine and keep it nice then I wont need one but for people who put mobile phone in pocket/purse with keys and money and everything I wouldnt just trust the inbuilt anti-scratch surface on the display. Regarding getting a screen protector will the touch facility be just as responsive? - I would question that.

                                    devinder, 20 Jun 2009sorry sid it does not comes with stylus compartmentto all,

                                    here in Philippines, the Star coomes with stylus compartment on the upper right-hand side. Model is GT-S5233S, and it has 100MB built-in internal memory. Though, from the features/specs being displayed by sellers, it can only handle 4Gb xternal memory. Could you check devindra if this is true for this model, or can we use higher memories?? Also, can we use micro SD-HC instead of just micro SD??

I agree with u on ur suggestions to the moan... moreI completely agree.. just a couple o weeks since i got mine,, n d back cover is gettin scratched, n finger print impz.. n what not.. i jsut hope v get a few back covers in a market soon..

                                      And.. about d stylus..

                                      I'll make it clear to all u ppl.. if u buy Samsung Star ( GT-S5233a) then u don've a stylus compartment but a seperate dongle ( stylus ) is provided in d packages.. which is as big as a USB drive.. but for european users, if u buy d TOcco Lite ( S5230 ) den u do get a stylus compartment...
