vipin,

The number of photos that can be stored in normal VGA 640x480 mode depends on the quality of the pictures (dark pictures take less space). The photos are between 25-50kB each. It also depends if you store other games/videos etc. To begin with you have between 10-12 Mb free space depending on which operator you chose. If you just keep photos you can store between 200-400 pictures in the phone.

        k300 PhotoCall function actually can be set at your any contact,go to phonebook-choose any contact and press more-edit contact-at the third tab,there a picture option and you just choose any piture then finish n save.When you call the contact,the picture will come out.

              For Windows®98:

              1. Insert the CD into the CD-Rom drive.
              2. Insert the cable into the USB port of the PC.
              3. For Windows®98 and Windows®2000, click “Next” until you can select “CD-ROM drives”. Then continue clicking “Next” until the “Finish” option appears. For Windows®ME, the Add Device Wizard will automatically search floppies and CD-ROMs for the drivers and install them. Simply click “Finish”. This information is also available on the CD sleeve.
              NOTE: The phone does not have to be connected during installation.

                    The screen does not go out when talking due to that one should be able to check in phonebook etc when talking.
                    There is one option which off course saves a lot of battery and that is to turn of the light ALL the time - main menu > settings > display (joystick right 2 times) > light > off. But then you need very good light all the time. I don't recommend it unless you are somewhere where you cannot charge and only will answer the phone or know the phone numbers you will phone without using the phonebook.

                      this phone is great. seems to have very good battery life. i've had it for a while and it lasts about 6 days (24/24h online)

                      I am surprised to see that the screen does not go out when talking...this would save even more battery
                      Did i miss the option
                      Apart from this, volume is good and strong (voice and ringtone)

                        My girlfriend has this phone so i know a bit about it. It doesnt compare at all to the K300. Although the screen is TFT, the display looks more cartoony than real images. Camera is slower as well.

                          plus indicates strength of Nokia 3220
                          minus indicates strength of K300

                          Much less memory, 3 MB vs 10-12 MB (--) - is there much use of camera/video with so little memory?
                          VGA camera, same kind as K300
                          Video functionality, however can only record up to 4 minutes (-)

                          Half the talktime (3,5 vs 7hrs) (-)
                          No IR (-)
                          Less polyphonic channels (16 vs 40) (-)

                                      The mp3 player capabilities of K300 is meant mainly for playing ringtones. It can play long duration audio files in size of 10 mb
                                      but this actually requires that you do not use this memory for pictures/videos/sms etc.

                                      10 mb of music usually means about 10 minutes of music, so again, the music capability isn't very big and it was never intended to be a music phone - Sony Ericsson has their Walkman phones for this.

                                      The sound quality is quite good for a phone of this size and if you don't press the volume to the highest level (where it will sound more distorted). I have a 5 minute song which I play for my little son when he is bad-tempered ... works every time! :o)

                                      The sound quality is much better than in Nokia 3510 which both had fewer polyphonic ring tones (3510i is the first phone from Nokia, which supported polyphony (4-tones vs K300i which has 40-tones)) and also had an average ring volume.

                                      If the ring volume is high enough is both a matter of taste and about chosing the right ring signal. Ring signals with higher frequencies will sound higher. The ring signals of K300 are higher than Nokia 3510i.

                                        I have a DCU-15 cable of K300i and everything is working fine.I suggest that buy a infrared cable/infrared USB port are more better because DCU cable very difficult to install to your computer although you hav e all the driver and software.Finnally,this phone is very good and cheap esp the camera.
