first and foremost, no you cannot use a pro card, and no you cannot use an adapter

the phone is not big, just look at a nokia smartphone

now then, my review. love the phone. its what i've been looking for a long time.

pros:
big screen
camera
easy to use
BT
EDGE
850 (i use tmobile but its still nice to have)
theme editor is great
mp3 ringtones
design is unique

cons:
none really. o boo hoo it can't take more than 128, buy an mp3 player, i already own an iPOD

if you like the form, then i say go for it and get it. this vs the s700i, if you need the 850, get this. if you dont, i'd still get this because it looks nicer than the s700

    For people who are torn between the shining silver S700i and the ONYX BLACK S710a:

    Yes, the S700 and the S710 are basically the same phone: Both Tri-Band, Same Software, SAME SIZE. To the eye, the only difference would be in the color, whether you prefer black over silver or what not. Also, the S700 has an FM radio and the S710 has EDGE. HOWEVER, take into mind that these phones were made for different countries. For better reception, stick to whatever model of the phone you find at ur local mainstream Wireless Provider aka what you find at Cingular or T-Mobile, etc. This is because the phones, although both tri-band, they are compatible with different networks serving at different frequencies. The S700 works for 900/1800/1900 and the S710 works for 850/1800/1900. So as a result, the S710 in the US would be getting better reception than the S700 because it can rely on two network frequencies rather than the one that the S700i

    SO if you're living in the US, you're better off with the S710a. If you're bummed about the color like I was, just look for S710 or S710a housings on eBay or some other online store!

                I luv this phone but I am still looking for a good stereo headphone (preferably bluetooth) that I can use while running. Has anyone tried the Bluetake i-phone BT420ex? Is it compatible with the S710?

                            I have a question... How long of a video can you store in a 128MB on the Sony Ericsson S710? Is it a bad or good res.? Is 128MB big?

                              Yes. The phone has video recording capability. My friend has the phone, and it is actually pretty good, pictures look better than the video recording though. And the phone DOES have a usb port....its right in the specs. And the max you can get is 128 MB, I saw that one company made a memory stick duo 128MB x 2=256MB. Some guy said there is an adaptor to fit duo pro sticks, but I havent seen anything like it.

                                      I had the Razor black edition and all i had was problems! Going online was slow (no edge) menus were slow ( the S710 is lightning compared to the razor) and to add on top of that ALL THE BLACK RAZORS HAVE FIRMWARE GLITCH THAT TAKES HORRIBLE PICTURES (when first taken pictures look fine but once saved gets terribly pixelated) And all i got with the motorola was a screen cleaner...great whooopie! I bought the Sony E. s710 i got headphones memory card etc. Well the moral is that the phone it's worth it's value and the razor is not!

                                        does anyone know if it supports the h.264 codec? if there are any video nerds out there h.263 has been the standard for a while but i was hoping that the new one is compatable... anyways if anyone knows holla
