Just got a Nokia 5800 : A couple of questions ??

g4fne

Is it possible to set up the phone to periodically repeat the alert. For instance if i miss a call or a text, an audible alert to sound every couple minutes or similar ??

I'm after a screen protector & silicone case. I see eBay is flooded with different types. Do they vary in quality or much of a muchness ??

I had bought a screen protector from ebay 4 of them for 2 pounds and they were absolute crap. dont fit to the phone, covers the sensors and a lot of crap.
But I bought another one from https://www.dealextreme.com
under a pound you can get it delivered to home. Also a leather case from them can be bought for around 2 quids. good quality though.

I have the 5800
The speaker is great. Makes an excellent portable MP3 player

Hi, I found a screen protecter from my local sunday market, it fits perfectly. I also bought a case, but to answer your fone, you have to flip the case over, so i have gone with a silicone cover, so it doesnt slip out of my hands.
Im also still trying to find out if i can set a tone that goes off evey minute or so for messages, but have just set a song for now.

I bought a decent screen protector on eBay for £2 shipped and it's still on the phone. A friend bought the same for their 5800 too. I think most of the ones sold on eBay are OK, although the advantage of buying one at a stall/shop is that they are usually quite good at installing them too

Just that white flashing light on the middle button the reminds you off a call/text.
I'd imagine like most things, the quality of the case will be hit and miss.

Only negative so far with the 5800 (only had it a few weeks) I find the reception of the radio to be awful, I work outdoors and have generally got 1 earphone in listening to the radio and for phonecalls, never any problem with my previous phone a SE C905, but this 5800 reception really is bad to the point at time it's impossible to hear with the crackling, this is on generally strong stations, is this just mine or is this a general problem?

My 5800 arrived yesterday, and I want to link my hotmail account to it, but am a complete technophobe, and have failed miserably. Anyone know how to do it?!

Based in Hong Kong so everyone please be warned.

just 2 add that i brought 6 screen protectors on ebay for the grand price of £1.95 including del, fit perfectly and no air bubbles. must be very hit and miss with the traders on there and i hit lucky.
