found the battery more reliable after loads of nightly charges, seems to improve in time
the phones got everything you need now i managed to get a decent ring volume
the SE is no doubt better for battery, but then the compromise is its massive size (reminds me of old Motrola's first introduced on payg in UK), feature wise i think they are on an even par apart from the camera is better quality in the SE, but then I use my Z500 for calls, Ipaq via bluetooth
to (manually) connect to 3G for web access on the move so for me its a treat
Ericsson/SE has been massively unreliable for me in the past so I dont touch them with a barge pole, havent for the last few 2 years
Are you comparing the Z500 with the V800?
According to Orange the K600 is even smaller and lighter than the K750 and that phone to me is fine."An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind" - Mahatma Gandhi0 -
personally if were interested in a 3g phone I would wait for the Nokia N70 (out in september), its the bomb!!!!0

The software does not work and so I sent it back. Helloooooo Sony 800i
When you say it doesn't work, did it keep saying that access was denied?"There are no pockets in a shroud..."0 -
No. I tried to link it to the computer with the datlink cable. The phone and computer would not speak with each other. I called Samsung tech help and they said that the computer program which allows you to upload and download MP3 was faulty. They were working on it, but I got impatient and so I thought, it's going back. I think it would be a great phone, but because I could'nt get it to work I did'nt want it.
They offered me a Sony 800iWhich I immediately saw had a 516mb memory for MP3 . Samsung was only 32mb. It also had a 2mpix camera which was larger than Samsung by 1mpix. So I thought give it a whirl. I hope it connects to the computer as I want to load it up with my favourite tunes.
NO to pasty tax We won!!!! Just shows that people power works! Don't be apathetic to your cause!0
