    did you get a usb cable with the phone (some reviews i've read have mentioned it but it's not clear if it comes as part of the pack) - if so you should be able to connect up via that. you can then either (presumably) use the supplied software to transfer data OR install the relevant drivers and have the phone appear as a removable drive in windows explorer.

    failing that have you got an infra red port on the pc?

    ok - games are easy - use one of the links listed previously in this thread for w800i (or k750i - they're compatible) games.

    find a game you want on one of those sites and download it to your pc - there may be two files for a single game, a .jar file and a .jad file. so eg: tetris.jar and tetris.jad. it is the .jar file that you need.

    once you have that file on your pc then transfer it to the phone - you need to put the file in the 'Other' folder on the memory stick.

    When the file is transferred use the file manager on the phone to go to the 'Other' folder and you should see the game listed there. Select the game and the left soft key should show 'Install' - click the soft key or press down on the joystick to install the game.

    The phone will ask you where you want to store the game - choose games. Done.

    Now if you go to the entertainment menu you should be able to see the installed game and play it :)
