You just reminded me of my Nokia-toting Bosses who couldn't change the ringtones and I had to do it for them. I always wondered why ringtones was hidden somewhere in "Profiles".
I haven't owned a Nokia yet, but I hope to someday. |

Speaking of problems with that Finnish monster, this morning I had to set-up a colleagues GPRS...he's on Cell C and he uses a 6101.
For all people outside SA, Cell C is possibly the worst network to use for GPRS...the process of setting it up is convuluted and using a Series 40 phone doesn't make it much easier.
I got the phone set up for GPRS only realise that only a certain amount of memory is reserved for video, pics and tones...which makes downloading anything a mission implausible.

@Areafada: I don't think anyone disputes the fact that Nokia phones are user friendly- that's the reason they're number one in sales.
What 786KBR is specifically mentioning is the fact that synchonising the phone with something like Outlook is painful.
BTW, who here uses Cell C GPRS? I've noticed that in their cell info they also display "EDGE, 3G, HSDPA enabled" which probably means that soon they'll be launching 3G and HSDPA services, it's probably still on trial.
I love South Africa because we're a country of so many ironies at times you can't help but laugh. Zuma wants to become president, this is how we deals with HIV/Aids.

Thats a joke right??
I promise that the 6230 and 8800 are worst than a K750 in terms of user friendliness!!
I think the "more" button on a Sony is really priceless, something Nokia dont have...
I think thats the reason Vodafone is using SE menu structures... |

@786KBR: Excuse my ignorance, are Vodafone also using these SE menus in their branded Nokia phones?

No comment on Nokia vs. SE, different strokes for different folks...
As for watching live broadcasts in the Eastern Cape, no luck

The 6230i, 6020 do use it and the rest of their lower spec phones, not the 8800... or S60's.
But i see most of the Samsungs are using the same menu's... |

@da krypsta: Did a Google search and found the article. Don't stress about DVB-H too much, because it's a trial very few people will have the phones. By 2010 PE, East London and the other smaller towns around the Eastern Cape should have DVB-H coverage.
