@denong- hmm, u can try your service provider's MMS service sent to the recepient's email rather than the phone number... i think it should work the same.  |

@denong-
Sending thru MMS may not be a very reliable way especially since you are a Globe subs. Globe's MMS is not very reliable.
If you have a POP3 e-mail account, you can actually setup a POP3 client in your P800 and use your P800 to send and receive e-mails with or without attachments (can be pictures or audio). Medyo may charge ito (0.25 per kilobyte because you will be using Globe's internet gateway, not the WAP one. WAP used to be okay but when Globe realized the amount of data traffic going thru their WAP gateway, they blocked all other accesses except those that are pure WAP). It may not cost you an arm and a leg though. Isang get/send will probably only cost you twenty five cents (cheaper than text--huh).
Setting up the POP3 mail client may not be that complex if you are a bit techy. If you want you can join the phil_p800_club at yahoogroups.com and I can send you a detailed instruction on how to setup a POP3 or IMAP4 e-mail client in your P800. Mahirap dito sa web based forum (am not using an unlimited DSL account).
Okay. Hope to hear from you soon.

you're right globe's mms is not reliable. they charge you P5 per send with a limit of i think 60Kb lng ata. i had this infuriating experience a few days ago when my gprs is unavailable. i received an mms notification but ican't retrieve it. since their gprs wasn't available till the next day, i already received the sms notification that i have to retrieve the mms via their website and that sucks!!! |

Talagang tinaga. I have already seen several computer shops selling the 128 MB Duos in Megamall, Shangri-la, Alabang Town Center, and SM Southmall and the average retail price is P 8,000. The 64 Mbs are now at P 4,500 (malas, I got mine when it was still at 5,500 and was sold in only one shop in Megamall). Moral lesson: Don't buy the 128 Mbs now, wait for a few more months or when the 256 Mbs come out and don't buy the 256 Mbs when they come out, buy them when the 512 Mbs come out.
A word of advice though; there is nothing wrong with having a lot of spaaaaace (128 Mb) but I find the 64 Mb to be comfortably big enough.
I load MP3 pro instead of MP3 (you can opt to load the Ogg version) for audio because they are half the size. So I am able to fit more songs. Even with Opera (the biggest app for the P800) installed and other software I bought from Epocware and downloaded from My-Symbian I still have enough leg room. The only time I would consider an upgrade to the 128 or 256, when it comes, is when a video recorder app is already available. I wouldn't even think it practical to store video for long even when it comes. I only store at least one video file for "show-off". You wouldn't want to watch a video (movie or MTV or yourself) over and over. So, if a new video comes, replace the old ones. I say this out of my experience with my laser/DVD collection. After buying a number of them, I seldom go over them and even try to see a title over again (that's why I don't buy them anymore, I just rent them). The only time I do that is when a friend comes over and would request to see a certain title.
Shooting video yourself would be a different story. But if you manage your video files well, you still would not require a very big storage. If you regularly archive your files to your desktop (of course you would have an unlimited size there--40 Gb at the minimum?--and very cheap) your Duo would be kept clean of old files and will always have room for new ones (then you can keep on shooting--pictures and videos).

What's with the antena??? The concept is pretty exciting but don't know if this is feasible. It seems to REQUIRE a hardware upgrade/modification for it to work. Also, i doubt if it will support cable so I still wont be able to catch Meteor Garden when I get stuck in traffic (whaat? I got hooked!)
