@p900 lover, yeah it works quite well. Actually I raised a topic yesterday about that but how you can't listen to the Radio via bluetooth, which is a bit dissapointing. see here

@Enrique, not sure what you mean. can you describe better or show a pic?

Enrique means that when u select Power Saver On, then minutes later when u open the phone again, you can see the middle part screen is more difference compare to other display..

I have told many 8800 users try not to select power saver on.. They call it Screen Burn... So select power saver off and you won't worry about the this kind of display.. Even me also same and just select a analog clock screensaver is much better.. hehe..

@miss uk that is a good price but i think i will hang on for a bit more. Thanks anyway.


@masseur i dont think it will work having radio via bluetooth cos you still need an anteena. But there should be a way to have the headset pluged in but chose to use the bt headset.


@babysmile what do you mean by Screen Burn? and how do i set analoge clock?

yeah, but I'm sure now there is no way for radio via BT

also... as babysmile mentioned, the analogue clock is a screensaver so go to settings, display, screensaver, screen savers and choose analogue clock

the 8800 doesn't have the same capability as the V3, for example, where you can choose to have the standard clock as digital or analogue

I have that screen burn lol make that 102 problems on this 8800! still a great phone though, ordered a brand new one off someone in this forum

As for the analogue clock, I thought I set it to digital, and I was in bed and the light came on from the screen saver I looked down on my phone and thought "shit" the 2 big lines looked like I cracked the screen! Was very relieved when I found out it was a screen saver!

Lost in my house

Well i mean the black ones are just sorta plated silver right? So if the engraving it deep enough i'm guessing silver, but more than likely give a greyish sorta look to it... at least i'm hoping!

Now I just need another cover

Still using this as my every day phone. Other than battery life, I cant fault the phone.

There is reportidly a 8800i coming out in the near future also. Hope its not the simple makrk up as with the 6230-->6230i situation.

my information from a previously unknown source is that it will be called 8810 and be available towards the end of the year, but there has already been an 8810 of course so I am somewhat skeptical at that info

I actually wouldn't mind this, id be more than happy for the phone to look the same, with a few minor upgrades
