The P800 is NOT an MP3 player. Nor is it a professional digital camera. It's not even a PDA. It's a PHONE that happens to have PDA functionality, mp3 capabilities, and a small still cam.

Still feel like buying the P800? Well...

To answer your questions, no it does not have any EQ controls. The stereo earphones it comes with are proprietary, so you can't use any other earphones except those that came with the phone. You can do other stuff while mp3s are playing, but this will occasionally cause the audio to skip or pause. Returning to the Audio player will cause the current file to stop playing all together.

Still feel like buying the P800? Another thing...

The phone only comes with a 16MB Memory Stick Duo (The Duo's are not yet available on the market, and NO you cannot in any way use existing Memory Sticks)

Still there?

Since there is no audio EQ, and no way to change the earphones to better ones... the sound is just ok. But you can listen to music using the phone's mono speaker! No, there is currently no way to connect the P800 to your sound system.

And BTW, we don't really care how many mobile phones you have lying around your room, even if you are bragging that you are only 16 and have so many phones.

P800 has a STEREO speaker, and I for one find the quality to be absolutely superb. Listening to MP3's really is a joy on this thing, especiall when your using the included stereo headset,very close to cd quality. You can easily have mp3's playing in the background whilst surfing the web etc..

If you have nothing to say, don;t contribute to the forum. I think the P800 is a fantastic phone. It has eliminated the need of a seperate PDA and has replaced a blackberry i used for email.

As for MP3- if the quality of the MP3 you are transferring is good, you can't really tell that it is being played on a handeld phone. Although there is currently no upgrade to the memory stick, I am sure sony will soon give us some expandable memory capabilities. As for the bugs, I think the bugs on teh P800 are relatively small compared to the bugs that were present when the T68 came out.

Is it worth the money..... I think so, but that is my personal opinion. IUf you are looking for a pure MP3 Player however, the IPod may be what you are looking for. I for one think the P800 is good enough

Hope this helps

Listen, this phone SUCKS as an MP3 player. Go get an Apple iPod, you can even get them for that Windous operating system now. 16 mb on the MS Duo vs. about 20,000 mb on the top of the range iPod.

So if you want an MP3 player you won't be satisfied with the P800.

But as a PDA-phone this is the coolest device out there. I really love it, and it's hard to look at my old T68(i) without noticing how bad the screen actually was on that phone. The image on the P800 is crisp and clear even though it can only display about 4000 colours (or something in that area) at the same time.
About the size, yes it's bigger than the T68, and for some people it's too big. But then, this is so much more than a phone that the size just doesn't matter as much as it does with regular cellphones.
I was a little concerned how fast the OS would be. But I am happy to announce that Symbian OS 7 on the P800 runs very fast. I hardly get any loading screens (or bars) and I often run two or three apps at the same time (I like being online on ICQ and MSN with TipicMe when I'm bored).

But as I said, this is NOT a good MP3 player, so you shouldn't buy as an audio player. Go to http://www.apple.com/ipod instead.

Crowing:What kind of fu***d up answer is that? Grow up? FOCUS?
If he likes phones. let him buy phones. Growing up is not withing his control. It comes naturally. Like your dumbass reply.

I recommend you follow this link: http://www.clubsonyericsson.com/products/p800/p800_whitepaper.pdf " TARGET="_blank"> http://www.clubsonyericsson.com/products/p800/p800_whitepaper.pdf It's a acrobat document explaining the functions of the p800. It's as big as the feature list of this phone so be prepared for a wait.
It gives you a fairly good idea of the functions and menu layout of the phone.

Hehe. judging by this thread one should never give away ones age on this forum. Unbelievable really. dissing him like that for his age. You were 16 once too remember.
