Hi everyone,
My long wait is almost over...I shall soon have a K700.

Now. I lost my beloved T310 some weeks ago and this pushed me to save or the K700 even more.

Thing is...I want to protect my investment by getting some sturdy but trendy accessories.

I need a good string that won't snap off and nice case that doesn't "uglify" the phone and a very small, durable and trendy bluetooth headset. I must say...the SE's are a little big and I am not particularly big on them. I want another company...but not a mobile company! It's a sin to use a Motorola headset on my beloved K700i! Surely other non-phone brands have nice ones too...

Please help me out. The links to where online I can buy them would be nice. So to round up what I seek...

+Strap
+Bluetooth headset
+Case
+Syncstation or a good cable so I can update the firmware immediately

I would recommend you to buy a bluetooth dongle.. It's cheap aprox 15 $, and it's a great gadget for your computer..

I always leaves my bluetooth turned on, so if i forget my phone downstairs. I can connect to it through the bluetooth, and also answer calls through the pc headset..

But buy one with 100 meter range. it's only a few dollars more..

Hi all,

I just got my K700i too. I am wondering where can I get the new firmware like all of you mentioned in the message? Thanks

I had T600 and I used the software XTNDConnect (come with the package CD) to sync the Outlook data. I use Bluetooth to do that and it's fine.

I realized that K700 has another sync software called SyncStation. Does anyone use this? Which software (XTNDConnect vs SyncStation) is better?

Thanks again

For Bluetooth Headset I would consider Nextlink Bluespoon AX. www.blue-spoon.com It is stylish and light weight and comfortable to wear. Although the price would be a bit stiff. I paid £60 for mine but it's a good investment!

Fot the case I would recommend the Active Case IAC-25 http://www.sonyericsson.com/s[....]1_1&zone=pp&lm=pp4_1&pid=10146
You will never drop your phone after using it!

jaguy,

you can fit a strap, you have to attach it by taking the battery cover off as it is located at the bottom end of the phone just above the charger cover.

@benf, sorry dude but the link doesn't seem to be working and I can't find it with a quick search on google, perhaps you can re-post the link ?

Thanks

From my own experience I can tell you that XTNDConnect is better. I had couple of promblems with SyncStation+Outloook 2003+k700i, but never had with XTNDConnect + I can still keep synchronized my old Sony/// or /// phones.
