MPx200/220 Questions.

[Krang]

Basically, I read the review of the MPx200, and i really like the sounds of it, however reading from threads here people seem to hate the phone...

The 220 sounds more promising, just wondering how reliable these rumors are....

Also, If the Mpx200 can handle mpeg format, whats the largest memory card you could put in it?

If it had a big enough memory card, does that mean you could for example, watch an episode of Futurama on the phone?

What sort of policy do UK companies have on trade-in's ? If i were to buy an MPx200 on contract, would i be able to get it upgraded to the MPx220 relativly cheaply? (Am i right in thinking most phone contracts are min. of 12 months)

Any Feedback much appreciated.

I have the phone and I like it for the most part. One thing that really bothers me is battery life. There are just two words to describe that "It sucks!" Otherwise, the UI is awesome. I love the fact that I could browse the web (real http I mean)! I can't wait until the MPx220 comes out. From what I hear, it has class one bluetooth, ingt camera, quad band ant, exp mini SD up to 1GB and it looks awesome. Hopefully battery life is improved with this model.

The 200 could handle up to a 512MB SD/MMC card.

Does anyone know where to get some cheap ringtones?
All the websites I've looked at charge £4.50! I'm not that desperate to have a cool ringtone. Not that panpipes/organ music can be really called cool...

I only just got my phone today - it's the last time I'll buy a phone
off the internet...

First impressions are quite good though, but reading the manual may make things a bit easy - I only accidently found out pressing the 0/+ button cycles through the T9 words...

B]
are you talking about polyphone or monophonic ringtones?
now i know you may already know this,
but...
if it's polyphonic, you can just download midis or wavs off the internet for free. and you can get a bunch off the se website... also for free.

but 4.50 is a ripoff for just a ringtone! sheesh...
but i'm sure you could find another webpage that has cheaper prices. or even check for service provider's wap site...they may have some available for download for a cheaper price (hopefully). or do a search on wap for free ringtones...you may be able to find some. i believe that one of the forum users have a wap site that offers free ringtones.
hope this helped. :)

Great thanks.

Further note on the MPx200 - my flatmate who works for Vodafone said the main reason why clamshells still have an
external aerial is because without it they can't get a strong enough signal - that was after I told him my phone had already dropped a call twice...I still like the phone though...

Mundets, Which se site are you talking about - I just had a look
at the UK one but couldn't see anything for free...

Maybe I'm not looking hard enough...
