Hi!
I've just got an SPC C500 as an upgrade from Orange, and I've got a few questions.

How do you close a program? Hitting 'Home', 'Back' or 'End' just seems to leave it running in the background - presumably taking up RAM?
Is there any way to edit the 'quick list' that comes up when I hold down the 'home' key? And do the 5 icons on the main screen have to be recently used? Can I add 'permanent' apps to it?
What's the easiest way to send a picture I've just take via bluetooth? I've installed Smart Explorer, but it seems a bit of a slow and clunky method. Plus it 'fails' most of the time - it says something like 'can't read file', and it disables bluetooth.

And lastly - any 'must have' apps?

Cheers

I have the E200, you can close programs by going to your task manager, just as you would on a PC. And end processes.

I use Smart Explorer myself, it's a very good explorer, and i've never had any problems with it, just took a while to find my way about in it! I use smart explorer for everything, so i can just click on a photo file, and menu/send then choose which way i want to send it. Have a look on the yahoogroups.com listings for your model of phone, and you'll find lots of software.

Thanks

I think it was the option on the bluetooth transfer screen, to speed up the transfer that caused it to fail. It now transfers at around 1-2k/sec - it was 6k/sec with the box checked. Although I can send files between my two computers, and my old 6600 at 15/16k/sec. Strange.
