Right, i've just decided 3G in general is a bit of a waste now I have a PSP, and my 3G contract finished next month anyway.

Let's face facts, the D500 is almost too sexy not to get.

I've looked around and i'm going to pay for it (handset only). I'll probably go to ebay, but any help on good sites to buy handset only would be cool.

As would any other mobile ideas, as i'm not too, ermm rigid, yet.

I got the K700i only had it 2 months and I now want the D500 as well... it looks great and many people I've seen about have them now

I must have an impulsive disorder.

It's ordered!!

Haven't had a brand new phone in ages (normally use ebay), and I won't have to be on 3g or get a new contract. I'm so happy!

What network / tarrif?

Nope, sold my A1000 for £150, so I bought this phone, as I have a contract I want to use up, then move to PAYG.

I'll be on T-Mobile for the next few months.

Payed just over £200 for the phone, new.

I have the D500 and it is a fab phone, it also has a great camera on it, some of the pics I have taken look great.

I have had a few problems with little things but nothing major

I have a D500....its the best phone in the World in my opinion! You will love the phone! its so hard not to!

Am I too enthusiastic?

Nope, I like enthusiasm.

Could have had the 'special edition' silver one for £20 more ( ) but I think it looks a lot nicer in black.

How good is the screen and movie/clip playback then??

Crystal Clear Photos...And a very good Video playback

I too have a D500 the cameras great as is video...however the bluetooth connectivity is utter shite..its unable to hold a connection for more than 2 mins..I'm on my second one... had the first replaced for this reason although this ones a bit better its still very poor

Other than that though great phone

So is the USB or the dongle best to use for transfering pics/vids from phone to computer?

And anyone know of where to get one cheap but not the foreign sellers on E-bay?

Ebuyer sell the D500 sim free for £233.97 brand new.

Great Phone, Stunning looks, nice size, easy to follow menus. 10/10

Is it just me? When i take a photo with the camera in 1.3 megapixel mode, i cannot send that photo by mms.

Thats funny, i sit with mine connected to BT all day sometimes to my computer so i can send txt msgs and it never drops a connection, same goes for my BT headset when i am driving...

But yes its a fabulous phone with only one niggle... as far as i am aware you cant use your own "alert" tone for say incoming txt msgs - but can use mp3's for ringers.... but such a brilliant bit of engineering, bought mine unlocked for £249.00 and bought an online O2 sim deal only, 800 cross network minutes and 2000 txts a month for £45.00.... one happy bunny here

Spangles

The reason for that is the size of the file, mms is limited partly cause the other person you are sending to might not be able to display the pic.

Bluetooth works a treat for me no dropped connections at all.

Maybe its just me then

Like I said I'm on my second one because the bluetooth was so poor on my first..It seems a bit better on the second but stilll entirely unsatisfactory..(I like the phone other than this)

I'm confident that its not a problem with my other Bluetooth kit as a) The D500 communicates badly with 3 different BT items and b) my V3 holds a connection with the same headsets perfectly...

Maybe I'll see about getting a third D500 (bad batch maybe)
