Yeah Tiran,
I expected it to act like a storage device too, but it seems that this is a really Mac-unfriendly device despite SE's declared devotion to the Mac-platform at the NY MacWorld last year.
How do you transfer files to your P800? I can't get Bluetooth working with it, I can only send stuff from the P800 to the Mac, not the other way around.

Yes and no. The cable on the cradle is USB. But the port on the phone is serial just like the one on T68i. It can't handle USB 2.0 speeds. It can't even handle USB 1.1 speeds.
So a Bluetooth filetransfer is the fastest way?

Uhm. Haven't done anything special. As long as the phone is a favorite in the Bluetooth File Exchange app, or it's discoverable, it should work.
@ktd
Or mount the MemoryStick via a card reader of some kind. Might be the fastest really. And the phone won't try to store it all internally until it get's the whole file down (I think that's what it does when getting a file on Bluetooth)

I tested filetransfer via Bluetooth:
10 MB took 9 minutes
so avg 54 seconds per MB!
A simple calculation:
128 MB of MP3 =
54*128/60=
115 minutes to fully load a memory stick!
I didn't try via the cradle, maybe someone have the times for that!

@coramoor, yes it looks like the t68i would fit in the cradle connection, it looks identical to the MCA 20 connection.
BTW i download via BT & i dont think it`s slow.
If people are going to buy p8, please don`t believe everything you read on here as i`ve seen some rubbish stuff based purely on heresay, most factual info is available on SE website, & people who ACTUALLY OWN this phone allways seem to praise it`s great features like me, i think some negative comments are printed by people who are frustrated by not owning one yet. but how can they judge something they have not used.

Iv hade my P800 for 4 weeks now. Got one the day they released them in Sweden and I thinks it is a great phone/PDA BUT SE have done a couple of serious misstakes with it. Some som simple that I dont know what they been thinking about. Probobly nothing... Anyway, I couldent recomend another phone to anyone so dont come and say that we only complains.
