Hiyas folks,

I'm thinking of deserting nokia (finally...) and getting me the c702 model once it's released.
I absolutely need a phone that can take a bit of water and shocks.
This is also why I followed the nokia 5xxx toss and drown line, but they have gotten worse and worse.
Each 'new' model had less and less features (thermometer, soundmeter, adjustable snooze, picture count not ascending but reusing old numbers, no more possibility to have built in gps only external, .........) so I'm fed up.

Before I take this model, I have a few questions though, please excuse my ignorance about Sony Ericsson.

Does anyone know about the software of these models or its OS?
Can one install extra programs on it?
Can one set different alarms for an entire week?
What about profiles, are they timed (especially 'offline')?
And is it possible to record phone calls automatically (without an impossibly annoying 'beep' every 5 seconds!)?

@Ralse:

Does anyone know about the software of these models or its OS? Sony Ericsson's A200 Java platform. Similar to an SE K850i or W910i.

Can one install extra programs on it? Yes to an extent. Definitely not as much as say Nokia's S60 platform. Just simple Java applications.

Can one set different alarms for an entire week? It will have 5 alarms that can be set, plus a calendar which you can of course set appointments.

What about profiles, are they timed (especially 'offline')? Nope.

And is it possible to record phone calls automatically (without an impossibly annoying 'beep' every 5 seconds!)? As far as I know, it records phone calls without a beep, but you have to switch it on when you begin the call. Not sure about the beep though.

Thanks for replying.

If it's java, I'm sure that there are enough java programs to cope with the lack of built in features.

Perhaps. But it's probably worth having a good look around before you buy to see whats available.

The only better 'phone' I have found is the Psionteklogix îkon pda phone.
Price ranges from 1500 - 2000 euro and it weights half a kilo, good battery pack though.
Nokia's next toss and drown remains unanounced, if they even have one, can't find any in other brands.
This seems to be the only option.

Btw, I haven't read anywhere about how big memory chips it supports, I'm sure that as it's their own brand, it can go quite high?
Current nokia only supports 2g microsd max.

It will have no problems with an 8GB M2 card. It won't take any other type of card though. It may even support bigger, but they only go up to 8GB at the moment.

You might know this, but the C702 isn't really a rugged phone as you seem to want. It is splash and dust RESISTANT, which definitely does not mean that it is water-proof or dust-proof. It will resist a certain amount, but you definitely couldn't toss and drown the phone. That would f*ck it up!

Heheh I know all about that, but thanks for the warning.
Only exceptional phones such as the Casio g'zone claims it's waterproof, not just water resistant (but it's not available in Yurop : ((( ).
But in most cases, 'water resistant' is an understatement.
With all nokia splash resistant phones I have been able to make and accept phone calls whilst showering, never had any problems. : )
Even after rejecting the older ones because I got a new model, my sister used them untill they were totally broke.
She melted most because she welds a lot n stuff, so the sparks break down the cases untill they finally reach the electronics.
Mostly you can still switch cases though. ; )

8g seems plenty for now, if they release 16g I would go for that though.
