I bought mine yesterday and am very happy with it, but having had a SE phone for the last 3 years or so (T68i, T610, Z600) i have a few questions.
Is there a editor to create skins? The phone comes with four installed, but i don't like any one of them.
Is there a way to send over the complete phonebook? I've tried bluetooth and IrDA and they don't work.
Anyone have a solution?
Thanks

@Sjemboll - I couldn't copy whole phone book from my T68i to the D500, but you can sent individual contacts. The other option is to sync to outlook using Easystudio, which you can download hear, but be warned its a bit over 100mb!

After a nice delay. CPW head office have told me I will recieve my D500 on Tuesday morning
Has anybody done a comparison in pictures between the S700i and the D500 ? I already have an S700i and the pics are good but can be a little blurry sometimes.

I have a Samsung E800 and everytime I upload a wallpaper, there is a white border around the picture.
Does the D500 also show a border around the picture or is the picture filled right to the edge of the screen?
Thanks

Kinda depends on the size of the picture. The pre installed pics fill the screen on my D500 (using the Ferrit pic atm). I transferred a pic across from my S700 and it has a border around it when viewed. Theres no image editor or application cd that comes with the phone but if you go to the Samsung website and look at the D500 and select applications or downloads (cant remember what its actually called) you can download an image editor to sort your pictures out. Might work with the E800 as well
A friend has got the E800 which I was very tempted to buy until I realised it did'nt have bluetooth. Theres also a cable available so that you can transfer pic/photos from you E700/E800 to your pc.

Rookwise, I have the editor software for the E800 and even I set it to fill the whole screen, when I transfer to file to the phone, the phone resizes the picture to leave a border. Its a shame its the same with the D500. (I am talking about standard wallpapers available for free on websites).
Thanks for looking.

On the colour discussion, I'm with Orange and have just renewed my contract with an upgrade handset. I opted for the D600 (Currently have P900 which I'm keeping) as it is compact and ideal for normal day use at work, pub etc.
Anyway, I fancy the black one, but have heard that Orange are supplying the silver one? Any one enlighten me?
Thanx
PS Orange says they are out of stock at present, so I have no idea when it'll arrive.

Hi Orange are all out apart from the few in retail stores. They only do the grey/silver one, not the black which is only on O2/voda or sim free of course.
Good luck getting one. I have one and they are the best small compact phone by far!
