Orange SPV C500/iMate SP3 Smartphone

[Evrae]

I have had mine for a good couple of weeks now and I love it. It feels great to hold and operates much better than I thought it would (Windows) as I have found it stable and less bug ridden than Nokia/SE phones. The added bonus has got to be MSN, its brilliant to be able to interact with people as if you were still on your pc. The only thing that seems lacking is the lack of FREE content, everywhere I go it is all chargeable. If some kind soul knows of anywhere, please dont hesitate to let me know. The microsoft theme creator is ok but I found a better one Windows Mobile Theme Maker (http://www.ruttensoft.com/) This is also NOT free but not too dear and a nice bit of software. Enjoy!

Hi

Yes I would agree its a nice handset, I have the SP3i and have no complaints. anyway I came across a site with some nice themes, as well as a theme changer for the phone, visit (http://homepages.inspire.net.nz/~g*****/) for more details, also the author also has a nifty start menu customiser Abstract Start (http://homepages.inspire.net.nz/~g*****/AbstractStart/) which may be of interest :)

Also, you may want get Agile Messenger (http://agilemobile.com) which not only has msn, but 3 other messengers built in as well as the Push to talk capabilities that allowing walkie talkie like communication.

I am looking into the SP3 and its cousin the Motorola MPx220.
How is it surfing the net without WI-FI? :confused:

Thanks

I have been using my Orange contract sim card to browse internet using GPRS and had no problem.
