It lack of features. Selecting of items for copying and cutting such as images, mp3s, text messages, etc. are not improved. Selecting are processed one by one. It's not easy to use. And the GPRS in the Philippines cannot be used in Toshiba G500. It's very poor. I hope Toshiba company will improve this given problems.

Drop call, switch to silent profile after incoming call, noisy---Toshiba service center said it has good voice pickup. Other problems due to Microsoft, the hardware is OK.

Never use Toshiba again.

After one year use of G500, I switch to Nokia E52. My last phone, Ericsson T610, I used it for 3 years until the shell broken down.

G500 has tons advanced functions, none of them work.

1. The profile can switch to silent if the calendar is marked busy. It works, but not switch back after meeting. I disabled this function, it switch to silent profile after each incoming call. So, I have to set the silent profile same as normal profile. Before meeting, I have to modify the normal profile to disable ringer sound. Very annoying.

2. Received lots of complain about voice quality. G500 picks lots of background voice. T610 is better than this high tech. phone.

3. I set the wifi, if I entered wrong key, it hard reset the phone.

4. Usually drop call after one ring.

I deliver this phone to toshiba serive center. In Hong Kong, Toshiba is selling through Chevalier. The service lady has very good manner.

"Soory for lots of background noise. This means this phone has very good reception. For the other problems, they are not a matter of Toshiba. This is due to Microsoft Windows problem. So, we have noway to solve it. I can try to reset." Then, hundred times of sorry.

Not thing improved after reseting.

Toshiba never takes responsibility of what it sold.

@SHARMA - Leave the useless Pocket Media Player... Install the freeware TCPMP (Google this abbreviation) or the commercial version of the same program named CorePlayer. Both support ALL kids of AVI, MP3 and OGG formats + straming flash video (YouTube, MetaCafe, etc.). The only difference is that TCPMP supports subtitles via 3rd party plug-ins, while the CorePlayer does not.
