That is not strange, because not every PC and or laptop has a bluetooth transceiver so adding a bluetooth option in the PC suite would not make sense as most people don't yet have it on their PC.

Noura the phone is of good quality. Its really nice.

Mohammed: It could be that your memory card is broken. Or its of a slow type and of an inferior brand.

About the bluetooth, all mono and stereo headsets work with the phone perfectly.

This phone have handsfree feature.

You can simply reject a call when it is closed by just ignoring it. Don't just pick it up. Don't attend to it.

Saxo email me on un112@msn.com about your problem.

The software has some conflicts with microsofts licensing but do not worry, it is 100% safe to use.

You are in risk the cellphone WONT read a 4gb microSD, 2gb will read

Putting a 2gb (beyond said) card, will slow your cellphone's speed, and when accessing the Card's data, it will be really slow (compared to the recomended 1gb card)

Alcatel ISNT lying, they are just suggesting you, a card that will accept the cellphone (2gb cards are in risk they wont be read by cellphone, or work too slow in it)

What's the "real" maximum memory card capacity for this model?

I know this is a repeated question, but please read on...

I've 1GB memory card, and I was told that this is the maximum this model can hold. But, after reading other users' comments about installing 2GB cards, I decided to contact Alcatel.

They said, It's 1GB. I told them; but others have 2GB, and I gave them a link to this site, which states that 2GB memory cards are working fine with this model. They replied; The maximum "official" memory card is "still" 1GB.

My questions are:
- If 1GB is the maximum, and 2GB is working fine, does this mean I can install cards beyond the maximum capacity, say, 4GB?
- If I installed a memory card beyond the maximum capacity, do I risk corrupting/losing data? Slowing down/hanging my device?
- If 1GB isn't the maximum, why Alcatel is lying about it?
