Hi all,
I just got this phone recently, but I can't seem to locate any reminder function which will activate the alarm when the time set arrives. Previously i was using the Siemens S65, and the "tasks" function could act as a timely reminder. But the CL71 doesn't seem to have this. Can anyone please enlighten me on which function can i use to substitute for the tasks function?
Thank you so much

Yes, the camera and display excellent, sound of FM stereo radio is good enough.
But other features are not really good.
The price is too expensive with it's features, it's better choose Siemens S75 although the model shape is bad, but good in features.

The plus value for this phone is excellent display, FM radio, Bluetooth connection, and MP3.
But the sound from FM radio cannot trnasfer to Speaker phone, it's only can hear by headset. FM radio in Nokia can hear by Speaker phone.

And the minus value is, the cable data that include in Purchasing Pack is not working properly.

I baught this phone 5 days ago... and found out that its not worth the price. the themes are not customizable(till now).. and there is no file manager. i tried some java games and apps... none of them seem to work...mp3 playback is poor....however, the camera is quite nice...
If u r reading this prior to buying, skip this phone!!

Yes, we can send/receive files via bluetooth. To receive files, go to tools menu, select bluetooth and turn on, then you can receive files. To send one is simpler, select the files, choose send, by bluetooth. It will take a while to find the receiver device and often gives you a password for the receiver to open the file/s. I think it's some protection for virus etc.

Just got one lastnite, too early to judge the whole details. So far got no complain at all, all features work perfect, good quality of pics and sound. NO PROBLEM on the battery, i charged lastnite, took a lot of pics, several videos, some calls in and out, and FM Radio almost all time, still 2 bars now after 24 hours. This cellphone is cool...
