it is great phone.
if you want to turn on the speaker the easy way to do is,hold the talk button (green one) for few seconds and speaker will be one.
enjoy

If you want to throw your money and take nothing ,then buy this device.
Every one buy this device is complaining about the joystick because it doesnot work (after you buy it,it will take 2 or 3 days untill the joystick stop working).
I mean it i will not use this device even if it is for free.

I would like to assure all wanna-be SP3I users that this cellphone is of high quality and class. I've been using it for the past 5 months and its performance and style superb. Picture quality and sound is excellent, the weight is not stressing, the detailing of its decor is classical and romantic. Everywhere I go in South Africa be it parties and meetings, they envy this phone!!! So, if you have the Rands, Dollars and Yen to spend on a phone, go for SP3I, Yu wont regret it!!

the keys are not as bad as i thought they would be, they are actually holding up well. the joystick is stupid and very fragile, i already broke it once and replacing it is not covered by the warranty ($20). 2 things i find really annoying about the phone: 1 you cannot send or recieve business cards via SMS. 2 and it freezed often. i think it has too many things for a phone.

Ive not had any of the problems encountered on this site. Maybe its the way you are handling your phones!

Design is ok. Does what i need it to like call people and sent texts. Email is easy to use and set up. MSN messenger works fine and WMP10 works very well.

Syncs well with WMP on PC and also Outlook. I have also built my own program to redesign the interface and it all works a treat.

My paint hasn't chipped, nor has the screen cracked, the joystick broken or anything else. I reccomend it.

This phone is - ABSOLUTELY SHOCKING.

The fact that the paint plakes off the keyboard within a week is outrageous. The joystick is a nightmare too. Beware also, when using Internet explorer, be sure to end task, through the task manager function, otherwsie you will end up with a 24/7 Inet bill for the month.. I did and it was v nasty. Fragile phone too.. with regard to screen and the devide - comonly creeking and feeling like cheap shite.

Anyway.. back to the arena for a new fandangled mobilous stylous.

As for the

I read Khalid's reply to Adriaan's inquiry regarding sending information via Bluetooth. As I am a new user of SP3i, is it possible to send photos via IR? and where to obtain Smart Explorer.

Many thanks in advance.

I love it! I really like the mobile phone keyboard rather than the PDA 2k slide out one.
My only issue is that the Internet browser (IE) does not accept sites that use frames. Does anyone know how to fix that?
Other than this... functionality is excellent for me :)
