> In reply to [deleted post]Well, i haven't tried the music videos yet, haven't bought a memory card for it ksi, unfortunately, i didn't get one when i bought the phone (ASAR!). And YOU CAN TURN OFF THE KEYPAD TONE, just go on the settings menu and then RINGSTYLE menu, then you can change it dun sa RINGSTYLE DETAIL. For example, I chose the LOUD RING style, magkakaron dun nang option na LOUD RING DETAIL, click on it and then you can turn off the keypad tone or change the volume of it. Un... hope that helps, I'm not really good with explaining stuff.

> In reply to vkg @ 2008-08-23 15:38 from 2@4iSure you can make playlists...just create subfolders inside the "Music" folder and "play" them.

The shuffle mode is also great.

I think is a very good phone...autonomy is good for me.

> In reply to ric @ 2008-08-19 12:06 from u14KBattery talktime is around 2.5 to 3 hours, with about 3-4 sms during the day. Somewhat disappointing considering claim by company of 9 hours, also with 910 mAH battery and small screen. The speed dial system is also unfriendly. The user manual is not supplied in the box, had to download it from website. It gives a higer SAR value than getting started guide provided in the box.There is no option of making Playlist in the Music Player, though the User manual downloaded from site mentions it. Motorola should upgrade the manual and also provide it in box. Having been a Nokia and Sony Ericsson user, I think I should have stuck to them.

> In reply to Maurice @ 2008-06-06 07:19 from ka8VI send an email to motorola the other day i regards to that question and here is their response...

Dear Ed,

Thank you for your e-mail dated 20 August 2008.

The Motorola W230 does not support use as a modem for internet connectivity. You are able to use the handset to connect to WAP(Wireless Application Protocol) and browse WAP sites using the pre loaded WAP browser on the handset which requires GPRS connection

Should you need further assistance, please feel free to e-mail us again. Alternatively you can also contact our Customer Service number at 1800 1651 0415 (reachable within Philippines).

Yours sincerely
Ilham
