I just got one on Voda and you can play any MP3 now as a ring tone, and let me tell you they sound great through the high powered dual speakers as ring tones :-)

I believe Voda used to require DRM MP3, ie. ones they sold.
So it would be worth testing if normal (non-DRM) mp3 work.

To be fair to Voda (for once!) - they've apparently finished the business of stopping you using your own ringtones. There was the option of using mp3 as ringtones but didn't try it (its even in the voda customised manual).

That's what you get when you go Vodafone!
You should find that mp3 ringtones do not work either, Vodadone normally ensures you have to buy ringtones from them.

What a dissapointment!!
Got mine last week - going back this week!
It's very customised for Vodafone (UK).
Right soft key in standby can not be changed from Vodafone Live.
The battery (granted only after first long charge) did not last from West Wales to Hampshire (200 miles) with about 10min worth of WAP surfing and 10min calls.
No ability to read .doc .xls .pdf etc.
The sync with Outlook put all the contacts numbers classified as Other, and the calendar was totally wrong. Having specified to only sync the last 30 days and the next 90, it would state that it was full having synced half of 2003 and put all the notes as tasks under the day it was synced!.
It also deleted some items from my PC Outlook which I am really unimpressed with!
Keypad looked nice to start with, but got really greasy after a few key presses.
Screen res looked good.
The phone would also not sync via the USB cable unless Bluetooth was turned off.
The games were all demos with links to purchase from Vodafone Live.
A very dissapointing phone, now eating humble pie and going back to Nokia!!

It is a a Razr rip-off no doubt about it and as for Moto engineers being outdated well generally they don't get much right but patents and 1sts and smallests they can do. Samsung engineers also had an extra quarter to develop a thinner handset. We'll see how it performs.

SAMSUMG made a great 3G clamshell. Campared to this, the Moto V3x looks like a brick to me. Those people who say it's Razr copy must be moto fanboys. A clamshell is a clamshell, not a copy to me. Otherwise, why don't people say SE copy the candybar of Nokia or Nokia copy the slider or swivel from some Korean phones? Moto haven't gone any slimmer from V3 to V3x. Engineering wise, it's fair cause V3x is a 3G. But hey look! this Z540 is a 3G as well, and it's only 14.9mm thin. Moto engineers are already outdated.

Hey Tom,
I couldnt find it in any online stores, but keep looking. I got mine here in Japan on Vodafone but is SIM locked for about the next few months but as I live here, its no problem. I will get it unlocked so I can take it homewith me eventually but unlocking wont be avalible for a month or so yet. Check out E.Bay then for one.
