Can anyone comment about the keypad? Is it easy to compose text messages for example? I like the look of this phone so far, but worry about the buttons - how they're all right next to each other, rather than being alone in their own space (like the GX15 for example, my current phone).

A very good mobile phone but it has 2 disadvantages .1) it can receive java files (applications and games) using the Bluetooth and 2) the sound files (midi, mmf, mp3) can’t be used as ring tones if they are stored in the Micro SD card

@ Someone who knows,

thankyou, that's what I meant. The phone itself cannot be resold to another provider, or sold "unbranded". Vodafone has it's seal on it.

Well it's not quite like that. The handsets are designed with Vodafone in mind and with input from them as to what they want to fill in certain areas of their portfolio. So effectively Sharp develop specifically for Voda.

Yea, I reckon, SHARP make this phone... then they go to Vodafone and say "Do you want to buy the line of 550SH with your logo on it or not?" If they say yes then it all goes through and if the say no then they will sell it without their branding like other SHARP phones. Vodafone dont have time to sit down and design phones.. Come on

Skater42,

You are wrong. Vodafone does not design the Sharp handsets. They are designed, developed and manufactured by Sharp but sold exclusively to Vodafone.

@ PAUL

dood your a funny man :P

You have no idea what you are talking about, over-exagerating facts and have probably never been able to use Vodafone in the first place.

Verizon Wireless is owned by 45% through Vodafone. The other 55% belong to Verizon Communications.


Pot calling the cattle black
============================

How many US companies draw their revenues from other countries? Thank you.

T-Mobile is owned by Deutsche Telekom, you are correct.


Vodafone & Sharp
================

Vodafone is by far the largest Mobile Operator, sheer volume making China mobile #1. Vodafone is operating in 41 countries and it's fair pricing, great handsets and a good amount of services make it easily the most competetive.

Branding is no Scamming, you wouldn't call BMW a scammer only because they have their branding all over their own cars?
Subsidies make handsets so cheap, and you only have to be willing to carry the sponsors name. Like Formula One cars, very colorful...indeed.

Most SHARP handsets are owned by Vodafone, making Vodafone the "designer" and SHARP the manufacturer. Do I seem to repeat myself?

Nokia, SE & Co. just try to get more revenue by subsidising their handsets. Not everyone can afford a $999 handset.

I haven't had much trouble with Vodafone Customer Service and find that you have the best roaming agreements through Vodafone.

Oh and everyones thinks , VERIZON WIRELESS, is such a scam because it is part of local Verizon company. Ehhhhh.....

NO, IT ISN'T (only by 20% yes). By 80% it is part of Vodafones, and I don't believe that the world's giant such as Vodafone can't control $$$$$scam of Verizon.

DEUTCHE TELEKOM can 100% control thei american subsidary T-Mobile USA, and Vodafone can't control Verizon? HELL NO.
VODAFONE IS SIMLY THE PARENT SCAM OR VERIZON SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!

I don't know very well about Vodafone, but I do know very well about Verizon Wireless which is 80% controled by Vodafone, and along with Cingular wireless is rated to be the most SCAMEST company in the U.S.!!!!!
(Bunch of $$$$ J...ISH SCAM CON. SPECIALISTS in Verizon and in Cingular)

VERIZON WIRELESS likes doing the same things like Vodafone does:
-Locking their phones and features with hudreeds of locks and passwords! ($$$$$tones of rip off)
-Branding themselves like they are the kings of the earth
-Providing the most horrible costumer service
