I don't know how to use the remote control app. There's a few sub categories in the remote control section, Presentation, Media Player and Desktop. I've not looked into it yet, maybe later.

Apparently a site has got their hands on a version of the K750 with CCD:

1. It could be fake and 2. If it's real then the pics are so small it's hard to tell the difference in the comparison pics.

There's also some info about another headphone set:

3.5mm jack included, could be ideal.

Just got one of these myself last week. Review's spot-on. It's funny how people tend to be either Nokia or Sony/Er users - a bit like ATi/Nvidia or AMD/Intel. I'm Sony all the way, but the wife is definitely a Nokia fanboy. I don't bother with the supplied software - Float's Mobile Agent is about a million times better. :cool:

That's what I'm trying to get working now. From what I can gather, with the FMA software, when the scripts are installed (which I have now) it should appear under Connectivity -> Accessories. There I'll find controls for stuff like iTunes, Winamp, WMP, MPC the lot. Loads. Thing is it's apparently broken on the K750 so the devs are getting it to work now.

That's the only thing I miss, although I never found any decent BT Symbian remote control software for windows I had Salling Clicker for OS X and that was quality. This can offer something similar once it's "unbroken" :D

I used to have an awesome bluetooth Symbian remote app for Windows when I was back in Canada, but I can't for the life of me remember what it was. I didn't back it up or bring it with me when I came to China because I have no bluetooth here on this PC. If I remember what it was or find it, I'll post it here for you and you can compare. The FMA software does sound awesome though. I hope they fix it for you soon.

dont know if it was mentioned earlier but this phone is nothing compared to new Nokia's comming out soon like the N Series for example

586051682[/snapback]

Well, that's a matter of opinion. The 3 N series they announced were mixed.

The N90 has a few nice features, nice high res screen and 2MP camera with a carl zeiss lens. But it's absolutely ****ing huge, so I'd rule that out.

The N91 is the one with the 4GB HD but it's got the same old res screen as all other S60 phones like the 7610 (less then the K750i) and apart from that it's the same as any other S60 phone, except it's pretty ugly with tiny buttons.

The N70 looks nicest to me, still a little on the chunky side, same res as old S60 phones, 2MP camera and there's not really anything of note.

I just fail to see how thye blow it away personally.

ill post photos when i get my phone i think o2 online get stock on the 20th if so ill have this done by the end of the month

When I rang up, the guy said the order comes through on the 20th, so he'll put my order through on the 21st.

I think you should get it whenever the person you spoke to orders it. I think they just add your order to their diaries and order when that date comes round. I don't think their's an actual "list" as such.

But it's not like their gonna run out. If it's taking 3 weeks to get them in, they must of ordered a fair few phones. Enough to cope with the amount of people who have pre-ordered and for the rest of the expected demand for it.

Hi,

I have just purchased a 750I - and have still got my 700I - I wish to transfer my txt messages from the old handset to the new one...

Any one know how I could go about this?

Oh yeah - K750i is a wicked phone - got it the day it came out in UK, sim free; works a charm and I have no gripes about the handset at all. Good review though..

Use a program called Float's Mobile Agent.

You should be able to back everything up on it... then transfer it onto your new phone.

I know you just plug the K700 in a sync the inbox etc, and that will copy all of the msgs + phonebook to your PC. But I'm not to sure about how you can transfer it onto you K750. I'm sure it can be done... I just don't know how!

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By Max Norris · Posted

      Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
