Man, congrats with your phone! :) It looks good, not bulky as I can see from specs and functionality is awesome. Great! I'll stick with my SonyEricsson Walkman i810 though. :)

As for headphones connector -- they are expected to include some adapter for it. At least I've got the one with my iPAQ which also uses its own connector...

BTW, how did you manage to get a data connectivity in US? They have very ugly contracts for this stuff -- the thing I'll never get, since I used to pay-as-you-go GPRS back in Ukraine...

mine is a UK contract phone so i was just roaming in the US. Probably cost me a fortune but hey, it's a company phone :)

prices for "normal" downloads (in the home country) are £3 for 10MB i think

Nikos, in your blog you were talking about file managers for mobile devices. I'm not sure if you have tried Resco Explorer

http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/explorer/default.asp
http://www.resco.net/smartphone/explorer/default.asp

Its available both for PocketPC and Smartphones. I've been using the PPC version for almost 2 years now. Its has lot of features when compared to the original File Explorer that comes with the device. It does not support dual panes though. Are you thinking of creating something on this line?

yes something like this. In these devices the screen is always the problem so it will be hard to have usable dual panes, perhaps tabs

Actually I'm using Resco Explorer on my iPAQ. If I use more than 1% of its functionality -- that'd be a miracle... :?
