You have to retype the damn whole word again! I couldn't believe how crap this was when I first saw it.. I know I suck at writing texts, but after 3 yrs of having this phone, I still make the same mistakes... Let me know if you've got that same problem with yours....

I know there is a direct option to copy from SIM to Phone but not the other way round. Can anyone tell me a workaround of copying all my contacts from phone onto the SIM card?

Reasons for buying it. * Good screen. Last phone i had had a dim screen. * PDA/Calendar function. I have a lousy memory, I used my last phones pda extensively * mp3. I travel by public transport and this helps to pass the time. * I don't own a watch, I don't see the point when you have a mobile phone. Biggest dissapoinments with the phone. * PDA/Calendar function. This function is shocking, underdone, so bad don't use it. Everytime I did use i missed how much better my last phone was at this. * mp3. Not too bad by itself, but you cannot do anything else at all when you use any function, eg, you can't listen to music and txt at the same time. This is pathetic.
