        Well, when I go rollerskating I have my phone with me anyway. It's pretty annoying to skate with pockets full of gadgets.

        my phone is huge, so I'd rather just bring my player when working out

      • Muz
        What phone do you have?
      • 2008-05-30 15114, 2008

      • Wizzcat
        razr v3
      • 2008-05-30 15127, 2008

      • Muz
        Razr's are so gay

        I really should upgrade to something made in this millenium
      • 2008-05-30 15158, 2008

      • srotta
        I have Nokia E70, guaranteed to be bigger than RAZR :P
      • 2008-05-30 15139, 2008

      • Wizzcat
        not as wide though
      • 2008-05-30 15139, 2008

      • srotta
        According to specs they are equally wide :P

        But as I said, I have the phone anyway, since I track my speed and distance with GPS, so it makes sense to use it for music as well.

        I don't use any phones enough to really care, although mine's a nokia (but but but it's pretty :D)

        I disliked nokia phones because they had everything backwards (compared to siemens). that changed a long time ago, but I can't get rid of that feeling :)

        I bought an adaptor and lost it :/
      • 2008-05-30 15125, 2008

      • nikki
        so I thought screw it and bought a dirt cheap mp3 player
      • 2008-05-30 15134, 2008

      • nikki
        cost less than a new adaptor...

        Nokia has managed to create some pretty unbelievably crappy software over the years, but I'm not sure others are that much better.
      • 2008-05-30 15130, 2008

      • Muz
        Surely you could buy a cheap adapter from some random Korean site for less than a few quid
      • 2008-05-30 15158, 2008

      • nikki
        maybe
      • 2008-05-30 15123, 2008

      • nikki
        I can't even use the headphones that came with it because then I can't hear the bloody music
      • 2008-05-30 15145, 2008

      • srotta
        Yeah, that's the biggest problem for me with using the phone.
      • 2008-05-30 15126, 2008

      • srotta
        Some lousy EU directive forced Nokia to tune down their volume levels, so now you can't hear the music.
      • 2008-05-30 15131, 2008

      • nikki
        useless
      • 2008-05-30 15145, 2008

      • Muz
        Didn't the same thing happen to iPods?
      • 2008-05-30 15158, 2008

      • nikki
        did they do that in the headphones then? if I use my own it's much louder
      • 2008-05-30 15158, 2008

      • srotta
        I think so, yeah.
      • 2008-05-30 15159, 2008

      • Muz
        I'm sure there was some firmware hack for iPods to bump the volume back up
      • 2008-05-30 15113, 2008

      • srotta
        nikki: No, the earphones are just crappy in their own right 8)

      • LotR always keeps his music volume to the lowest possible setting, and can hear the music out of his k800i just fine

      • 2008-05-30 15139, 2008
