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

I have Nokia E70, guaranteed to be bigger than RAZR :P

not as wide though

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.

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

Surely you could buy a cheap adapter from some random Korean site for less than a few quid

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

Some lousy EU directive forced Nokia to tune down their volume levels, so now you can't hear the music.

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

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

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

I'm sure there was some firmware hack for iPods to bump the volume back up

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

you can't really reduce memory usage on 18k px images :)

photoshop does some smart tricks with hard disk
2008-05-30 15127, 2008

so it usually can handle very big images
