Hi,

I was wondering if you all could help me choose a cell phone. Here's my situation.

I use the cell occasionally and would like to have one. It's very important that it has a GOOD mp3 player, as that will be its main use. I already have an mp3 but I'm looking for a double-use device (cell and mp3) so that I don't have to carry two things. I'd like some good memory for the mp3 or at least a device with a memory card available. I'd also like english menus if possible. Any suggestions?

Cheers

It will be more expensive, but try to find a phone that has flash RAM slot so that you are not limited by the built in memory of the phone. Also, make sure that you are able to use ACTUAL mp3 files from your computer. Often, mp3 phones are just phones that allow you to play music that you have to buy from the phone companies phone internet service. That is a crappy deal since the selection is horrendous, the price of using the internet service ever worse, and you are often unable to put on a take off songs from your phone very easily (or it relies on a crappy, Korean-only, synch manager which makes everything a headache).

Thanks for the reply jazblanc77. I primarily want an mp3 with a cell-phone function. Smile Therefore, I'm looking for something that plays multi-format audio like mp3, wma, etc. Any suggestions?
