I just got sprint PCS with a snayo SPC-5500. I love it. I have comments
and many questions
================================================== ==========================

COMMENTS (Sprint PCS and Sanyo Phone)
Sprint PCS
-too many accounts for PCS on the web site. I go online and have
accounts for voice mail, text messaging, games, e-mail and so on. Each with
different passwords and many areas on the web site. Too confusing. They
need to centralize them to 1 account and 1 web page.
-sometimes tough or slow to connect to internet web pages.
-would like to triangulate a positon for GPS. WOuld like tosee a map of
where I am at and where i am going.
-Web acess is too confusing. Too many links and menus and sub menus.
-How about a manual that explains what is going on? It was sooooo
basic. I have had to call costomer service 50 times and keep asking
questions.
---------------------
Sanyo Phone
-Calendar: I work freelance so I set up the calendar's holidays(red)
for the days I work. That way I can see all the days of the month I work in
red. it'd be nice to assign tasks (like work, school, football practice) to
different colors in the calendar. Would like to see the appointments at the
bottom of the page on the monthly calendar instead of always having to go
into the days.
-Phone book: sweet. WOuld like the ability to set up different phone
books(work, home, bills. I start the contacts out with a number(0-9) as a
sorting tool. That way all of my work numbers are together and all of my
family numbers are toegther and such.
-Calculator: Useless.
-I would like a
LCD at the top of the phone with the time and date. My
beeper had this so I never wore a watch.
-The picture mail stuff is nice/voice memo is nice and text messaging is
nice. Throw this all in with a calendar and I wonder how I ever got along
without it.
-Leather case. Nice. I got one from the sprint store. It has bubbles
on the plastic above the
lcd. Can't seem to get them out sothey distory
pixels here and there.
-mini
LCD on front should have large time and in color. Useless as it
is especially with leather case.
-Would be nice to use as a garage door opener or a remote for a TV set.
-Would like a larger screen and full keypad. maybe have 3 screens(2
slide out) and 3 parts to the keypad(2 slide out from underneath). I know
ATT has a phone that pulls out to a full keyboard.
-Would like the date to be at the top of every screen. Would like the
top of the screen to change colors depending on what you are doing(red on
the internet, blue on games and such)
-firmware upgradable would be nice
-A few more web keys: 1 for home page, 1 for erase, and so forth.
-download MP3s
-How about a memo area so I can write notes? an expanded to do list is
really what I'm saying.
-How about a way to record video with the case closed and no
LCD? a spy
phone so to speak.

QUESTIONS
-Were's the FAQ? and do I need to start one up for sprint PCS?
-Pictures
What's the resolution on pictures? How do you download. Can you send
to the phone from an e-mail account? I have pictures on my pc(digital
camera) and want to put in my phone.
-Ringers
-How do I download and install. Can they be e-mailed to the phone.
What format are they? How large are they? Can MP3s be converted over.
-Games
-How do I get games(free) into the phone?
-Size limits. What are the size limits of phone or downloads? I tested it
out and anything over 12.8K will not get sent to my phone from an e-mail
account and any attachments are not transeferred(including pictures)
-What PC software is there? I know futuredial has some, but is there more?
Can I use my phone with my home PC? It'd be nice to get rid of my home
phone and just use sprint PCS to connect to the internet as a modem. I
heard it's more expensive.
WHERE"S THE FAQ???????????
