    hey....i just brought an e398 after much deliberation ......had a nokia3300 b4....only reason for changing my phone was i wanted one with mp3 capabilites and a cam and memory expandability!!!!!........looked at a lotta phone but none fit the bill....but moto did fit perfectly and also there were rave reviews about the phone all over!!!!!!.....so i finally plunged into buying the fone and what do i get the rude shock of my life!!!!!!

    1. had major prob's in my comp detecting the phone (thought it was b'coz of the s/w - upgraded it now!!!)
    2. now i have an option where my comp detects the phone as a drive!!!!- like my 3300 - was very happy with that feature - but when i try and transfer the files - half the files dint copy!!!!!
    3. the files which copied - when i try to play them they sound real choppy!!!!
    4.couple of the files give me a system error
    5.now i connect the headset(which is pathetic!!) that came with the phone and the headset button does not control the mp3 playa like the nokia 3300
    6.the java mp3 playa also is bad coz it does not detect all my mp3 files and it does not even have a equaliser!!!!!!
    7. i had these bunch of .mtf files on my computer and wanted to transfer them on to the phone - mobile explorer does not detect my phone!!!! - transferred the files onto the t-flash - making my computer detect the phone as a drive!!!!.....dint know which folde to copy - copied onto the "mixmedia" folder and also onto the "pictures" folder - and when i check in the - theres nothing!!!!!!!!

    these are just a few of the probs that i discovered!!!!!! n im extremely annoyed!!! - coz the nokia 3300 - even though being basic - was an amazing phone with mp3 capabilites!!!!

    thinkin of getting the phone exchanged!!!!!!!

    It seems like most of your problems are with the software, not the phone itself. But anyways, IMO the ultimate, cheap mp3 phone atm is the Nokia N-Gage original. Bought one and love it

    I believe the E398 has superior speakers as compared to Nokia 3300. I personally prefer the simplicity of the phone as compared to nokia

    Is the phone big or bulky? I was considering one but wasn't sure if it was big or if it can fit on a belt clip and not look like a cops walkie talkie or something.

    Cheers
