mabuhay! what's up? ive been looking for p800 games but all i found was doom and some emulator. u guys know where i can find free games (like the games in 7650)? or where i can buy here in manila?

christomas 26 May 2003, 23:30

You can try handango. They have some great games for the P800. There arent really much free stuff out there yet for the P800. Maybe in a few more months 😊

anyone knows wer i can buy a 128mb memory stick? i found one ar greenhills for 8k. anyone knows wer i can found one (locally) for a lower price??

umm, if theres is a club, count me in.... 😊 😃
thanks......

welcome to the club 😊

Ive hear of a few places in manila selling it at 8k and other at 7600 or something like that 😊 I got mine in hk for aorund 7+ also, form shop.brando.hk actually 😊

So 8k is still reasonable, considering the scarcity of the 128 duo 😊

Hello!!! Sad to say I'm the only Filipino here in Cambodia who's using a P800. I just got mine a few days ago and it's really worth owning one. Can somebody give me a hint how much will the set cost in the Philippines including a 64mb memory stick. There's no shop selling 128mb here in Phnom Penh that's why I opted for 64mb. A set here in Cambodia costs US$620 so that would be around Php32,240 @ US$1 = Php52 exchange rate.

Greetings Olive from Cambodia 😊 Well ateh P800 is selling at 35k Pesos without the 64 mb stick 😞 But it has the 16mb stick with it already just like on all the other packages 😊 So 32k is cheap already 😊

Don't text go_p800 you should text go p800 (no underscore inbetween and send to 2951 for Globe PH

hey everybody!

i just got my P800 a week ago, and no regrets. 😃 I've been using a Nokia since 1997, so it's a bit of a challenge to adjust.

Does anyone know of any store in greenhills that sells the 128MB Memory Stick Duo?

Guest 28 May 2003, 16:41

my bad, i meant go p800. =)
how long does it usually take to get activated?
is it normal to have 2 wap accounts? myGlobe and MyGlobe?
coz when i sent go p800 2 weeks ago, they sent me these 2 autosetups. Correct me if im wrong, but isnt MyGlobe for the MMS?

Guest 28 May 2003, 18:12

i found this game for p800 called "Aramith's Quest: The Summoning" at my-symbian.com and it says it was made by ePLDT.com (who i assume are Filipinos). I tried downloading this game at my-symbian.com or ePLDT.com but it wasnt there. any ideas how to get this?

Guest 29 May 2003, 14:25

True 😊 And you have to make another account which you can name myInternet. This account is just the same as your myGlobe account excpet that the address instead of http://www.globe.com.ph/globe.wmlc change it to internet.globe.com.ph, this is the connection you will use for Opera.

ispynal: SE Makati is located at G/F Tuscan Condominium, 114 Herrera St. Legasvi Village.

Guys, do you know where can I buy the original case of P8 here in Manila? I lost mine and I cannot find any store selling the original case. I have already inquired in Semicon.
