Yes you shoud get it. Great phone. Mine cost HK$2,700 (US$348) in Hong Kong. That included a 16mb multi media card. You can listen to MP3s but you need to get additional software for that. Since the phone is only mono the sound quality is not good. Why would you want to watch movies on your phone?

yeah get one 3650, you can watch mvies. about the mp3 yes you can play mp3, here in manila it's about 500 to 600$. 8) the price of 3650.

[quote="The Party Boy"]yeah get one 3650, cannot wacth mvies,only clips. about the mp3 yes you can play mp3, here in manila it's about 500 to 600$. 8) the price of 3650.[/quote]

Yes, actually you can watch movies on the nokia 3650, you have to encode them first to be able to play on the phone. Using Helix producer. this phone is by far the best phone i have ever owned. The features are endless and it doubles as a phone too... :P

but anyway, keep browsing the forum, you will find all the answers to your questions using the search utility on this forum.

thanks man for the info 😊

yeah! Get a 3650... it can do everything you asked.

don't also worry or be intimidated about the keypad.....you'll get used to it!......

yeah arvin1x is right bro, get 3650 then register here 8)

Great phone-entertainment-business-gadget!

1. Good video quality - sound is not that great. Play it with VideoRecorder or RealOne - both preinstalled. The PC Suite will convert your MPG videos into 3GP format (about 15 times smaller) during the transfer to the phone. Record your own videos with sound with VideoRecorder (about 12 seconds) or download and install ETICamcorderPro (Free) for unlimited video recording (the only limit is your MMC card - I suggest 128MB).

2. MP3s - Yes, you can play them. However, the sound quality is not very good. There is no stereo headphones for Nokia 3650 and no stereo sound. The PC Suite that comes free with your phone will communicate between your PC and the phone. If you copy MP3 file to your phone, the built-in converter will create and transfer a 1/2 size small WAV file to your phone that you can play via Recorder (pre-installed in EXTRA folder) or set it as ringtone in Profiles. You could also turn off the converter and transfer the actual (large) MP3 file, pay extra money for MP3 player software for Nokia 3650 and get the same result.

3. If U R in the U.S. & get a good receiption with T-Mobile, then get it from your local dealer for $100 & get your $100 back via Rebate from T-Mobile.

4. 128MB MMC cards. I got RiDATA and Crucial from ebay.com for $40 & $41 including delivery.

5. You can access Internet, play games, send/receive emails/faxes, take photos, record/play videos, play music. The memory is expandable via MMC cards (upto 128MB at a time). Simple to use with icons and joystick operation. Many 3rd party software programs (not expensive).

6. You can easily synchronize your Outlook database and schedules. You can put your business DOCs, presentations (PPT), expense reports and other info onto the MMC cards (no need to carry a computer).

7. Don't worry about the keypad. You don't need it very often, unless you intend to write a novel via this phone.

8. If you are lost at sea, just dial 911 and the built-in GPS will show the police your location.

Does this convince you?

What's this about build in GPS? Anyone else heard of such a thing?

Or are you referring to triangulation? That can be done with any mobile phone but there has to be signal recieved by the phone from at least 2 (better 3) cells for them to do that.

There is a new law in the U.S. All cellular phones MUST have an emergency GPS built-in. As far as I understand, the owner may dial 911 even if batteries are dead, and the police will locate the signal. Owners of older phones can take them to their phone company's dealers and have this feature installed. I believe it is available for 2 months already.

This law was recently passed in reaction to a few months old disaster of 4 teanage boys being stranded at sea and dialing 911 for help. The 911 could get the call but could not locate the signal. All 4 boys drowned, the last one's body was found 2 weeks ago.

I must add one more thing. This is NOT an actual GPS with all it's functions. It is an emergency GPS locator. You don't know where you are, but the police does.

i'd say that 's one good feature you have there....just don't know if it works here.....triangulation works here but i think our service provided disabled its use quite some time ago......

How can you dial if the batteries are dead or if the phone has no reception. Makes no sense. An emergency GPS locator in the phone with a possibiltity of installing it into older phones?

Another thing, this may be a New York state law. For the FCC to pass such a thing would require a HUGE debate, etc. The only Federal agency right now that can tackle on such a thing is Homeland Security and well they would still get so much "Big Brother" fallout from this that it may not be possible at all.

well, when I read vicstone's comment about the GPS and the 911 thing I thought it was a joke... still not sure... quite ellaborate, though

Hello! Guys! Why would I invent such a horrible story?
Click here and read it http://www.nydailynews.com/news/story/85102p-77768c.html

Here it is:

"Mobile phone companies are under orders from the U.S. Federal Communications Commission to incorporate some kind of location-reporting technology into cellular phones. Dubbed E-911, or enhanced 911 (see "Wireless 911 service slowly sppears," link below), the communication initiative is meant to give law enforcement and emergency services personnel a way to find people calling 911 from mobile phones when callers don't know where they are or are unable to say.

No carrier was able to make an October deadline to fully implement E-911. The FCC issued waivers permitting carriers to add location-detection services to new phones over time, so that 95 percent of all mobile phones are compliant with E-911 rules by 2005. "

OK. Now I get it. Still you cannot use this if the cell phone batteries are dead or if you have no cellular coverage. Also this is not GPS but uses cell towers to track the phone. There is no direct communication between the phone and the GPS satellites. It is just a different method of triangulation.
