Can anyone confirm the following:

1 - can email be set to auto-download every x mins
2 - can you specify to only download x KB of every email
3 - is the SD slot SDIO
4 - will most series 60 software work on this phone

Thanks

1) Use Active Mail from Cibenix.

2) see 1)

3) The slot is SD only. Early test models did have SDIO, but as there is no standard from factor for SDIO, it couldn;t be accomodated in the case to Sendo's satisfaction.

4) YEs, it's 6.1, so pretty much all Series 60 software will run.

As far as i know all symbian software should work as far as downloading emails hey if it doesn't exist now someone will program it at some time.

I think even the built in Email client will do what you need. Aswell as having the ability to handle up to 6 email accounts 😊

I really hope points 1 & 2 are built in without the need for 3rd party apps.

The Series 60 (v0.9-v2.0, at least, which is what's out) built-in Messaging application doesn't do scheduled downloads or downloads by size, etc.

For that functionality additional apps like the one mentioned are needed.

Not really. They've added a few features & apps, but they haven't done any major re-engineering of default Series 60 applications.

SD only supports memory cards, no add-ons

SDIO stands for SecureDigital-INPUT/OUTPUT and supports memory cards AND add-ons
For example, if the X would have a SDIO slot, it could support stuff like and SD WLAN-card, and an SD camera (I know there is one integrated, but it could be possible 😉)
