Some simple, newbish questions about NGage!

1) You have a total of 4mb of STORAGE (roughly 3.4mb free after the default stuff is in place) and 16mb of RAM for program execution

2) It's a SIM card - and tells the network who you are and who to bill for calls

3) Yes it's possible. Search the forum for the3 answer

4) Yes, call up T-NMobile and I'm sure they'll take some money from you

5) It's in SETTINGS DEVICE STANDBY BACKGROUND-IMAGE

I Bought A Belkin Usb Bluetooth Unit For My Computer And Installed It Ok, My Problem Began When I Tried To Pair It, My N-gage As For A Number Code For My Computer, I Dont Use A Number Code For My Computer And When I Tried To Use My Computer To Connect To My N-gage It Ask For A Code Too! Pls Help Me

Hi

New to this forum (having just got n-gage yesterday) and have done searches and like blindpilot can't find answer to question 3 on these forums. I have found information at the en-gaged site on "Pairing with a PC" and "Internet via Bluetooth" so is this is how it is done? (I assume there is no way to somehow connect direct through my wireless router i.e. with PC switched off).

Thanks for any advice.

Dunno if this is standard but i was asked for a code when i paired my PC and N-Gage, knowing i didnt have one i just made one up, same one for both devices to pair it up, jobs a good un.

I want N-Gage, but I dont think Ill use the phone feature (too poor to pay for it) do I need a cell phone plan in order to use N-Gage or can I just buy the game deck to play games? I dont have a job yet, so I cant pay for the monthly fees for a cell phone, so this is detirmining whether I get an N-Gage or not!

Yes, you can use the deck without cellular activation. You can use the Bluetooth to share your home internet if you want to get online or access the Arena. I dont plan on activating mine either, since I have already sold my soul to a CDMA celluar company.

AFAIK, this is the only mobile entertainment device on the market for less than $200. Very much worth the price.

So the QD (thats the one thats 200 right?) comes with a dummy SIM card or somthing?

Yep, it does. If you buy one from a retail store (ie Gamestop, EBGames), it will be locked to T-Mobile, and will have a T-Mobile stamped SIM in the box. If you buy from Cingular or T-Mobile directly, of course it will be locked to their service. None of this matters to us, since we wont be using the phone function anyway.

Long story short, yes, buy it, have fun. 😃
