a few 9300 questions

I recently bought the 9300 phone and i am sorta happy with it.

i have a few questions

1) how on earth do you switch the language in the message editor with the device open? (mine has the English/Arabic/French firmware)

2) video converter that actually works worthwile.
Thanks to Nokia's 640x200 screen we're all screwed cause nothing fits right on the screen. i mean you cant really strech a new image.

now comes the video part.
is there a wmv player for the device?

3) good software for crying out loud. All the software I am finding on the net is either the same software repeated in a different package and sold by someone else or just useless.
i cant even find a good game to play.

help please

Sorry but can't help with question 1 but from your other questions, it seems to me that you've invested in the wrong machine! This is not a games/video/multimedia-centric device - it's much more a business-use one and from what you say, I would guess you need an S60 3rd Edit. device if these things are high on your priority list. You *can* find S80 software to run video but it's pretty crappy (though Steve L would disagree - see 3lib) and lots of work to get going for a very small picture and jerky sound/video and you really need to invest some time in getting OggPlayer going for music - it's by far the best option for S80.

Also me it seemed the same! 1 - I don�t remenber (I was a 9500); 2 - The wide screen, with only 200 pixels, is not the idel to see movies; 3 - Try here: http://3lib.ukonline.co.uk/nonagss80.htm, at least is freeware!
