Sometime I wonder if I can really call my MPx200 a Smartphone!!! Some of the really usefull features are available on the regular ( NOT SO SMART ) phones.
These are
 Create new folders in In-box
 Even if the phone is switched off; at the time of alarm set it comes to life and gives the alarm
 Can play Polyphonic Ring tones
 One time selection is reqd for SMS delivery reports
 Can copy sent messages on SIM

These are missing on the SMART one.

With respect, that's your opinion wink.gif

1. SMS was never intended to be a stored message service. Read 'em and delete 'em !
2. The phone alarm is handy but I'd always prefer a proper clock. Even so, leaving the phone on and charging overnight is a good idea anyway.
3. The ability to play wav files means you can hear whatever you want when someone calls.
4. The phone is Smart because of all the other things it can do - media player, games, GPS, GPRS etc

 Create new folders in In-box

You can for email via Outlook

 Even if the phone is switched off; at the time of alarm set it comes to life and gives the alarm

You need the operating system to use the alarm

 Can play Polyphonic Ring tones

Why use polyphonic when you can use the real sound and not an emulated one?

 One time selection is reqd for SMS delivery reports

Fixed in newer phones and the dodgy 2003 rom

 Can copy sent messages on SIM

Why copy messages onto the SIM when you can copy to the PC with unlimited storage.
