Hi,

have any of you guys found any decent replacement headphones for the SPL or better yet a 3,5mm adapter that goes into the utterly stupid usb-connector?

...can't wait for WM6

I don't think the "call" word overlaps in any way on my phone but all the contact info and such are shown when someone calls.
You could try some kind of contacts software like PhotoContacts from pocketx or similar, http://www.pocketx.net
Then you have more options for customizing how the screen should look when receiving calls.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help...

Good news people, it seems like we are going to get WM6 for the SPL soon

this is the reply I got from i-mate support:

Dear Customer,

Thank you for contacting Clubimate European Technical Support.

With regards to your query, yes, there is going to be a ROM upgrade for your I-mate SPL but we are working on it and in the near future the ROM version with WM6 is going to be on our website available for all customers.

Best regards,

Adrian Mihai Mirt

So, now I'm on the support pages every day to check if they have posted the ROM update

I use CeleTask, a freeware that works fine for me.

You can download it at: http://www.yonsm.net/CeleTask/CeleTask.2.0.rar

Hi again,

after using the SPL for a little bit longer and installing a task manager (celetask) I am starting to enjoy the phone a bit more.
It all got better when I uninstalled the included antivirus software, at least it feels a bit quicker now. Still not as fast as the Qtek 8310 that I had before but still better than earlier.
I really like the shape of the SPL and the size is very nice, It goes down in a pocket easily, too bad they used the USB- port on the side for the headset. As mentioned earlier in the thread it's really annoying and in the way, not to mention that I can't use my own headphones. If anyone has a tip on an adapter that goes in the usb- port and lets me use 3,5mm heaphones I would appreciate it

well, that's my two cents of the day

Hi,

I got my new SPL a couple days ago and it's a quite ok phone but not much more. I had a Qtek 8310 before (that I broke) and the SPL seems a lot slower and the fact that it takes the headphnes from the mini-usb port that is located on the side isn't very good since you can't use your own headphones and the connector sticks out from the side.
Aside from that it seems to work fine, the shape and size is great, the materials give a feeling of quality. It has a couple of bugs such as when you have it plugged to the computer with the usb cable and unplug it to use the usb headphones it plays the musik through the internal speaker until you reboot it (don't really know why this happens, but it does it every time).
Another annoying thing is that i-mate's site won't let me register the phone since it seems to be to new and doesn't appear in their lists yet, but I'm sure they will fix that soon...

Overall I like the phone but miss the WiFi i had in the 8310 and get a little bit annoyed at the slower speed in the phone (and it doesn't have a task manager either so I will have to install a freeware version of that)..

With regards,

Anders
