Just got my K750i and lovin´ it
So I just gave my father my "old" K700i and bought myself the lovely K750i. The camera is MUCH better (2 Mpixels) and it uses memory cards. But the next best thing about it is the design. I love the simplicity it has taken from the T630. The K700 design was a dead end. Everything else is mere evolutions over the K700.
So better telephone all over in a better package and with a killer (at least for a telephone) camera.
But here is the best part. Brace yourself. Because when the 3.0 version of Salling Clicker comes the usefulness of this telephone is going to quadruple. Can´t go into details. But GODDAMMIT you are going to LOOOOOOOOVE this.
Buy the phone, and bookmark www.salling.com and check it more often than you pee.

I just got a K750i last week, and was really bummed that Salling didn't work - I only bought it about 2 weeks ago to use with my T630, and assumed it would work with the K750i. I hope the new version is free. Love my K750i too, but would prefer if the design on the back was a bit simpler and a bit smoother. Ideally I wouldn't have a camera at all, but if I have to have one, then I wish they could make it look cleaner at the back.

According to his front page it will be a free upgrade. You are gonna love it and the wait is over very soon.

I agree. If I could have had mine without the camera I would have gone with that. A 2 megapixel camera is the second best
At least you didn´t have to live with the UGLY K700i. Thats really got a beating with he ugly stick.

Excellent, I look forward to the update. Ye, I preferred my T630 over the K700i - was a nice bit of kit. I really wanted a Nokia 8800, but it was a bit out of my price league!
Yes, it's nifty. But from Anders' build up I was expecting nifty x infinity. Am I missing something?

Okay, I've got my K750i and it's looking mean and black, I've downloaded the new version of Salling and dug out my serial code from version 1 which I bought to do a Keynote presentation a while back. I mucked around with iTunes for a bit.

Ye, it is good, but for me, more of a toy. BluePhoneElite is a genuinely useful bluetooth accessory for me - much quicker to type texts on my computer! Pity the interface in the latter is a little drab for my taste. I'll buy it next week anyway.

Never noticed that before. Can't get it to work just now though with my K750i. Has anyone had any joy with that?
I understand the K700i UI is bad and lags like my T68i. If I understood you guys correctly, the UI on T630 or K750 is better. In what way? How does transfer of files to and from Mac work with the newer phones? I managed to backup my ringtones from the T68i, but I could not backup call recordings, which totally sucks.
Last thing, about the call recording feature. Can you set it to automatically record all calls on the K700i, T630, K750 just like IRC/IM software log everything? I would really like that, and although the T68 has recording, it can't be switched permanently on.
Front Row + Bluetooth Phone + Salling Clicker = no need for Apple's IR remote?

Yeah. I thought the same when I saw the webcast.
Perhaps Salling could write an app that could do the same as front row. Or team up with someone who could.

Which looks a little bit busy from the screenshots, but maybe they could take a bit more 'inspiration' from Apple now that Front Row is out.
And it's not just Salling Clicker:

Bump bump, and managed this with a K750i? Address book connects to my phone (the button goes blue, and my phone shows the bluetooth logo) but if I try to dial using the popup menu, or send a text, nothing happens. Any ideas?
I just got the old SE K750 of my small brother, he desperately needed a new phone.
I encountered a problem with Salling Clicker. I need to turn the Apple BT keyboard and Apple BT mouse of, or Salling can't establish a connection. Once connected I can turn the Keyboard and mouse back on.
Do you have the same problem?

I've found that with Salling it does not connect unless you are close, but it is fine after that. I have never needed to disconnect keyboard and mouse though. There are known issues with Salling and the K750i which are being addressed according to their site.
Thanks,
Dave.

I've just got a K750i, and it's a great phone. One question though... I used iSync to get my address book contacts and iCal entries moved to the phone. Some of the address book contacts have birthday entries, and they are subsequently shown in iCal using the "Show birthdays calendar" prefs option, and although the iCal entries have been copied over, the contacts on the phone don't have the birthday entered against them. Has anyone else noticed this, and is there a solution?
Thanks,
Dave.
As far as I know, they just show up in the calendar, not beside the contact details.

Oh well, not to worry. I ended up resyncing everything, but didn't include the birthdays calendar, then entered the birthdays against the contacts. I wonder what will happen next time I sync?
Or should I be looking at the newer k800?
Thanks
