Thanks so much for your input!

Cheers,

Still, 1GB MicroSD cards aren't exactly expensive... :-)
Im thinking about getting this phone but there seems to be a few things i would like to know which ive had problems in previous phones with..
under extreme lighting conditions such as a very very sunny day, can you still see the screen?.. ive had this happen to me with motorola v3 and it was like hell trying to use it on holiday because the light just reflected back and turned the screen into a mirror lol... and.. its weird that i dont see sideways directional buttons.. how do u go across?... or does it only let u scroll down and select..
In answer to your questions:
1. If you put the phone on 'Power Save' mode you can't see it very well on sunny days. If you keep it on normal mode it's visible. :-)
2. There's two buttons to the side of the scroll wheel that let you go across when navigating - fairly easy to use!
When you watch a video you have recorded its really small like thumbnail size when its got a massive screen, can you view whole screen?
Is there a shortcut key when taking a photo to turn the flash on, or like the nokia n70 is there an auto flash??
When taking and when you have taken a photo can you zoom in and out ?
Can you password protect folders that contains photo's and video's ? (not phone lock or pin code)
Can you purchase a Dock Station / Speakers??
1. I haven't actually watched any videos on my phone yet!
2. I don't know of any such shortcut key for the flash, unfortunately.
3. I don't think you can zoom when taking a photo, and I haven't found a way that you can zoom when viewing one either. I haven't got a manual, but I should imagine such a feature would be documented, if it were possible, in there.
4. I don't think you can add a password protection on your photos (why, what you hiding? ;-)
5. I haven't seen a dock - isn't it just Sony that do that at the moment?
Sorry I haven't been of help. I'm using it just as a phone and occasional camera, really. If and when I want some more advanced features, I'll probably go back to my Smartphone...
Any recommendations? Help, help!...
Thanks!
2. No shortcut key for flash, but it's easy to access from the camera on-screen menu
3. Navigation key up and down zooms in and out
4. No
5. No
has anyone got the Shine working within Vista already?
I just can't seem to find any working driver .....
Thanks in advance,

To view videos full screen, move to the video thumbnail, hit options and choose Landscape Mode
it was posted by someone else up above ^^
Ive been trying to get videos full screen on this phone, but when I goto to options you've only got theres to choose from:
1.play
2.delete
3.send via
4.file
5.new folder
6.multi delete
7.delete all.
Doesnt seem my phone has the option at all, and its defniietly the KE970. Can anyone help plz?
I'm using LG Shine but failed to sync address book with iSync on my MBP.
The only solution is use bluetooth to trasfer the business card one by one to the phone.
Anyone knows a better way?
BTW, the built in SWF flash wallpapers are cool but i tried dwnloading some 240x320 SWF frm the net and send to phone, it appears n OTHER instead of IMAGE, so i can't view it or set them as wallpaper. Anyone knows how to do it?
Sorry if this was in any way misleading, it was unintentional. This review was for the benefit of those in the edtech community, for which that particular feature is not particularly important... :-)
