Empowered is the best word we can think of to describe the tactilesensation of holding the Metro in your hand. As cellphone aficionados,we test our fair share of phones for professional and personal reasons.For us, cellphones that have in the past provided exceptional feel inyour hand quality has been any of the Nokia N series especially theN95. Going farther back, the Siemens S40 felt great to hold as well.We're not big fans on the iPhone though because it's too wide and toothin for our tastes. It feels like you're holding a calculator in yourhands not a mobile phone! The Metro CVFD-M65 on the other hand is theepitome of a compact, yet powerful phone. Besides its swivel screen andQWERTY keyboard really put those brand name phones like the E63, N71,Blackberry, and Blueberry to shame. When I am entering the name of a new contact in my phonebook, what is the maximum number of characters I can use?
You can enter a name that is 14 characters long.Help! I can't get Bluetooth working! What am I doing wrong?
First,there are two places to access Bluetooth. One is in SETTINGS then USERPROFILES. Don't use that route. Instead click on the main menu iconcalled ORGANIZER, then EXTRA, then Bluetooth. You'll be able to toggleBluetooth on and off, search and pair with active devices from there.What kind of operating system does this phone use?
It's called Nucleus RTOS.How hackable is this phone?
If you like to hackthings, by that we mean squeeze more functionality out of a thing thanwas originally intended then this phone is for you. Keep in mind thatany attempts to open up the phone, flash the firmware, basically messwith it, will void the warranty. Having said that, if DIY hacking isyour passion then you might find gsmhosting.com very interesting.Especially the section about Chinese models and cloned phones. Thisphone uses the MediaTek 6225 chip by the way.I think it's great that this Metro mobile phone has anEbook reader, but where on the internet can I download interesting andlegal stuff to read?
One of our favorite sites is: gutenberg.org. All the classics arethere. Bartleby.org is another great site. Also try truly-free.org,wattpad.com, and scribd.com.Where can I download some great free music for this phone?
We love magnatune.com, great music from all genres. Check out Lara StJohn's amazing version of Vivaldi's Four Seasons or DJ Cary's EasternGrooves. Aurgasm.us also has some very delicious tunes.I live in India, can I buy this phone?
No. This phone is not for export to India because of existing OEM agreements.
