Okay, but seen betterfun phone = easy to use and nice for basic phone and text features - very poor range of games currently available for this phone and the camera is pretty poor with no flash - good value for the money if games and camera are not important to you

Okay, but seen betterGot the phone a few days back, and it provides a great user experience. However we noted a few bugs, which are detailed below. I would appreciate it if other owners of KP500 try this, and let us know if you also face the same bugs.
Bug1:
I used the calendar widget to enter some appointments and birthdays. However when trying to access a date from the widget calendar to see the appointments, the phone reboots. It shows the LG logo and comes back to main screen.
Bugs 2: Calendar entries:
1 .when I save any appointment either as an anniversary or birthday and set the repeat as annual, it puts around 14 days of additional entries for the same appointment in all the subsequent months - 14 in Jan, 14 in Feb and so on.
2. I then changed the repeat to once and saved it, but that caused the whole appointment to be deleted from the calendar
3. I saved an appointment as repeating weekly and it saved just fine. However if you give an expiration date for the recurring appointment, then the whole appoitnment is deleted from the calendar
Bug 3: Alarm
I have saved a second alarm on my phone. However when the 2nd alarm rings, it shows the name/text from the 1st alarm, which reads Morning Alarm
Bug 4: Syncing with Outlook
I tried to use the sync tools to upload my contact list. I tried to upload from Outlook 2000 on my home computer, and Outlook 2003 in my laptop. It does not work with either. It starts to sync, reads all the contacts in Outlook (around 293 contacts), and then disconnects connection to the phone and provides a message that 'Synchronisation failed', but does not provide any comments/feedback about why it failed
We are still checking out all the features and will post more bugs as we find it. I am however keen to know if anyone else is facing the same problems

Okay, but seen betterI've bought the new LG Cookie (KP500) from the carphone warehouse. I would say this is the best phone I have ever had, apart from one thing - it did not allow my partner to text me!?? Car phone warehouse were bery unhelpful, and o2 did their best to help. I have had the phone replaced, and the same problem is happening with this 2nd LG Cookie. If anyone knows how i can recitfy this, please help. I get the odd text, but the phone seemes to have blocked the rest, particuarly long texts that take up two texts.

Okay, but seen better The KS360 does not have a touchscreen display, it also lacks an alphanumeric keypad. This might be a serious downside, especially when it comes to dialing numbers, as the only numeric keys are on the QWERTY keyboard - which, unless slid out, it stays hidden under the display of the handset. Get the cookie
