I just bought this phone today. I wanted to add some videos off my memory card onto the computer but could not manage it. Anyone know how?

The camera is superb & the motion changes is good, it is definitely a must have phone.

I just got this phone, it's absolutely amazing. It has great features & is very easy to use. But there is one problem, when you turn the speaker to full the song will get a little distorted, but apart from that it's great.

I know I have a great well made phone. LG make the strongest phones I know. My friend has the LG KF700 & it fell out of her pocket whilst she was on her moped (at 40MPH) the phone has a few scratches around the edge, none on the screen & it still works fine, I was amazed. Also my other friend dropped their LG shine in the swimming pool, & with one night in the airing cupboard it works fine again. So whatever I do to my phone I know it won't break.
