I got given the phone & it looked good but I don't have a manual to go with it. I check on the Internet but don't have it in English, I was wondering how can I get hold of the manual in English. If anyone can help me, please let me know.

I have this phone for over a year & I bought in France. This is the best design phone I've ever seen. It's really beautiful with one hour video recording that you can connect also to TV. It has an FM also & a 3G. Trust me, this is very rare & not available in UK or US & other country but you can buy only this in FRANCE or Italy. The design of this phone is more magnificent than the newest phones like the Nokia N95.
