Nokia 6280 - Some Questions

    Just got this phone and am impressed - apart from the size of the memory card though.
    I have a couple of questions if anyone can answer.

    1 : When i am watching videos and have to stop half way through one i cant get back to that point on the media player when i go back to it later that day. Thats infuriating when you are 20 mins into a half hour video. Is there any third party video viewer available for this phone?

    2 : Is it possible to transfer podcasts via bluetooth to the phone automatically as they are downloaded, rather than having to manuall transfer them from the PC to the phone.
    Thanks

    AFAIK with the series 40 operating system on the 6280 you are limited to installing java apps only. i have noticed an authentication issue with some apps not having access to features such as camera and bluetooth and filesytem also.

    Given that it should be possible to write a java app to play movies on a phone i would imagine there is one out there although i cant say where.

    As for the podcasts, not having itunes on the phone its going to be difficult. i have found the Nokia PC suite that comes with the 6280 terrible... it is very heavy on resourses when there is no need and it crashes often too.
    I have noticed that you cannot reference the filesystem locations within windows exployer, amd must browse ttru the nokia software. This would suggest that the filesysytems are different in which case you would need a specific nokia application to do what you are asking.
    So all evidence points towards this not goin to work.

    This is only my oponion and I could be wrong....
    I hope this is of some help !

    Thanks guys.
    I also noticed that when i install java games they only use the top left quarter of the screen. I wonder is this just because they are in a lower resolution than the phone screen.
