Motorola V710
MP3's
ok...alltel subscriber here...having trouble with getting MP3's onto my phone...what exactly am i wanting to go through...the songs that i want to put on are either in Itunes or Windows Media Player...am i able to load them onto the SD disk through either of those...ive also heard so send an email to my phone...trying to figure that one out as well...any info would be helpful...thanks

This phone can only play MP3's or midi's. i-tunes or any other format does not work. Unfortunately for i-Pod owners, any music you puchased thru i-Tunes will not be playable on this phone unless you get a converter. Apple has a way of coming out with cool things, but screwing the user by being proprietary. I sold my i-pod in favor of creative's nomad series and can x-fer songs back and forth to this phone with no issues at all. If you wanted a phone that played i-tunes, the only 2 I know of are the ROKR and the new SLVR. I don't know if these are available thru your carrier.
Hope this helps.

All of the audio software I've used (Realplayer etc.) creates MP3 files when you rip a CD. These are "actual" MP3s and work on the V710. In fact, I-tunes uses it's own proprietary format and all the other legitimate download purchase sites (Napster, yahoo, Walmart etc.) use WMA's, niether of which work on the V710. This means that the only source of music for V710 is to rip them off of CD's or download them from the illegal sites (Kaaza etc.)

If you are using a transflash card, you would simply write these to the card and insert it into the phone. The phone itself only has about 7mb memory, which would be taken up with 3 or 4 songs. BTW, a program called JetAudio has an audio conversion program which will convert wma's, wav's, and cda's to mp3's (won't do i-Tunes, sorry :-( )
...
I forgot to mention, you do need to insert the TF card into the phone, format it, then write your tunes to it.
