newbie as far as posting, but spent weeks reading all of your comments prior to buying E815 (your comments convinced me e815 was the way to go). thanks for all your comments!!! I have read thru all these threads, but can't find the answer I need.
I am waiting for my new 1GB TransFlash card to arrive.....
and in the meantime...needing some ideas on how to convert music i had previously burned (6-8 mo. ago) from my factory-recorded CD's onto Real Player program (that I have burned my own CD's with), long before I bought this phone.

Not a problem, always glad to help where I can. Although I would strongly recommend moving all of your music to mp3 as RM format most likely isn't supposed by 95% of portable music devices.

it's nice to run into folks that are willing to help us newbies who are just learning. i'm a firm believer that it comes back around to you !
I've seen a lot of people on this site who are just looking for a quick answer, but not into doing the research to get there.
for me.... just give me a starting point, and i'll try to take it from there.
thanks for the suggestion....i'll check into doing that. I'm interested in ANY suggestions people can make.

thanks.
