Serene again...
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 30, 2011 14:19Thanks Guys. Evan, I agree, I really love the Serene and part of the reason I bought it was - ironically - because it was a simple, basic phone. I wanted a phone to make and receive calls, not browse the internet, send t…
Serene again...
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 29, 2011 04:24[quote user="Evan"] Hello Greg, I have a Serene but never used it for emails. I now have a data plan on my cell service and could try it out on my Serene. I use my Serene less and less these days and right now it is park…
Serene again...
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 29, 2011 04:17[quote user="vikinger"] Greg, Firmware downloads and manuals are here on the Samsung site. Graham [/quote] Thanks Graham. In fact that manual is the same as the B&O one as far as I can tell, but with the B&O branding rem…
Serene again...
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 28, 2011 13:31Now come on, no need to be unpleasant. I thought you were one of the many on here that beats up on the Serene for not being "proper" B&O - which I guess it isn't, but it's far from the only B&O-badged product in that cat…
Serene again...
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 28, 2011 04:33HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA !!! Hilarious. Don't give up your day job, though, eh! (In any case, the Samsung branded version SGH-E910 isn't known to T-mobile either). Seriously though, is anyone still using their Serene? …
Serene again...
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 28, 2011 03:11Yes, I have the manual, but I don't think it helps. I've had the Serene since new in 2006 and for years was able to pick up email on it, in an emergency. I've noticed recently it no longer works and I suspect it's more l…
Serene again...
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 23, 2011 13:42Can anyone help me set up my Serene (on T-mobile) to receive emails? Pretty sure I have my email account settings correct, and it has worked fine in the past, but I now only get to "Retrieving..." and then get a "Server …
Serene problem
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 18, 2011 12:11I actually just found a thread from 2007 where a couple of people had experienced the problem. Would be great to find out if anyone managed to get it fixed, or whether I will need to finally retire the Serene.
Serene problem
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 18, 2011 11:40My beloved Serene, my main personal phone since 2006, seems to have developed a fault: after being on a call for a couple of minutes, all of a sudden the sound starts to break up and becomes distorted and echoing. Ending…
Where is BeoSound8 made?
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 20, 2010 14:03To think I was considering opening a B&O store a while back... thank goodness the wise people here talked me out of it. I really despair of B&O's future - if it has a future. Recent products have been disappointing to sa…
Any chance of an updated BeoSound1?
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 20, 2010 06:07[quote user="stevnp"] Go for the BS1-even if, and it's a big if, FM is switched off, it's unlikely that it will be before 2020. Someone will probably come up with a DAB to FM converter allowing you to to tune to FM frequ…
Any chance of an updated BeoSound1?
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 20, 2010 06:04Thanks guys - yes, I think we will go with Beosound 1 and not worry about DAB. It looks, feels and sounds better than the Bose, and costs quite a bit less than the (rather ugly) Meridian. Also, I've had a Century perform…
Any chance of an updated BeoSound1?
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 19, 2010 10:21Well, sure, she can get radio stations from the internet using her Mac, never mind an app, and of course play CDs on it too. So really she could just hook up the Mac to any number of excellent speakers already available …
Any chance of an updated BeoSound1?
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 18, 2010 15:23[quote user="symmes"] The BeoSound 8 is the new kid in town. [/quote] But that's just an iPod dock, isn't it? No CD, no Radio (of any kind). I seriously wonder where B&O is going :-(
Any chance of an updated BeoSound1?
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 18, 2010 13:02My wife would like a nice compact self-contained CD player and radio for her home office, which she could also use as wireless computer speakers by connecting an AirPort Express to the AUX IN. The BeoSound 1 seems almost…
iPad is here!!!!!
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 29, 2010 07:36[quote user="elephant"] Iworks was rewritten from scratch *ouch* [/quote] Remember the iPhone OS is in reality a version of OS X and much of the code is the same. Following up on some other points... the 64Gb capacity is…

in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 28, 2010 12:27Loving all the priceless PC guys pointing out that it doesn't run Flash... Yeah! It doesn't even have a floppy drive! It sucks! 😁
iPad is here!!!!!
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 28, 2010 12:20[quote user="Puncher"] It would make a splendid controller for an DAW - I can't see the Lemur surviving this! [/quote] Yes, that it would. I briefly tried something similar on the iPod touch but of course you could only …
Serenata Owners
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 26, 2009 07:07Well I guess I should chip in here! Per my other post, I was lucky enough to win a Serenata in the prize draw. It's certainly a unique and unusual thing. In some ways it feels like it's from the past, certainly compared …
