Hi Gena,
The 6630 plays MP3 files already. You can download players from them such
as the Psiloc one http://www.psiloc.com, but they are not very good, and
they are mono. The 6630 does however, play MP3's and let you assign them as
ringtones. The music player is not very advanced though, not like the newer
generation phones, like the N73 and N91 etc.
All the best

Hi
Sorry, haven't read all of these messages. Are you saying that you have =
the 6630? And that you've found some software that enables you to play =
mp3 files? Could you post the details?

Good news! I decided to try putting audible air on my phone (I actually
ended up with audible manager, don't know what the difference
is) and once I'd freed up some memory it worked and I can play audible
files. My SD card is so small it will only hold 2 hours of audio, but I've
just bought a 2GB one from eBay so I'm happy. I also bought a new battery
in case mine is faulty and that is why it runs down so quickly. So in a
couple of days I'll have a fully functioning accessible audible player.
Thanks for all your help.
Emma
