Welcome
Nice one.
You’re now the proud owner of an O2X4.
Apart from a top mobile, you’ve bought yourself a shed
load of benefits and services that’ll keep you ahead of the
game for a good while yet.
There’s the 1.3 megapixel camera (with flash) that can take
pictures worthy of the mind blowing 262,000 colours that
the O2X4 colour screen can handle.
xiii
At last the perfect combination; hi-res camera + hi-res
screen = quality pix that you can show and send to people
without having to attach an explanation of what they’re
meant to be.
Not just stills though, the O2X4 is so smart that it lets you
record and play video as well.
Now you can really do your personal messages justice.
It’s also a really good music player on which to store and
play your own MP3 files with an expanded memory pack
so you can store more of whatever you want.
Welcome
Your O2X4 also holds the key to the
whole world of O2Active services. At
3G speeds* you can access streaming
video footage from all sorts of sources
news, sporting highlights and music.
And because your O2X4 links directly
to your PC using its own cable, you can
upload and download files to your
heart’s content.†
It’s been our pleasure to develop the
O2X4, we hope it’s your pleasure to
use it.
* Subject to 3G coverage.
